5 Superstars who can succeed Drew McIntyre as WWE Champion

#4 AJ Styles

The Phenomenal AJ Styles is no stranger to being WWE Champion

AJ Styles is undoubtedly one of the top Superstars on Monday Night RAW. The Phenomenal One received rave reviews from fans and critics for his Boneyard Match with The Undertaker at WrestleMania 36.

Styles last held the WWE title when he was part of the SmackDown brand, and no one can deny that another run as WWE Champion for The O.C. member is a possibility. Styles is a heel, so a feud with a face Drew McIntyre will work very well.

The former has faced a lot of big names like John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Undertaker, Chris Jericho and more, so he definitely has the credibility to dethrone McIntyre.

#3 Edge

Edge could be WWE Champion once again

The Rated-R Superstar Edge made a shocking return at Royal Rumble where he competed in his first match after a nine-year absence from in-ring competition. With his big return, there are a lot of Superstars we would love to see him face in WWE.

Think about all the dream matches we could have now that Edge is back. One other thing that Edge could get back is the WWE Championship, a title he has held several times. The WWE Hall of Famer won't be wrestling for very long, so a final run as WWE Champion before his final retirement could be possible.

Edge vs Drew McIntyre could turn out to be a very good match, and with the main title on the line, the stakes will be even higher.
