Multiple WWE superstars could be in line for a US title reign after LA Knight.
LA Knight has become one of the most popular WWE superstars of the modern era. The Megastar’s hard work and resilience were solidified at WWE SummerSlam when he defeated Logan Paul to capture his first singles title, the United States Championship.
While LA Knight has done a remarkable job as the defending champion, WWE might be planning to take the title off him soon and give it to the next star deserving of the star-spangled prize. Here are the top five WWE superstars who could be the next WWE US Champion:
5. Carmelo Hayes
Carmelo Hayes‘ impressive stint in WWE NXT earned him a place in the first round of the WWE Draft 2024. Hayes became a part of SmackDown and has been turning heads with his performances on a weekly basis. This makes him a potential candidate to earn a reign as the US Champion and solidify his place on the main roster as a rising star.
4. Andrade El Idolo
Andrade El Idolo recently failed in his quest to become the next United States Champion. However, there is no doubt about the exceptional in-ring talent possessed by him. With WWE bringing him back as a top prospect for the main roster, El Idolo could once again build momentum on SmackDown and succeed in his mission to become the next WWE US Champion.
3. Jacob Fatu
With Tama Tonga and Tonga Loa holding the tag team titles, Solo Sikoa could let his Enforcer, Jacob Fatu, on the loose to fetch another piece of gold for The Bloodline. This could see the dominant Jacob Fatu dethrone LA Knight and capture the Star-spangled Prize, making it another addition of titles for his family.
2. Santos Escobar
Santos Escobar has proven his worth as the next rising star of WWE with his stint with Rey Mysterio and the leader of Legado Del Fantasma. Despite his earlier failures, WWE has immense faith in Santos and could very well position him for a US title reign after LA Knight.
1. Kevin Owens
Kevin Owens has not had the best of the year, losing significant matches and opportunities. With WWE teasing Owens’ heel turn for weeks, they could finally pull the trigger on KO and bring out his aggressive side back. This could see Kevin Owens return to his underhanded tactics and defeat LA Knight to become a 4-time WWE United States Champion.
