10 Better World Champion Options Than Brock Lesnar And Randy Orton

Speaking of having the rug yanked out from underneath you, it seems like WWE have squandered far too many opportunities with a legitimately interesting character by having Bray lose all of his feuds.

Bray was given the WWE Championship in February, but then proceeded to have him in a very weird storyline with Randy Orton that felt like an inside joke only the pair were in on.

Before the visit to Sister Abigail’s house, the WWE Universe was ready and willing to buy into the idea of Bray as a World Champion, judging by the reaction to his title win at Elimination Chamber and the subsequent SmackDown. Now on Raw, fans could reinvest in Bray as he continues his feuds with Finn Bálor and Seth Rollins, with the title being used to elevate the rivalry.

He would be an improvement over Lesnar simply because he shows up every week.
