Predicting all WWE title holders at the end of 2020

#6 WWE United States Champion - Keith Lee

Bask in his glory.

Keith Lee made a huge impact right away by targeting and eventually defeating Randy Orton. Orton is possibly in his best character run in WWE in years, and for a call-up from NXT to get one over on the Legend Killer is a huge deal.

That has also parlayed into the ongoing feud between Orton and McIntyre. While many people would love to see Lee win the WWE Championship, it may not happen this year.

That sets Lee up to target the mid-card title on RAW. The mid-card titles change hands more often than the top ones, so Lee could feasibly end the year holding the United States Championship. Bobby Lashley won the title at SummerSlam, giving the Hurt Business some legitimacy. They have been set up as the top group on the show and even stood up to RETRIBUTION to end the latest RAW.

Once Lee moves on from Orton/McIntyre, he should enter into a program with Lashley. He's one of the few WWE wrestlers that can match Lashley's strength game and he could fight off the other members of the Hurt Business. Just having Lee and MVP go back and forth on the mic would be worth the price of admission.

If Lee is being positioned as one of RAW's top faces, he needs to win a title. Since it may not be for the WWE Championship, the next logical belt is the United States Championship. He could even ally with Ricochet, Mustafa Ali and Apollo Crews to oppose the Hurt Business during the feud.
