5 wrestlers WWE should sign by 2019

Two of the best in the world
Two of the best in the world should be in a WWE ring one day.

The world is full of talented wrestlers. There are many wrestling promotions that compete against each other by using the talents they have. WWE, ROH, NJPW and Impact Wrestling are some of the top companies with extremely good wrestlers, but WWE is the most stable brand among them as you all may know.

The WWE usually hires superstars from the other companies as soon as their contracts are over. Many wrestlers like AJ Styles, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, Samoa Joe and more have been hired in this way by the WWE.

WWE signs new talent from the indies each year. They have already hired some wrestlers this year, but they might be looking to hire some more later on.

Let's have a look at five superstars that the WWE should sign by 2019.


#5 Kazuchika Okada

Kazuchika Okada was ranked number one on Pro Wrestling Illustrated's list of "Top 500 Wrestlers Of 2017". He is a naturally gifted talent who has incredible wrestling skills. Okada, along with Kenny Omega, put on the best match in wrestling history according to the Match Rating System of the respected pro-wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer.

He has also held the IWGP Heavyweight Championship for the highest combined number of days. His latest reign was ended recently by Kenny Omega at NJPW's Dominion pay-per-view.

It is less likely that Kazuchika Okada will join WWE; he has been asked in many interviews about whether he would join WWE in future and he made it clear that he had no such intentions. If he were to ever change his mind, WWE would surely aim to hire him.

Okada can deliver quality matches against any wrestler, and coming to WWE would give him fresh feuds. When his NJPW contract is up, WWE may not think twice before offering him a contract.

#4 Will Ospreay

Will Ospreay is a name that you may have heard before. He is one of the best high-flying wrestlers to ever step-foot in the squared circle. Ospreay is currently signed to a contract with New Japan Pro Wrestling and has been a IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion with the company.

He has wrestled quality matches against Marty Scurll, Ricochet and many others. Ospreay is an immensely talented wrestler and has a compelling and unique moveset.

He is a great in-ring worker and can put on great matches with any type of wrestler. WWE would obviously benefit by hiring him as they can put him against many top WWE superstars.

Ospreay will be a major attraction for all the companies once his NJPW contract is over and WWE would surely like to make a play for him.

#3 Zack Sabre Jr.

Zack Sabre Jr. is one of the best in-ring technicians today, if not the best. He is "over" with the fans and knows how to connect with them properly. He uses a number of submission moves to dominate his opponent and has the ability to deliver a great performance in highly anticipated matches.

Sabre Jr. has competed in a WWE ring before, as he was a participant in WWE's inaugural Cruiserweight Classic Tournament. He was also offered a contract, but he declined it.

Since then, he has improved a lot as an overall performer. He is a complete package and is just what the WWE needs. Sabre Jr. coming to WWE would give us dream matches for him against opponents like AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan.

Signing Zack Sabre Jr. would be a good choice for the WWE, and a run in NXT would be quite beneficial for making him a perfect fit for WWE.

#2 Cody

The American Nightmare

As you all may know, Cody Rhodes is a former WWE superstar. Due to some 'creative' issues, he parted ways with the company. Since then, he has made a name for himself by competing in the indies and has now become one of the hottest acts in the wrestling industry.

There is no doubt about Cody's wrestling skills. He is a great wrestler as well as a great talker. He is a hardworking talent who can wrestle anyone, anywhere, at any given time.

WWE has not shown any sign of wanting to bring him back in the company; neither has Cody expressed any views of going back to the WWE. But it is sure that both the sides will come together sooner or later.

WWE would not want to miss any opportunity to hire Cody back. There are many dream matches that can happen once Cody is back in the company. It would be a smart move to bring back Cody to WWE as soon as possible.

#1 Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks

The Elite

The hottest wrestling act right now are none other Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks, collectively known as the Elite. They are listed together as the number one on this list because they are better as a unit anywhere.

The Young Bucks are the best tag team right now on the whole planet, whereas Kenny Omega is arguably the best singles wrestler. They have proved their worth from time to time by putting on incredible and unbeatable performances.

The Young Bucks won the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Championships recently at NJPW's Dominion 2018 event. Kenny Omega also won the IWGP Heavyweight Championship at the same event by defeating Kazuchika Okada in the first ever seven-star match.

The NJPW contracts of all three of them are rumored to be over by the end of the year. It is also rumored that the WWE is likely going to offer contracts to The Elite as soon as their NJPW contracts are done.

Bringing these three to the WWE would give the fans many awaited dream match-ups.
