10 WWE Stars One Tweak Away From Perfection

10. Braun Strowman

The Tweak: Try out that elusive title run.

Why It'd Help: He's been a Money In The Bank winner, Greatest Royal Rumble victor and even Tag-Team Champ with a 10-year old boy, but that's about it for Braun Strowman's three-year singles career in WWE. It's amazing to think that 2016-17's red hot squash machine hasn't captured another title in the company.

Though Braun has had title shots, he's always come up short against Brock Lesnar whenever he's been booked opposite him. WWE seem tentative about pushing Strowman to that next level, and they're blatantly unsure about how they'd even begin booking him as a World Champion.

The problem is that they won't know until they try it.

Why not gift Braun a run as WWE or Universal Champion later in 2019 and see if he has the skills to make it work? If he succeeds, WWE have a new WrestleMania headliner on their hands. If he fails, so what? He'd just go back to doing what he's doing now anyway.
