5 unlikely superstars who could be future WWE Champions

#3 Rusev

Rusev at a WWE Live Event

Rusev made his debut as an unstoppable force. He ran roughshod over the roster and held the US Title with an iron grip. He seemed destined to rise up the ranks and be in the main event.

For reasons best known to them, WWE creative managed to kill the heat he had. Then following his hair cutting incident, he fell off the radar completely, stuck with a silly Rusev Day gimmick.

To his credit, he is making it work. His social media activity has shown him to be witty and his promos have always been great.

Rusev day could surprisingly be what propels Rusev to the World Title scene. This is because it is incredibly over with the WWE Universe.
