#2 Ali

Last week on SmackDown Live, Ali and Nakamura ran into each other backstage. After Nakamura cut an eerie promo, Ali interrupted him and appeared to congratulate him. All signs point towards a feud between the aforementioned stars over the Intercontinental Championship sooner rather than later.
Ali has been an inspirational and admirable character on the main roster. He has fought through numerous obstacles en route to becoming a WWE SmackDown Live star. His promos are always so meaningful and fans adore and love a star like him. However, Ali hasn't had much success recently.
Given that Ali and Nakamura ran into each other backstage last week, it seems like Ali will be the first to challenge Nakamura. Ali and Nakamura are great in-ring performers and can put on an instant classic.
Although these two are equally good in the ring, they both have different characters. Ali is the die-hard and lovable babyface whereas Nakamura is the abominable heel. This would make for an interesting rivalry.
