Who is the next WWE Champion?

[Razor]

C'mon guys. Follow me on this one.

Orton vs. Cena until the Royal Rumble. Cena finally, unequivocally beats Orton. Orton goes on to help Legacy feud with DX. Who wins the Royal Rumble?

...

...

Jack motherfucking Swagger.

Some would argue he's not ready, which I would probably agree. However, 6 months from now? I think that if he can actually get a feud running with someone and then jump from that to Royal Rumble winner he will be damn ready. Also, that win at the Royal Rumble gives him 2 months to ease into wrestling with Cena. Have Cena do what he does best and put Swagger over as a wrestling power house. Holy fuck, can Swagger actually beat Cena for the belt?

Then, on the WM stage, Taker finally beats Punk for the WHC belt. Everyone gets their face beating the heel moment. For the MITB match, MVP or Kofi snatch it up. The ECW match up, Ryder wins it out of no where. For Raw? Cena vs. Swagger, and it's a dead heat. Cena goes for the Attitude Adjustment, but Swagger reverses into his Powerbomb. Jack motherfucking Swagger just won the WWE belt.

Then, of course, Cena goes on to win it from him a PPV or two down the line while still making Swagger look like a damn good champion.

DAMN, I'm good at this shit.

As much as I would hate to see it Cena needs to have a long title reign. The problem with that is that theres no heels to challenge for the belt other than Orton.

Big Show is tied up in the tag title scene

Miz can be a good competitor but doesn't deserve the belt yet

Masters will never reach Main event imo

MVP - would be a good choice if he were heel but i have a different plan

Sadly with Raw's roster right now I don't know what they'll do at Wrestlemania

I wanted the HHH vs HBK match at WM but whats that leave for the title Cena vs Orton again ?

The only way to break this circle is to give Legacy a rub at Wrestlemania. Edge would win the Rumble to face Jericho & Punk in a triple threat at Mania.

In Raws elimination chamber have it be HHH, HBK, MVP, Rhodes, Dibiase and Orton for number 1 contender. It would come down to the three members of Legacy. Orton demands them to lay down so he could win. Cody lays down only for Dibiase to hit Orton with Dream Street. Cody jumps up and locks in the ankle lock on Orton. Orton taps. As Orton goes to leave the chamber he nails Cody with a RKO and Dibiase pins him for the win

At Wrestlemania it would be

HHH vs HBK - possible retirement for HBK

Ted Dibiase vs John Cena - The Heavyweight triple threat should headline so who cares if it doesn't turn out to be a classic

Randy Orton vs Cody Rhodes

Now that I got rid of the repetitive main event John Cena would retain against Dibiase

The next night on Raw John Cena would come out to celebrate his win when The 2010 MITB winner Swagger comes out cashes in and loses !!!. He would be so embarassed that he would continue to beat down Cena for weeks until Cena accepts his challenge at Backlash where Swagger will pick up a clean victory after the gutwrench and win his first title.

Backlash would be

Cena vs Swagger
HHH vs Rhodes
Dibiase vs Orton
Taker vs Jericho
Edge vs CM Punk

So what do you think? Can Swagger be the answer to the repetitive HHH, Orton, Cena circle or will someone come back (Angle) or switch brands, (Edge, Jericho)

If not Orton, it could very well be a member of Legacy. Rhodes or DiBiase could win it like Orton did and then Orton would turn on them much like Triple H did. Probably won't happen, but it sure wouldn't surprise me. The problem with Raw is that isn't anyone outside of Cena/HHH/Orton even in the main event scene to challenge for the WWE Championship. Nobody else on the roster has been seriously built up to challenge for it and it's hurting the brand very badly. The boring cycle will sadly continue.

 

[fan40]

My money is on Orton regaining the belt, and then Diabiase taking it from Orton at Wrestlemania.

I think this is a definate possibility matching down the road. Remembering not so many weeks ago about the small hint of tension on Raw between the two. I think this will be revisited in the not to distant future again....I would like to see this. It would bring in a fresh angle for sure

 

[Ambiguous Turd]

There is a list for only 3 people that are allowed to be WWE Champion. Their names are:

John Cena
Randy Orton
Triple H


Shawn Michaels would be on the list, but as we know, he won't hold it due to having to work an increased schedule.

So I guess Triple H is next to hold the belt, according to the rotation. Kind of sad that people can predict this already. They really need to get some new people in the Main Event and fast.

 

[Mr. Dejan]

if orton wins back the tittle at HIAC it will make way for ted dibiase to leave legacy and try and win the wwe tittle he has the potential or even rhodes so he can becom the youngest ever wwe champion but

 

[666_The_Game_666]

Theres a circle for the WWE Title Orton Cena HHH so the next champ will be Orton at HIAC then HHH will desire another Title Run and with the help of HBK win the title against Orton whenver they have the next title match.

Out of the younger guys id like to See MVP the that little more of a push to the ME hes got just a bit to go i see him as a future World Champ in the next few years.

 

[Mannic]

so many younger guys that should get the push.. i agree with MVP they were pushing him hard when he came off his loosing streak even when he first came over to RAW... and hes back to being nothing again :/

I don't see Rhodes ever being a champ.. i think hes really bad on the mic.. and he looks like a damn toothpick id see the miz as the champ before him

And Jack Swagger is another one.. Before Christian joined ECW the only reason i would tune in was to see swagger hes pretty decent on the mic and a great in ring performer..


Sadly none of these guys will get there shots for a very long time.. RAW is clogged with the "big 3" Cena, Orton, and HHH As long as they are the key people on RAW I don't see anyone but one of them being champ :/

 

[tLight]

MVP is the only name outside of Cena, Orton, Triple H and HBK that has had enough exposure. He had a good run on Smackdown as the US Champ, he just needs that extra push, something along the lines of a real push, and a feud with a big star Cena, Orton, or Triple H, possibly Big Show if Jeri-Show breaks up, now that Show isn't being booked as a 500 pound turd. Or maybe a big win at Royal Rumble pushing him to the top.

A lot of people are saying Cody and Ted, but neither of them have had that push, neither have been tested with the middle card title, and I don't think the feud with DX will push them both into the Main Event enough to the point where they can win a World Title.

Kofi Kingston could also surprise everyone, he won the tag titles with CM Punk, he's on his what 2nd US/IC Title run. He's been the US Champ now for 4 months now? He spent 6 months on ECW before being drafted to Raw, and since coming to Raw he's been show cased almost every single week, he's had some lenthy feuds, big victories, and has went over everyone else in the middle card. I wouldn't be surprised if he stole the WWE/WHC within the next year.

There's always that Elimination Chamber match that is bound to happen after Royal Rumble, so there's a chance we could get a big surprise new Champ. 6 people in the match

3 are already decided

....Cena....Orton.....Triple H
Kingston, Ted, and MVP could round out the EC match...... (Cody could solo feud with HBK during this time, or swap out Ted for Swagger or the Miz) MVP or Kingston could easily steal this win.

 

[L4L]

The way I see it Cena will always be in the hunt for the title. The only other guys on Raw with the possibility of getting a Title run IMO are


Dibiase: He has been looking very tough latley and it seems they are pushing him as the tougher of the two legacy members.

MVP: He's got all the tools to become a champion he just needs the push and the fans behind him.

Mark Henry: Why? Because other than John cena who else on Raw has pinned Randy Orton clean. Nobody Henry is a force if pushed.

Swagger: Another guy with Potential but again he needs the push.

 

[cenarules]

I agree with those who have stated that no-one else is ready for the Main Event scene from Raw. For all those who say MVP - he seems to have gone backwards as a face. Even tho he is probably the best prepared for the step up, the fans don't seem to be behind him.

I would say that it is a good idea to keep HHH and Cena away from the WWE title for a while - that is as long as Cena is kept away from the Big Show.


I believe the direction for WWE as of Raw tonight should be DX v Jerishow, Cena v Jack Swagger (as long as Swagger takes a few wins!!!) and Randy Orton v Ted DiBiase. Or, they could do some kind of superstar trade - Undertaker for Orton could be good and switch around the 2 titles, creating new feuds in the process...

 

[ManOfSteel]

I think that HHH and Cena should be away from the titles for a while as well. You know HHH is gonna be around for a while, and Cena will come and go as he does his music and movies so it wouldn't hurt for WWE to let a few up and comers break through the glass ceiling sorta speak. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of HHH and Cena but seeing the same stuff over and over again gets kinda boring. Do something different and unexpected.
