5 WWE Superstars who could win the United States Championship in 2021

#1 Former WWE NXT North American Champion Damian Priest

Damian Priest has been featured with rap star Bad Bunny on Monday Night RAW during the road to WrestleMania

WWE officials obviously see a lot of potential in Damian Priest. Since being called up from WWE NXT and making his main roster debut at the 2021 Royal Rumble, Priest has been paired with rap sensation Bad Bunny on WWE television.

This has been hugely beneficial for the former NXT North American Champion as it gives him a vast amount of mainstream exposure due to being so closely associated with a global rap star.

Furthermore, Damian Priest has looked increasingly impressive during all of his Monday Night RAW appearances so far. Since his spectacular entrance, Priest has racked up impressive victories over the likes of The Miz, Jaxson Ryker, Elias, and Angel Garza.

The Archer of Infamy is currently scheduled to be in Bad Bunny's corner at WrestleMania 37 during the rap star's match against The Miz. While some may find it disappointing that Priest isn't competing at WrestleMania 37, it could indicate bigger plans for the former NXT star after the showcase of the immortals.

Looks like @sanbenito had something up his sleeve on #MizTV ... and his name is DAMIAN PRIEST!#WWERaw @ArcherOfInfamy pic.twitter.com/0twaWwQ613

Perhaps the positive momentum of his association with Bad Bunny could lead to Damian Priest becoming the United States Champion after WrestleMania 37.
