#3 SmackDown Women's Champion - Io Shirai

The SmackDown Women's Championship changed hands in the main event of Night One of WWE WrestleMania 37 as Bianca Belair defeated Sasha Banks to become the new champion. WWE will likely keep the title on her for quite some time now, at least until SummerSlam 2021. Currently, Bayley has teased coming after Belair's title but it would likely be a feud to solidify the champion's reign.

One NXT Superstar who could soon be on her way to the main roster is Io Shirai. We already saw Rhea Ripley move up to RAW. In the coming months, Io Shirai could be joining the roster of SmackDown and if she does, a feud against Bianca Belair would be great. She might just be the one to dethrone The EST of WWE and become the new SmackDown Women's Champion.


#2 WWE Champion - Brock Lesnar

WWE Champion Bobby Lashley was one of only three champions to retain their title at WrestleMania 37. Many expected Drew McIntyre to dethrone Lashley at WrestleMania 37 but that didn't happen. The way WWE has booked Bobby Lashley in the last few months has been impressive. It is highly possible that The All Mighty will remain the WWE Champion for a few months.

A possible direction that WWE could take is to bring back Brock Lesnar, possibly ahead of SummerSlam 2021, and finally set up the dream match between him and Lashley. If that happens, The Beast Incarnate could be the one to dethrone Bobby Lashley to become the new WWE Champion.
