8) Braun Strowman

 WWE Universal or United States Champion

Braun Strowman has been built up as a total monster by WWE since the draft back in July where he split from the Wyatt Family.

Strowman has been squashing opponents left and right and looks to be virtually unstoppable in single combat. Let’s face it, WWE can’t keep having Strowman squash people each week, there must be more in store for the giant.

I don’t think WWE would be building up Strowman this strong unless they had big plans for him in 2017. I predict that Strowman is eventually going to go after a title belt, where he won’t be able to be stopped.

The question is, what title? You could make a case that Strowman could believably win the Universal Title based on how dominant he has looked.

As a fan, I think I would prefer to see him take the United States title off Roman Reigns, leading to a long and dominant run with the belt.
