5 dream competitors for WWE World Cup

WWE has announced another PPV in Saudi Arabia after organising the sold-out 'The Greatest Royal Rumble' on 27th April. It is part of the deal WWE signed with the Saudi Sports Authority earlier this year.

Earlier this year, there were reports that the SSA had signed a 45 million dollar deal with WWE. WWE could use this revenue to promote other budding wrestling ventures like NXT UK and the 205 Live division. Also, WWE is trying to talk about getting women to wrestle in the Arabian sub-continent.

The next PPV in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is the Crown Jewel PPV on November 2nd of this year. WWE has announced a tournament/match called WWE World Cup which will eventually reveal the best wrestler of the world.

Every PPV in Saudi Arabia has a unique match. The Greatest Royal Rumble had the 50-man Royal Rumble match, and this match/tournament is an amazing idea as well, produced by WWE to garner more attention from all around the world.

WWE is likely to bring in surprise competitors to compete in this tournament, but here are a few dream wrestlers who hardcore wrestling fans will love to see in this World Cup tournament.

#5 Seth Rollins

The Kingslayer will slay the competition

Who can disagree with this? Rollins is the best the RAW brand has right now. His wrestling prowess has been proven again and again because of the stupendous matches he puts up every week on RAW.

The Architect is one of the best wrestlers in WWE, and his technical and high flying abilities are flawless. He always manages to put up amazing matches, and he can be one of the wrestlers participating in the WWE World Cup. If the very motive of this tournament is to derive the best wrestler in the world. Then why not Rollins?

#4 AJ Styles

The Phenomenal one can shock everyone with his veteran skills

No list about the best wrestlers in the world is complete without having AJ Styles in it. The 41-year-old wrestler has proved his mettle in NJPW, TNA, and WWE. He hasn't allowed his age to overpower his skills as a wrestler. He has impressed everyone with the enormous bag of skills that he possesses, and it is almost next to impossible to get bored in a match that features 'The Phenomenal One'.

After the brand split, Styles has built the blue brand, and he has proudly carried his empire on his shoulders almost single-handedly. If the World Cup is to determine the best wrestler in the world, then why not Styles?

#3 Johnny Gargano

Garga-no-escape

The ultimate face of the NXT roster can make his main roster debut or represent NXT for the WWE World Cup. Gargano has proven his wrestling abilities on NXT by delivering matches that have taken the developmental brand to another level. He is a fantastic technician and a good brawler.

Johnny Wrestling, as the fans call him, can be a good contender for the WWE World Cup because he is talented and famous, that could also give him more push to become a famous WWE Superstar.

#2 Kenny Omega

Omega can change the game if he debuts in WWE

Kenny Omega is considered one of the best wrestlers in the world. He has made NJPW a household name, and he has given it the recognition it requires. The Canadian wrestler who has Japanese citizenship can work wonders and deliver amazing matches.

Omega has never said no to WWE, and we could see him appear in WWE anytime in the future. I don't think there is any other wrestler who has garnered so much popularity without working in WWE. He comes up with different classes of technical moves and sequences which engages the crowd and takes the match to the next level.

If Omega is planning to come to WWE, then the WWE Crown Jewel could be a perfect debut, and the WWE World Cup can be the best match/tournament.

#1 Kazuchika Okada

The best in the world

Kazuchika Okada will undoubtedly be the most interesting person to be seen in WWE. He is the cornerstone of NJPW, and he will ace the WWE World Cup. Okada's fourth reign at 720+ days is the longest in the championship’s history, and he also holds the record for most successful title defences at 12.

Between the ropes, The Rainmaker is an exceptional performer. He thrives at building main-event matches and demonstrates versatility. He is an avant-garde wrestler, and he has created a name for himself on the pro wrestling scene.

If WWE is going to decide the best wrestler in the world without having Okada participating in it, then the entire match is going to be a fluke, and it won't hold much of an importance.
