Predicting Every WWE Title Feud After WrestleMania 40

By Jamie Kennedy / February 1, 2024

WWE's annual 'Road To WrestleMania' has been turned upside down by cruel injuries and some of the most shocking revelations in company history. Vince McMahon is out for good, and the creative team must be wondering what kind of card they'll be able to put on across two nights this April.

The roster will adapt, but it isn't going to be easy.

CM Punk, Brock Lesnar and Charlotte Flair are just three of the major stars pulled from 'Mania for various reasons. There are also doubts about Seth Rollins. So, that's heading into WrestleMania. How about after? WWE's title picture across Raw, SmackDown and NXT could look very different to what it does right now.

Every new champ (or surviving one) will need a fresh feud to sink their teeth into after the bumper weekender. Grand returns will make that easier for some - Triple H's writers can dive into WWE's past to give workers like Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre killer rivalries right off the bat.

Of course, you'll need to indulge some conjecture about title changes into the bargain. That's part of the fun!

12. NXT North American Title

Current Champ: Oba Femi

Predicted Feud: Oba Femi (c) vs. Dijak

This piece is being penned before NXT's Vengeance Day special, but the guess here is that Oba Femi retains his North American Title vs. Dragon Lee and marches on. Dragon looks destined for a sprint on the main roster anyway (unless Triple H has changed his mind), and Oba is just getting started as champ.

Post-WrestleMania, it'd be cool to see big Dijak get the nod as his next rival. The one-time T-BAR matched up well against Keith Lee many moons ago, and he'd be expected to do that 'big boys who can shift' thing vs. Femi as well.

They'd tear it up.

Beating Dijak in a series of bouts won't rock Oba's world, but it will help him cement himself as one of the finest champs on the developmental brand. That's surely what Shawn Michaels wants from him heading through the first half of 2024.
