10 Best Candidates To Take John Cena's US Title
2. Cesaro
Cesaro is one of the best workers in the world, and even though he's been all over the card in WWE, he's so good that it only takes him a single performance to jump back up the rankings. Case in point - on the June 29 episode of Raw, Cesaro answered Cena's challenge and proceeded to take the champion to the limit in a 20 minute match, eventually winning by disqualification when Kevin Owens interfered. The bout was one of the best on Raw in a long time, and just like that, Cesaro was a contender. The two had a rematch the following week and Cena won, but again, former U.S. Champion Cesaro put up a great fight.
Cesaro would go on to score a couple of big wins over Rusev, but his stock is falling again. It's unfortunately, but easily remedied - he only needs to answer Cena's challenge one more time. The live crowd would erupt at knowing the kind of bout they were about to see, and when Cesaro scored the biggest win of his career, the fans would undoubtedly be behind him. This time, the Swiss Superman would be at the top, and he wouldn't be going anywhere.
