Predicting Every WWE Title Feud After WrestleMania 36

16. NXT United Kingdom Title

Walter Ilja Dragunov

Ilja Dragunov is bloody brilliant.

It's only a matter of time before the wild-eyed and intense Russian is holding gold in WWE, and it's actually that intensity that makes him the ideal opponent for reigning NXT UK Champ Walter. The chop-loving big Austrian would have a field day with someone who sells like Dragunov does.

Some might scoff at the thought of two non-Brits warring for the NXT UK's top prize, but screw that; these guys would have some seriously stunning matches, and they'd be a good choice for TakeOver: Dublin and beyond if some cracks in Walter's Imperium plans start to show.
