Before we start, an honourable mention goes out to Drew McIntyre, who very recently has
been rumoured to get a big push with Vince McMahon thinking very highly of him. Furthermore,
both The Chairman and Triple H are said to be “highly involved” in McIntyre’s booking,
so something big could happen anytime soon.
Baron Corbin loves to beat people up, that’s just his idea of fun and since moving from
SmackDown Live to Monday Night RAW, he’s doing just that. He is a former André The
Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner, a former United States Champion and how can we forget,
a former Mr. Money in the Bank, which lasted about as long as his hairline did. According
to various reliable sources, Baron Corbin is in line for a big push as a main event
star since his arrival on the red brand. It is also reported that The Chairman, Vince
McMahon is a fan of The Lone Wolf and considers him as a “future major player” for the
WWE. With a little more work and better booking, I can really see Baron Corbin become a top
heel in the company and besides, he has a pretty sweet finisher.
Samoa Joe is a Samoan wrecking machine and he won’t rest until he puts his opponents
to sleep. There’s a reason why fans chant “Joe’s gonna kill you!” He’s a solid
heel with impressive in-ring ability and the man sure knows how to cut an incredible promo.
It has been rumoured for quite some time that Samoa Joe is in line for a big push, especially
with his arrival on SmackDown Live. However, injuries have only made it harder for The
Destroyer. It is thought that Samoa Joe moved to SmackDown Live in order to “avoid Roman
Reigns” so that he can dominate the blue brand and establish himself as a top star
there. He is yet to win a main roster title but hopefully somewhere down the line, that
will all change. Maybe a dream match between Samoa Joe and AJ Styles could be in the works.
Braun Strowman continues to be an unstoppable force in the WWE and he won’t stop until
he says that he is finished with you. They don’t call him “The Monster Among Men”
for nothing… the guy knocked a treehouse down full of kids! Strowman is a main event
attraction, as well as a fan favourite and he possesses God-given strength and extraordinary
speed for a man of his size. His meteoric rise to the top of the WWE ladder can only
get better and that’s with championship gold around his waist. He won the RAW tag
team championships with a 10-year-old kid at WrestleMania 34, but that was short-lived
due to “scheduling conflicts” *cough* school for Nicholas. “The Monster Among
Men” also made history when he outlasted 49 other Superstars to win the Greatest Royal
Rumble Championship and trophy. Not so much a trophy anymore… Strowman is deserving
of a WWE world title and it is rumoured that he could potentially be Brock Lesnar’s SummerSlam
2018 opponent. So, maybe Lesnar and the Universal Championship are ‘gonna “Get These Hands!”
Every day is Rusev Day! Aren’t you elated? Rusev has quickly become one of the most over
superstars in the WWE roster today with everyone chanting “Rusev Day”. However, with that
said, things haven’t been going too greatly for “The Bulgarian Brute” as he failed
to capture the SmackDown Live Tag Team Championships with Aiden English, failed to capture the
United States Championship at WrestleMania 34 (a match he was only added to due to hot
merchandise sales) and he was buried by The Undertaker… literally. But, it looks like
that’s all about to change as it has been rumoured that Rusev is set for a big push
Day”. WWE, don’t you dare split up Rusev and Aiden. We already endured the break-up
of Team Kevin and Chris, so not Rusev and Aiden.
For guys who have llama penises strapped to their heads… The Rock’s words not mine…
The New Day never ceases to entertain each week. They have accomplished pretty much all
there is in the tag team division by becoming two-time RAW tag team champions, two-time
SmackDown tag team champions and they hold the record for the longest tag team championship
reign in WWE history at 483 days. And they have their own cereal, not to forget. A Lot
of rumours from trusted sources have been circling around that one of The New Day members
is due a huge singles push and who does Vince McMahon have his eye on? The biggest member
of The New Day, of course, Big E. He has charisma, the look of a champion and he has demonstrated
the ability to cut great promos. The rumours even go on to suggest that Big E will shockingly
win the 2018 Money in the Bank ladder match to kickstart his singles career. With Big
E going solo, this could mean the end of The New Day or just The New Day without Big E.
It’s not the same man… Perhaps we’ll see Big E capture the WWE Championship someday,
who knows.
