#2. Drew McIntyre

Speaking of whom! Drew McIntyre has enjoyed a brilliant run as WWE Champion so far and WWE has been top-notch with their booking of McIntyre, ever since they decided to turn him a babyface, to winning the Royal Rumble, and eventually slay 'The Beast' Brock Lesnar to win the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 36. Christian himself is a two-time former WWE World Heavyweight Champion, but 'Captain Charisma' never had the privilege of holding the WWE Championship in his prestigious career.

While there is totally no need for Christian to win the WWE Title at this stage of his career, I'm pretty sure fans definitely wouldn't mind seeing the former ECW Champion challenge McIntyre for the WWE Title.

McIntyre's reign as WWE Champion has been great so far and the company creative has done a formidable job with 'The Scottish Psychopath', who has successfully defended the title against The Big Show, Seth Rollins, and very recently against Bobby Lashley at Backlash.

Having Christian put McIntyre over would solidify the latter's place as WWE Champion and would benefit the Scotsman a lot.
