9 WWE Superstars Who Will Win Their First Title In 2017
3. Mojo Rawley - SmackDown Live Tag Team Championship
Is Mojo Rawley going to win his first championship in WWE in 2017? Woo Woo Woo! You Know It! As a member of The Hype Bros, Mojo Rawley has not had the most success since his arrival on the main roster. However, in December he and Zack Ryder won a number contender one battle royal for the SmackDown Live Tag Team Championships. Unfortunately, near the end of the match, Ryder suffered a terrible knee injury and will not be competing until at least the summer.
When Ryder returns, WWE will likely continue with its treatment of Ryder and Rawley as a middle of the ground tag team. That being said, the tag team division on SmackDown Live is not very deep. American Alpha are great and will hopefully hold the titles for a while. Behind them, Randy Orton appears to be on the way out of the Wyatt Family, Heath Slater and Rhyno are heading towards a split, and The Usos are a solid team with their new heel turn. The rest of the division - The Ascension, Breezango, and the Vaudevillians - do not appear to be going anywhere near the tag team titles.
This leaves The Hype Bros as solid contenders for the straps and the first championship of Mojo Rawley's WWE career.
