5 Superstars who deserve to be the Universal Champion

#1 The Miz

The Miz

The Miz has been a part of the WWE's main roster since March 2006 and during his stay, he has established himself as one of the most decorated superstars in the WWE. The A Lister is a future Hall of Famer, with many accolades under his belt a universal championship run would make his collection complete.

In the 11 years of his career, Miz is a 6-time tag team champion, 2-time United States champion, 7-time intercontinental champion, one Money in the Bank winner and has also won two Slammy awards. However, he has been WWE champion only once in his career and even in that run he was made to defend the titles against the likes of Jerry Lawler, and was overshadowed in the main event of WrestleMania 27 which only focused on planting the seeds for the couple of matches between The Rock and John Cena.

The Miz not having more than one WWE championship reign is not his fault but that of the WWE's creative team. They can add this to their coveted list of missed opportunities as Miz would've been as great as Edge as a Heel Champion.

Roman Reigns won't be dropping the title too soon after defeating Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania 34, so it would be fitting to have Miz win the Money in the Bank for the second time and cash in on Reigns to become the Universal Champion.

The Miz is more than a glorified mid-card champion and let's hope WWE's creative team finds that out soon and give him the opportunity that he deserves to be the top champion once again.
