Not everyone can get an opportunity at their brand’s main title. But there are some who deserve a chance to show the company what they are worth with a mid-card title shot.
WWE has plenty of talented wrestlers on their roster, who haven’t gotten their opportunity shine, and show how great they can be. It’s unfortunate because many of the people on this list could provide entertaining feuds, and put on great matches as they’ve shown in the past. More importantly, the wrestlers on this list could add new faces to mid card championship matches.
Everyone deserves their moment in the spotlight. If for no other reason than to see if they will rise to the occasion or if they will falter.
If Jinder Mahal can get plucked from jobber level, and get pushed into the WWE Championship picture almost over night, then it gives these five wrestlers hope. That maybe one day, their hard work and determination will pay off, and they too will receive their title shot.
5. Jason Jordan
Former American Alpha member, and Smackdown Live Tag Team Champion, Jason Jordan was recently moved to Raw as part of a storyline that saw him become Raw General Manager Kurt Angle’s illegitimate son.
Due to this storyline, it appears Jordan is destined for a huge push from WWE. Jordan’s push will more than likely start off with a mid-card title run; The Miz better watch out. A feud between Miz and Jordan is enticing too. Miz would outshine Jordan on the mic, but Jordan is more athletically gifted than Miz.
The matches the two would have would be show stealers too. Ever since Jordan teamed up with Gable, he’s been an entirely different performer in the ring. Teaming with Gable gave Jordan the confidence boost he needed. It seems he is more comfortable trusting himself, and the decisions he makes, in the ring. Leading to better matches, because Jordan isn’t afraid to take chances with his talent.
The Miz’s “Miztourage” would be his advantage to counteract Jordan’s athleticism. Always interfering in the matches Between Jordan and Miz. With No Mercy being the next Raw Pay-Per-View after SummerSlam, a steel cage match would be the perfect way to kick off this feud.
Throwing Jordan into the mix will be something welcomed by fans. Mainly because they are tired of seeing Dean Ambrose and The Miz wrestle each other for the hundredth time. (I may be exaggerating on that number a little.)
Jordan is very gifted athletically, and always put on a great match when paired with former tag partner Chad Gable. So, it will be interesting if he can make it work on his own.
