11 Wrestlers Who Are The Dark Horse To Become WWE Champion In 2015

5. Cesaro

We have been waiting for Cesaro to be pushed into the main event picture for about as long as we have been waiting for him to turn face now. It definitely seemed like it would happen at the beginning of the year after qualifying for the Elimination Chamber match, winning the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal at WrestleMania 30, and then becoming a Paul Heyman Guy. Unfortunately none of the above led to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. The rest of 2014 has been a constant battle for the secondary belts, and coming up on the losing end. He has all of the skills inside and outside of the ring to be able to succeed, there might just be one little thing missing that he needs to figure out to be able to strap on that rocket launcher straight to the top. For Cesaro, there is no question of if, but a question of when. He's been able to have top notch matches with everyone from Sami Zayn to John Cena, and any high profile feud he has for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship will deliver.
