In a recent article, we trawled through the WWE record books and found out that eight Superstars are yet to win a match in 2019, with Zelina Vega and Shelton Benjamin among those on the list.
This week, we decided to take an alternative look at the win/loss records over the last few months to find a selection of Superstars who have remained undefeated in televised matches throughout the year so far.
At this stage in 2018, for example, Cedric Alexander was the only full-time Superstar whose winning streak was still intact four months into the year, while part-timers Brock Lesnar and Ronda Rousey were also undefeated.
In 2019, there has been just as much WWE programming as 2018, with three-hour episodes of Raw and two-hour episodes of SmackDown Live, as well as stacked pay-per-view cards, while the addition of NXT UK to the weekly schedule has given WWE another brand to build up Superstars' undefeated streaks.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
With that in mind, let’s take a look at five Superstars/teams who are yet to lose on WWE television in 2019.
#5 Roman Reigns
Five months on from being diagnosed with leukemia for the second time, Roman Reigns returned to in-ring action at the Fastlane pay-per-view in March, teaming with Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose to defeat Baron Corbin, Bobby Lashley and Drew McIntyre.
The rivalry between Reigns and McIntyre continued after Fastlane, with the Scot assaulting the four-time WrestleMania main-eventer on an episode of Raw. The two men went on to face each other in a one-on-one match at WrestleMania, which “The Big Dog” won to maintain his undefeated 2019 record.
Since then, Reigns has only competed in one more televised match, teaming with Rollins and AJ Styles to defeat Corbin, Lashley and McIntyre, while he went on to pick up multiple victories against the same makeshift trio at live events alongside his fellow Shield members.
As of the time of writing, Reigns is yet to compete in a match on SmackDown Live since moving to the brand in the Superstar Shake-Up, but he is currently scheduled to face Elias in a one-on-one match at Money In The Bank on May 19.
#4 WALTER
Pete Dunne was confronted by the debuting WALTER following his United Kingdom Championship defence against Joe Coffey at NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool in January 2019.
WALTER went on to win singles matches against Jack Starz and Mark Coffey at the January tapings of NXT UK, as well as two dark matches against Danny Burch and Kassius Ohno at the Worlds Collide taping over Royal Rumble weekend, while he teamed with Dunne to defeat Joe & Mark Coffey in February.
The mighty Austrian showcased his talent in front of the wider WWE audience for the first time over WrestleMania 35 weekend at NXT TakeOver: New York, where he surprisingly defeated Dunne to end his 685-day reign with the United Kingdom Championship.
It is worth noting that the new United Kingdom champion has lost several matches for other promotions in 2019, including against PAC (OTT Homecoming II) and Jordan Devlin (OTT Scrappermania 5), but he remains undefeated on WWE television since his first appearance in NXT UK.
#3 The Viking Raiders
War Raiders’ Hanson and Rowe were introduced to the WWE Universe in April 2019 as The Viking Experience’s Ivar and Erik on the Superstar Shake-Up episode of Raw. Needless to say, the new name was not well received by fans, so the duo has since been renamed The Viking Raiders.
The NXT Tag Team champions have quickly established themselves as a major force in the Raw tag division, winning an eight-man tag match on their debut before decimating Lucha House Party last week, and it looks as though they will be next in line for an opportunity at Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder’s Raw Tag Team Championship.
Before their main-roster exploits, Ivar and Erik were undefeated on WWE programming during their time in NXT earlier this year, winning matches against The Undisputed Era, Adam Priest & Flex Simmons, Adrian Jaoude & Cezar Bononi and Aleister Black & Ricochet.
Given that they are in the unusual situation of being a full-time main-roster duo, as well as title holders in NXT, it is safe to assume that The Viking Raiders will finally suffer a defeat in the not-too-distant future to lose their NXT Tag Team titles.
#2 Triple H
Triple H began 2018 by losing matches against Ronda Rousey & Kurt Angle at WrestleMania 34 and John Cena at the Greatest Royal Rumble, and he ended the year by winning back-to-back matches against The Undertaker at Super Show-Down and The Undertaker & Kane at Crown Jewel.
Due to the pectoral injury he suffered at Crown Jewel in November, it looked for several months as though “The King of Kings” would be unable to compete at WrestleMania 35. However, he made his return just in time to face Batista, defeating the Superstar-turned-movie star in what turned out to be the final match of his former Evolution teammate’s career.
Moving forward, there has been no word on who Triple H could face next in a WWE ring but reports suggest that there will be another show in Saudi Arabia in June, so it is likely that HHH will make an appearance at the event.
If not, then there is a good chance that, with one match and one win, he might remain one of the few undefeated Superstars in 2019 for a while longer.
#1 Toni Storm
After winning the Mae Young Classic in 2018, Toni Storm has established herself as one of the most successful female Superstars on any WWE brand by winning all four of her televised matches so far this year.
She began 2019 by defeating Rhea Ripley at NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool for the NXT UK Women’s Championship, while she retained the title against the same opponent at the Worlds Collide taping over Royal Rumble weekend.
Since then, she has successfully defended the title against Jinny on NXT UK and against Bianca Belair and Nikki Cross in a Triple Threat match at another Worlds Collide taping over WrestleMania 35 weekend, and she is scheduled to face Nina Samuels on an upcoming episode of NXT UK.
Given that Storm has already built up support from WWE fans following her performances in the Mae Young Classic and at the Evolution event in 2018, it would not be at all surprising if she were to take on a similar role to Pete Dunne by appearing on both NXT UK and NXT at some point later in 2019.
