5 Superstars who could win the WWE Championship in 2018

#4 Rusev

Rusev sets his sights on his prey

The Bulgarian brute was portrayed as a monster who would crush his opponents when he first debuted on the main roster. He had the looks and strength to do justice to his character.

Rusev is a former two time United States Champion and is worthy of the kind of push that Braun Strowman is receiving at Raw.

Furthermore, the matches he has had with the likes of Roman Reigns and John Cena clearly prove that he has all it takes to be the top dog on the Smackdown roster.

For all of these reasons, it is clear that he would be an excellent heel champion if Vince decides to put the title in his hands and when that happens, every day will be 'Rusev Day'!
