10. Braun Strowman

Didn't win the Universal Title, and no other part of the story really matters.

'The Monster Among Men' was primed and ready a year earlier, especially considering how he was the perfect compromise between fan favourite and Vince McMahon dreamboat. Won Money In The Bank but blew his shot against Roman Reigns then lost to Brock Lesnar (again). Had f*ck all to do at WrestleMania too, which perhaps foreshadowed the challenging year ahead.

He might get a panicked rehabilitation run with the gold in 2019, but it remains to be seen if it's too little, too late.
