#1 Rusev

One of WWE's most popular stars in recent years, it baffles many why Rusev hasn't already been a World Champion.
A solid hand in the ring, and charismatic on the mic, the Bulgarian seemingly has it all to be a Superstar, but has often found himself in pointless feuds.
This has clearly affected Rusev, who has teased leaving the company several times, and could do just that in 2019.
Even if the WWE don't consider him the face of the company, keeping him on SmackDown as a heel is great.
A Money in the Bank victory would easily push the popular mid-carder to the next level, as though he did receive a mini push last Christmas, it came and went remarkably quickly.
A popular star who is good for international PR, WWE should be treating the Bulgarian better.
