Top 5 Favourites To Become The Next Universal Champion

#3. Drew McIntyre

Drew McIntyre could be a huge threat to Brock Lesnar's title reign.

Since his return to WWE's main roster after Wrestlemania 34, Drew McIntyre has been on a great run. He captured the RAW tag team championship with Dolph Ziggler, put forward numerous great matches throughout the year, and solidified himself as a top-tier competitor in the WWE food chain.

The next destination for the Scottish Psychopath is the Universal Championship held by Brock Lesnar. However, owing to the lack of opportunities, McIntyre has not yet crossed paths with the beast since his return.

However, according to most of the betting sites, Drew McIntyre could be well on the way to Suplex City. The Celtic Colossus has a solid 3/1 odds in favour of him to become the next Universal Champion. McIntyre could win the Royal Rumble match or even claim his opportunity in some other ways.
