10 WWE Superstars Who Will Win Their First Main Roster Title In 2019

3. Andrade ‘Cien’ Almas

Predicted Title(s): United States or Intercontinental.

He's handsome, athletic, proved he could have killer matches in NXT and in Zelina Vega, has a manager who can do his talking for him. Yes, Andrade Almas is a dead cert to bring home main roster championships sooner rather than later, and we predict either the United States or Intercontinental Title as his first port of call.

Why the IC? Well, who can say for sure that WWE won't decide to put Andrade on Raw when they inevitably shake things up in 2019? They arguably shouldn't (he's much better off bedding in on SmackDown and mingling with the workhorses there), but it's not exactly a far-fetched notion.

A feud with Rusev over the US Title has already been touched upon last summer, and it'd lead to a quite excellent series of pay-per-view scraps if Ru-Ru and 'Cien' went head-to-head this year too. Again, like others, there's no rush, and yet Almas seems destined for a big, career-defining win.
