10 WWE superstars whose 2018 second halves will be better than their first

#2 Braun Strowman

2017's breakout star has meandered through most of the first half of 2018, but he won the biggest victory of his career last Sunday. As the new Mr. Money (or Monster) in the Bank, a Universal Championship reign is all but guaranteed, and it could come very soon.

The prevailing theory is that Roman Reigns is set to clash with Brock Lesnar one more time at SummerSlam. Obviously, the Brooklyn crowd won't take too kindly to that match, so Braun Strowman might be waiting in the wings as a safety valve. Fans suspect he'll cash in after Roman beats Brock and become Universal Champion then and there to send the crowd home happy.

It might not happen that way. We'll have to wait and see, but a reign is coming soon.

It's worth noting that Braun Strowman's feud with Roman Reigns last year was 2017's best. Renewing it in the back half of 2018 won't exactly be a bad idea for a Raw brand that's been without a champion for so long.

Drew McIntyre is also rising through the ranks and a rivalry between him and Strowman has already been teased, to an electric response.
