9 WWE Superstars Who Will Win Their First Title In 2017
1. Braun Strowman - Universal Championship
Braun Strowman has been arguably the most improved wrestler of the past year. 365 days ago, fans were irate over the idea of Strowman holding a title or facing The Undertaker at WrestleMania. Now, after a split from the Wyatt Family, an increasing move set and a growing number of decent matches, Strowman is earning fans' respect.
On Raw this past Monday, Strowman dominated his Last Man Standing Match with Sami Zayn, then appeared at the close of the show with Roman Reigns, Chris Jericho, Kevin Owens, and Goldberg. Even more importantly than being there, he did not look out of place being in the ring with the main event stars. With the Royal Rumble coming up, there is a chance that Strowman will win and challenges Roman Reigns for the Universal Title.
Even if that is not case, WWE clearly has big plans for Braun Strowman in the next year. There is no telling what 2017 will hold for The Monster Among Men, but it will include a run with the Universal Title on Raw.
