A handful of top WWE stars could taste their first World title gold in 2026.
In 2026, WWE has seen a remarkable start, with rising new talent and current stars taking their game to the next level. Moreover, there have been some highly talented in-ring performers who are looking promising to win their first World Championship soon.
As the landscape of the Stamford-based promotion continues to evolve, here are the top five WWE superstars who are poised to win their first World title in 2026:
5. Jordynne Grace
Jordynne Grace’s exceptional TNA tenure and occasional appearances in NXT landed her a WWE contract last year. She was called up to the main roster recently and joined the SmackDown brand.
Immediately, The Juggernaut was inserted into the WWE Women’s title picture as seen during her feud with current champion Jade Cargill. Given Grace’s size, ability, and potential, her first World title could come in 2026.
4. LA Knight
LA Knight has proven over time that he has all the tools to become a bona fide main event player in WWE. He has won titles, delivered exceptional matches, and has the charisma to captivate the audience.
While he has come close to a World Championship win on numerous occasions, 2026 could be the time The Megastar gets the job done and calls himself a WWE World Champion.
3. Roxanne Perez
Roxanne Perez dominated the NXT landscape and had a major run as the NXT Women’s Champion during her tenure. This led to her main roster call-up to RAW, where she became a part of The Judgment Day and even won the WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles.
With exceptional in-ring talent and a whole faction supporting her, The Prodigy could very well add a World title to her resume in 2026.
2. Dominik Mysterio
Dominik Mysterio has garnered immense popularity as one of the most despised heels in WWE history. Moreover, legends like John Cena have praised his ability as a WWE superstar, and he has defeated top names like Cena in the ring and won several titles.
So, 2026 could be the time Dirty Dom finally reaches the pinnacle and begins his first reign as a WWE World Champion.
1. Bron Breakker
Bron Breakker has been regarded as one of the fastest-rising stars in WWE today. With Paul Heyman and The Vision by his side, he has become part of major storylines on RAW and even contended for the World title in a losing effort.
However, it could all change as 2026 unfolds, and the WWE Universe could very well witness The Unpredictable Badass claim his first-ever World Championship in the company.
