Who will be a WWE champion in 2017?

The Future is now! Or next year, at the latest.
Cesaro can say “Give me that belt” in 6 different languages.

Cesaro - Universal Champion

Look, Cesaro is my favorite wrestler, so I’m pretty biased. He can do things no other man his size can do and he hasn’t even broken out all his tools yet. He is super smart and very funny when he’s just being himself, and he has his own section of the arena.

He can be a good guy or a bad guy but it doesn’t really matter, he is the best wrestler in the world and he deserves to hold the top fashion accessory at some point in his career, so why not soon?

His career so far in WWE has been a depressing amount of false starts, injuries and just bad timing. He was teamed up with Paul Heyman at a time when Heyman was way too busy, he started catching momentum both as a team with Tyson Kidd and as a singles competitor, only to be thwarted both times by injuries.

Right now he’s in an endless feud with Sheamus but those two are so good against each other that I’m still able to enjoy all 346 matches they’ve had already and looking forward to the last 108.

I’d love to see Cesaro take the series and use his “championship opportunity” to set his aim on the Universal Championship.
