12 Current WWE Stars Who Will Win A World Title Within 5 Years
3. Sami Zayn
This one's a given, for the simple reason that Kevin Owens has been a World champion, and Sami Zayn is in no way finished feuding with him. Owens and Zayn are going to clash for the rest of their careers, and smart money says that at least one World title will change hands as part of their endless hate-waltz.
Sami may not even have to wait for Owens to reenter the world title picture, however, because he's absolutely made to be a transitional champion. That's not a knock on Zayn. His story has always been and always will be about the journey and the catharsis that comes with its completion. There's no money in a Sami Zayn dynasty. There's no endgame.
Sami, like Daniel Bryan and Mick Foley before him, exists to lose his hard-won championships in impossibly frustrating ways. He might be the guy who overcomes the odds to unseat Jinder Mahal, for example, only to lose to Kevin Owens or Baron Corbin later in the week.
Time Until Championship: 1 year.
