Predicting who will be the top 10 WWE superstars of 2019

#2 Becky Lynch

Becky Lynch hit the peak of her popularity after turning heel. In fact, it was the biggest pop she had ever received in the WWE.

Hence, WWE capitalized on it and pushed her to win the Smackdown Women’s Championship.

This also led to a really good Last Woman Standing match at WWE Evolution. Despite losing the title, she has still retained much of her popularity amongst the loyal WWE Universe.

‘The Irish Lasskicker’ is set to challenge Asuka for the Smackdown Women’s Championship at the upcoming Royal Rumble PPV.

Ever since this new version of Becky Lynch has emerged, her mic skills have risen through the roof.

She has proved more than capable of handling her own on the microphone and has delivered intense segments over the past few weeks.

WWE will be wise to capitalize on Lynch’s popularity throughout the year.

#1 Daniel Bryan

Daniel Bryan returned from retirement in 2018 and was soon pushed into the limelight. Bryan challenged for the WWE Championship and even ended AJ Styles’ 371-day reign as WWE Champion turning heel in the process.

Even as a heel, Daniel Bryan is delivering some of his best work yet. Even his match against Brock Lesnar was a clear indication that he can hold his own against anyone no matter how big they are.

Bryan has always been this lovable underdog who rose up against the odds to become Champion.

But now with Vince McMahon saying that he will give the fans more of what they want, this could mean that we could get to see more opportunities for wrestlers like Daniel Bryan.

2019 could end up being Daniel Bryan’s best year in the company.

Sunil admires former world champions AJ Styles, Will Ospreay, and Kenny Omega for their ability to consistently deliver great matches as well as entertain crowds with their mic skills.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
