5 WWE feuds that need to take place in the near future

A dream rivalry!
A dream rivalry!

While Superstar Shakeup may not have turned the world upside down, it has left many possibilities wide open for big rivalries. Superstars have switched brands. For instance, AJ Styles has left his house, Smackdown, to move to RAW, while the Big Dog has made a move to SmackDown Live. The Bar, The Riot Squad, and Sanity have split. Bobby Roode has become Robert Roode.

Elsewhere, Buddy Murphy and Alexender, from 205 Live, will now bring light to the main roster. NXT Superstar Ricochet has become a RAW Superstar, while Aleister Black will bleed blue.

With such a talented roster, WWE should provide us with some stellar rivalries. Both RAW and SmackDown have compelling heel and face dynamic across their rosters. We are excited to see which superstars will face off through this year, as there always are some dream feuds we await. Seth Rollins and. AJ Styles have already started to cross paths. In this article, we present 5 feuds that need to take place in the near future.

#5 The Miz vs. Sami Zayn

Zayn vs. Miz: What do you say?
Zayn vs. Miz: What do you say?

We can't wait for these two to cross paths. Since returning, Sami Zayn has been 'gold' on the microphone. He has voiced his displeasure with the WWE Universe, holding them accountable for the toxic WWE culture.

On the other hand, The Miz, The A-Lister, has turned face. After spending an eternity as a heel, Miz is a good guy now, and he's been as terrific in his new role as he was as the bad guy. He is still as good a talker as ever. The potential verbal battles are why Zayn and Miz should collide. It'd be a fantastic rivalry with some memorable promo-work.

Both men can rip into one another. Zayn can touch upon Miz's show 'Miz and Mrs.' He can touch upon Miz being an egomaniac, an entitled and overappreciated Superstar. In opposition, Miz can emphasize that he has received more criticism than anyone, but has taken it in stride to gain the respect of the WWE Universe.

Wouldn't it be nice to have Miz remind Zayn that he's been working ceaselessly, enjoying every bit of it, while Zayn was out vacationing? We haven't even mentioned the high-quality matches these two guys will deliver. It's a must-see feud we need to see soon.

#4 Becky Lynch vs. Stephanie McMahon

There's some history there!

Becky Lynch has been finding a lot of success and fanfare recently. She has had comparisons with big names in the business. Lynch has most notably had comparisons with Stone Cold Steve Austin.

Lynch has the potential to be a consistent main event draw. Also, she can be the same anti-authority figure as Austin. Now, if Lynch wants to be the hero for the masses, she'd have to fight the bosses. Hence, Lynch needs to step in the ring with Stephanie McMahon.

The Boss' daughter is a draw. And, we also know she can step up her in-ring game when the company needs her. McMahon did a great job against Brie Bella at SummerSlam a couple of years ago. Lynch and McMahon could have a compelling rivalry leading up to the "Biggest Event of the Summer" this year.

The two stars have unfinished business, as McMahons tried everything possible to steal Lynch's WrestleMania main event opportunity earlier this year. Also, Stephanie wouldn't be pleased that Lynch won the title despite her best efforts to stop her. It makes sense that the power hungry, authoritative woman would try to take Lynch down again.

#3 Samoa Joe vs. Braun Strowman

These two legitimate monsters are on RAW. The Samoan Submission Machine and The Monster Among Men are WWE's most destructive weapons after Lesnar's departure, besides Lars Sullivan. Samoa Joe and Braun Strowman have much in common. Both these freaks have the WWE Universe behind them. Each has unique charisma, and the ability to steal the show. Now, WWE should pull the trigger, letting them work together.

On SmackDown Live after 'Mania, Strowman and Joe engaged in a battle, and it has left us desiring for more. The brawl had got fans to talk, hoping that they would end up on the same brand. And, WWE did listen to its fans.

Samoa Joe is the reigning United States Champion. A Joe vs. Strowman rivalry could do wonders for the mid-card title. Most importantly, it would give both men perfect opponents to work with through the summer of 2019.

In brief, this rivalry would give us 3 winners: Samoa Joe, Braun Strowman, and the WWE Universe.

#2 Cesaro vs. AJ Styles

Two men who can deliver the Match of the Year together.

Before you clicked to read this article, you might have had many possible rivalries in your mind. If AJ Styles vs. Cesaro was one of them, you're a 'mark.' This rivalry doesn't need any selling for the 'hardcore' fans.

AJ Styles is a contender for the "Best in the World" in Pro-Wrestling. He's truly the "Phenomenal One". We believe Styles can even put on great matches with a broomstick, but Cesaro isn't a nobody.

For whatever reason, WWE felt that Cesaro didn't connect with WWE fans. Even when "Cesaro Section" was as hot as anything in WWE, The Swiss Superman never got the push he deserved. Though, alongside Sheamus, Cesaro had a run as a member of a successful tag-team, The Bar.

Now, Cesaro is back to wrestle as a singles competitor on RAW, and he should finally get the push to help him get closer to the 'brass ring.' Hence, a feud with Styles is a must. It'll not only escalate Cesaro's stocks but also give Styles an opponent who could work at the same level as him.

Cesaro and Styles will deliver 'Match of the year' contenders. And, if WWE adds a great story, this could mean incredible business.

#1 Daniel Bryan vs. Roman Reigns

The blockbuster feud we need to see.

Daniel Bryan's absence from WWE television has been alarming. Considering his past injuries, we've been on the edge of our seats. WWE has not let anything come out in public about the same. We hope Bryan will come back, and he will win the WWE Championship again, and he should fight Roman Reigns.

Do you remember the match Bryan and Reigns wrestled in Fastlane 2015? Roman Reigns had put his 'Mania 'main event' spot on the line. Reigns' Royal Rumble win hadn't been received well by the fans, as he was booed heavily after the win, even when The Rock stood alongside. This matchup delivered, and Bryan put Reigns over in one match. It was stellar, yet only a glimpse of the magic these two men could do in a long-term feud.

Bryan is currently WWE's best heel, and Reigns has received positive reactions since his comeback. Also, Bryan is a competitor that WWE can realistically put over Reigns, the company's favorite star. This rivalry of the 'People's Champion' and the 'Planet's Champion' should happen, possibly main-eventing SummerSlam.

We had this urge to include Bray Wyatt vs. Seth Rollins, but we need to see how his new gimmick works out.

Which rivalries you're most eager to see in 2019? Let us know through your comments.
