10 Superstars Who Could Take WWE Title Off Brock Lesnar

As well as proving he can go toe to toe with a top star like Daniel Bryan, Adam Cole’s recent main roster appearances have been noticeably light on his usual heelish tendencies. He didn’t need short cuts or run-ins to secure victory.

At WarGames he was his usual, slimy self but Survivor Series was a different story. Where stablemate Roderick Strong bundled AJ Styles from the ring and stole a pin, Cole battled bravely through injury to retain his title. He also delivered top level ring work the crowd could get behind. Is he being groomed for a high profile face turn?

With apologies to The Inner Circle, Undisputed Era are wrestling’s most entertaining band of t*ssers but if they turn on Cole there’s another heel on NXT they could throw their weight behind. A heel who did his best work as founder of another notorious stable. You may even have seen their t-shirts.

That would free up Adam Cole for a “call-up” to Raw, leading to a title programme and a Last Shot to the back of Brock’s head.

Cole is already an organic fan favourite and licence to print t-shirt money. WWE could really use one of those front and centre right now.
