2: Champion?
With Cass firmly set as a crowd favorite with Carmella by his side, he would begin his quest to earn his first title in the WWE. Remember, Enzo and Cass were shockingly never NXT Tag Team Champions.
Cass could go after the US title belt, which desperately needs a boost. Kalisto’s reign has done nothing whatsoever for it. Even though Cass won’t be the most experienced, his run as a champion could be very interesting. It’s fresh, and that’s very important. Who wants to see Randy Orton and Sheamus trudging after a title again? The answer is no one.
Imagine Big Cass going head to head with John Cena for the US Championship in a face vs face match. It would cement Cass as a player in the WWE. If face vs face is a dynamic that the WWE doesn’t want to go with, he could feud with a heel champion like Jericho, Rusev or Owens.
