5 Superstars that deserve title shots after SummerSlam

WWE could be left with a very different landscape after SummerSlam and one has to wonder what exactly that landscape will look like. Think about it! with six of the ten titles on the line at the upcoming pay per view and WWE wanting to make drastic changes to the product, it only makes sense that the future is up in the air.

And a major part of that is determining who will be the next batch of Superstars to get a title shot. Sure, there are a lot of options out there when it comes to who should get title shots, but, it's also becoming evident that some stars deserve the honor more than others.

With that in mind and WWE expected to make big swings to key title pictures on both Raw and Smackdown, here are five Superstars that deserve title shots after SummerSlam. As always, let us know your thoughts in the comments below and tell us who you think deserves a title shot next!

#5 Sasha Banks Raw Women's title.

Sasha Banks is very deserving of a title shot on Raw!

Sasha Banks hasn't been seen on television after losing The tag team titles to The Iconics, which is exactly why she is the best opponent possible for Becky Lynch moving forward. Not only is that evident by Lynch and Banks's history together, but also by the fact that it allows the former champion to establish herself as a heel.

The storyline would even allow for a lot of sensitive subjects to be discussed between the two sides, which include rumors of Banks wanting to quit and Lynch starting to become overrated. Either way, this is a marquee feud that deserves to be explored and will benefit the company in the long run.

In the end, WWE has done their best when blurring the lines between fiction and reality, thus why this storyline would be so appealing. Finally, it gives the company a stop stop-gap until they can build a new opponent for Lynch, which could prove beneficial with how barren the division is right now.

#4 Samoa Joe Universal title

There's just something about Samoa Joe right now and WWE would be silly not to capitalize on it. Beyond that, him turning babyface on Raw gives WWE a chance to get fans behind him and eventually put him in the title hunt against Brock Lesnar.

Interestingly enough, this would allow for Joe to finally avenge his loss to Brock Lesnar a few years ago and finally get the main roster title that has eluded him. Of course, this plan isn't perfect and it will rely on whether Joe stays a babyface or neutral so to speak, but he is arguably the best opponent for Lesnar going forward.

Maybe this is all wishful thinking and WWE will simply use Joe as a stop-gap or in another capacity, but it would be a great title match to watch unfold. Furthermore, watching Joe finally get the spot he has deserved for so long in The WWE would be a great way to regain fans trust going forward.

#3 Bray Wyatt: 247 title

Should WWE let Bray Wyatt into The 247 title hunt?

It all makes sense.

The 24/7 championship is the most bizarre thing on WWE television right now and so is Bray Wyatt. It's almost like a match made in heaven so to speak and the company putting the belt on him would lead to a lot of interesting opportunities moving forward and might even help Wyatt's world building in the process.

Imagine this! Bray Wyatt shows up out of nowhere as The Fiend, uses one of his sinister finishers and takes the title for himself. Wyatt can then escape into his television show world, which leaves opportunities for Superstars to visit the set and make The Firefly Funhouse segment even more enjoyable.

If nothing else, Bray Wyatt and The Firefly Funhouse is one of WWE's biggest things right now and continuing to focus on it is only going to help them. It's also a chance for the company to build a very bizarre world around The Firefly Funhouse and create some very interesting television in the meantime.

#2 Ali: Intercontinental title

Whether you want to admit it or not, Ali is one of the biggest rising stars in WWE right now and he is going to have a very long career with the company. Ali is also one of the most popular Superstars on the company's roster right now and a lot of eyeballs are watching him when he competes.

With that being said and his stellar matchup against Shinsuke Nakamura in mind, it only makes sense for the young star to finally win his first title. In fact, between Ali missing out on The Elimination Chamber match due to injury and ultimately losing his chance to face Daniel Bryan, one could argue that he deserves this opportunity.

Again, some fans might not want to admit this kid is the next big thing, especially with his size and being injury-prone,at times but he has pulled off some pretty amazing things in the ring so far. Fans are also pretty behind him already, thus showing just how big the star could be with time.. He even has a similar build to that of Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston, who have both enjoyed lengthy championship runs.

#1 Shane McMahon: WWE Championship

Does Shane McMahon deserve a WWE title shot?

Admit it!

Shane McMahon is the biggest heel in WWE right now and while the fans despise him, even they have to admit that a win or loss against him matters. Unfortunately for a lot of WWE Superstars, they have come up on the losing end against McMahon several times, which leads to The boss's son continuing to build heat.

While that might sound like a bad thing, especially with how much fans complain about him already, putting The WWE Title on him could signal a seismic shift in the entire company. It could even lead to the building of a young star on Smackdown Live and help Kofi Kingston look strong in defeat.

In the end, no one is going to like the idea of Shane McMahon walking around with The WWE title, but it's the only reasonable way to end this storyline. It's also a way for WWE to build up a star to finally defeat McMahon and cement himself as the next big thing, which is also why this is something that needs to happen.
