10 Shocking Injuries That Destroyed WWE Stars - Watch Here!

Bron Breakker is undoubtedly the future of WWE and is currently performing great on Monday Night RAW. The Vision member is set to compete against CM Punk in a World Heavyweight Championship match on RAW on January 5, 2026. Despite all this, the new Big Dog needs a title to solidify his presence as a main-event star of WWE.

A great world title reign will work as proof that Breakker can headline the future WrestleMania shows as the main character.

#2. No need for a title: Randy Orton

Randy Orton is one of the legendary stars in the history of Sports Entertainment. The Apex Predator is currently missing from the SmackDown brand, but whenever he returns, he doesn't need a title to get over. The Viper has already cemented his legacy as the Legend Killer.

Despite all the recent losses, Triple H needs to book Orton strongly in a feud to rejuvenate his momentum in the main roster.

#1. Need a title: LA Knight

There is no doubt that LA Knight enjoys a great popularity among the live crowd. When the Megastar appears in the venue, he gets a massive share from everyone. Meanwhile, despite this increasing fanbase, Knight still needs a title to get over.

As of now, LA Knight is considered only a great in-ring performer, not a main-eventer or WrestleMania headliner. A World Championship reign can fix things and solidify the former United States Champion as a main-eventer.

#1. No need for a WWE title: Rhea Ripley

Rhea Ripley is one of the most popular female stars of the modern era. The Eradicator draws big numbers for the company, and her presence is enough to make things high-profile.

The Mami has now reached a level where she doesn't need any championship to get over. The former Judgment Day member was recently part of the Women's WarGames match, too.

After all the character development in recent years, Rhea can be a massive threat to anyone in the roster and does not need a title to get over.
