#4: Daniel Bryan
Daniel Bryan's return to the ring has been the feel-good story of 2018, and while his initial booking has not been the strongest, there is plenty to suggest that he will go on to become a main-event figure once again in 2019.
Bryan is clearly held in high regard by 2K, with the company creating a mode on the game focused solely on Bryan's career in WWE 2K19.
The game has, thus far, been well received by critics and there has been plenty of love for Bryan's game-mode. If the game proves to be a success financially, the company could credit that to Bryan and decide to go with him as the cover star of next year's game.
