WWE, AEW & NXT Names That Aren’t In The World Title Picture, But Should Be

*By Request*

 

“Who are people in AEW, NXT, and WWE that aren’t in the world title picture right now that you think should be? It can be people who have been world champions before, just as long as they aren’t in the picture today. Thank you.”

 

Hey, it’s another easy, straightforward request. Those are the best.

Looking at who is and isn’t involved in a World Title picture can be an interesting task. Sometimes, it’s easy… the World Champion, and the one person the World Champion is feuding with, are the only two people in the picture. Other times, the World Champion is feuding with more than person at once, making the picture a little bigger, and you’ll get a Triple Threat or a Fatal Four-Way or a Six-Pack Challenge, and so forth.

Then there’s the times when you have a one-on-one match for the title at a pay-per-view, but there are other challengers who have made their presence known, even if they aren’t involved in the pay-per-view match. Surely, those challengers still count as being in the picture, even if they, technically, aren’t competing for anything, right?

As I usually do with columns like this, I’ll be listing names in no particular order, but they’re all people that are currently doing something other than competing for the top title for their respective company, brand, or show.

 

Roxanne Perez: When it comes to pure in-ring skills, there aren’t many women on the entire WWE roster that can compete with Roxanne Perez. Yet, she has been the third most important woman in The Judgment Day pretty much from day one. That doesn’t make much sense to me. Look… I get it… Liv Morgan is a star and Raquel Rodriguez is a six-foot-tall badass. They’re going to get a ton of attention, and you can’t have all of them at the top at the same time. That’s cool and all, but Roxanne can’t even get a random shot at the Women’s World Championship? Nothing? Now, to be fair, I think that eventually, we’re going to get a story that sees Roxanne break away from the group, and if Liv Morgan is still the Women’s World Champion at that time… well, there’s your opportunity. For now, the fact that Roxanne hasn’t competed for a top singles title since challenging for the NXT Women’s Title over 15 months ago is a shame.

 

Brody King: When it comes to Brody, there is always going to be the people who search for some sort of conspiracy that may or may not be there. The last time he seemed to be getting a singles push, it was during the “Fuck ICE” phase, and AEW started receiving all sorts of complaints from all corners of the world that may not have otherwise paid any attention to a pro wrestling company. Then, his push just went away, and people were automatically accusing Tony Khan of catering to the complaints. There was a lot of confusing discourse on social media. The company, and their demographic, seem to be heavily skewed towards a more “liberal” point of view. However, the Khan family, and particularly the patriarch, Shad Khan, has had connections to Donald Trump, donating $1 million to Trump’s campaign for the 2016 Presidential election. Then, it was discovered that Shad Khan publicly distanced himself from Trump in the years since, saying that he disagreed with many of Trump’s policies and political rhetoric. Pro-Trump, anti-Trump, anti-ICE, liberal, conservative, Republican, Democrat… who knew what was what.

Forget all of that for a minute, though. There was a lengthy stretch of time when it could be argued that Brody King was the most consistent in-ring performer on the entire AEW roster. He was having great singles matches, great tag matches, great trios matches, and on and on. He was already really over with live crowds, but the more great performances he was having, the better his crowd reactions were becoming. That seems like World Champion material to me.

 

Carmelo Hayes: Baron Corbin is cool and all, but it sure seems like Trick Williams vs Carmelo Hayes for the WWE United States Title at SummerSlam was an easy choice to make. Trick and Melo have such a lengthy history together, and they have a ton of in-ring chemistry together. Fans love both men, and they were excited to see the match on a huge stage. Then, Corbin makes his return to WWE, and now, he has the United States Title match at SummerSlam, while Melo is on the sidelines with nothing going on.

If you absolutely, positively wanted to have Baron Corbin in a title match at SummerSlam, even though it doesn’t make a lick of sense for him to be involved, then just have a Triple Threat and get it over with.

It’s the perfect showcase for how WWE has been treating Melo ever since he dropped the United States Title back in March. He has consistently proven that he deserves more, and live crowds all over the globe have consistently proven that they want to see more for him.

I think Melo could easily shine in the Undisputed WWE Title picture, especially with people like CM Punk and Cody Rhodes holding the title. He’d do great work with guys like that, and with the other top names on Smackdown like Drew McIntyre, Gunther, Finn Balor, Sami Zayn, Randy Orton, and more. Why not give him a chance to show he can take the ball and run with it?

 

Tavion Heights: Here’s someone who certainly checks a lot of boxes for me when it comes to the types of professional wrestling that I love. He comes from a very solid amateur wrestling background, winning a bunch of medals in competitions all over the globe, and represented the United States at the 2020 Summer Olympics. Early on in his wrestling career (not even two years after he made his pro debut), he went on a mini-excursion to Japan to wrestle for Pro Wrestling NOAH, where he received further training from Keiji Muto and Naomichi Marufuji, both of whom are on my list of all-time favorite pro wrestlers.

Since returning from his stint in NOAH, you could see an actual change in his in-ring work. I felt that he was already picking the sport up quickly, but that time in Japan really helped things come together for him. Since then, he continues to have impressive performances against a wide variety of opponents… all sizes, all levels of experience… as he is trusted to handle more and more responsibilities.

He has competed for the NXT Tag Team Titles (with Myles Borne), the NXT North American Title (multiple times), the WWE Speed Title, and the NXT Heritage Cup, but the only NXT Title shot he’s ever had came at a house show at the very end of 2025.

I don’t think he’s main roster ready just yet, as he needs a little more work on his character and promo skills, but in that NXT “bubble,” I think he’s more than ready to be competing with the likes of Tony D’Angelo, Cruz Montana, and now, Grayson Waller. He has shown that he can handle both sides of the face/heel fence, and has the ability to handle several roles in doing so. Even if he doesn’t win the NXT Championship, I think he’d be successful in improving his status by even being involved in the title picture, even for a little bit.

 

Kazuchika Okada: There are endless lists that feature Okada as one of the greatest in-ring performers in the history of the business. He has been a participant in classic match after classic match through the years. His signing with AEW was viewed as a potential game-changer for the promotion, especially with word that WWE may have also been interested in him at the time.

With that said, did you know it has been nearly two years since Okada has competed for the AEW World Title? Did you also know that the aforementioned World Title match from nearly two years ago was his one and only shot at the title during his time with AEW?

That’s absolutely insane to me.

I wouldn’t say he’s necessarily being “wasted” in AEW, but I also wouldn’t put up much of a fight if you were to say he was being “wasted” in AEW.

 

Bandido: In the world of WWE, someone like Bandido could almost never be in a position to be a World Champion, simply because English isn’t his first language. Yes, he can speak English, but does he speak it enough to carry promo segments like WWE loves to use their World Champions in, week after week? No.

In AEW, while something like that still matters, it matters FAR less than it would in WWE. Guys like Kenny Omega and Darby Allin, even with English as their first language, aren’t exactly grouped in with guys like Arn Anderson, Mick Foley, Jake Roberts, John Cena, and Raven when it comes to the best “talkers” in wrestling history, and yet, Kenny and Darby now have a combined three reigns as the AEW World Champion.

As over as Bandido is with AEW crowds, they would happily accept him as the company’s World Champion, even if he isn’t going to be cutting 15-minute promos on a regular basis.

The only hurdle here is the biggest hurdle there can be in AEW… Tony Khan. He has proven, time and time again, that he either can’t or won’t push “RoH guys” as major singles stars on the AEW side of things. Bandido has been the RoH World Champion for the last 16 months with no problems whatsoever, but when it comes to the AEW side of things, he simply can’t break free of being a good tag wrestler and someone who can have great matches in a losing effort to the top AEW talent on the roster. I have yet to understand what TK’s problem is when it comes to making RoH wrestlers look great on AEW programming, but it’s something I think he needs to change, because Bandido could be a fantastic addition to the AEW World Title picture.

 

Otis: Oooh, intriguing! Admittedly, there isn’t a name on this list that would take as much work to become a legit World Title contender as it would to get Otis there. Yes, he is someone that is always over with live crowds, even though he doesn’t get regular usage. However, we’re talking about someone who hasn’t won a singles match on television since November 2023… and that took place on an episode of NXT. If you want the last time he won a singles match on main roster television, you have to go back to November 2022.

I don’t know if you’re a math whiz or not, but that was nearly four years ago.

Just for the sake of comparison, go back to Jinder Mahal’s shocking WWE Title victory in 2017. The week before he won the title, he won a singles match on Smackdown. Two weeks before that, he won another singles match on Smackdown. Another two weeks before that, he won yet another singles match on Smackdown.

Otis is someone, as I said, that is guaranteed to get good crowd pops, no matter where WWE is running a show. It certainly helps that the average wrestling fan looks a lot more like Otis than Brock Lesnar or Roman Reigns. Fans get behind Otis, and they want to support him. If he starts picking up some wins on television, even against “lesser” names, things could snowball quickly for him.

Again, I fully admit that it would take a lot of work. He’s not someone that would win a match on Raw this week and then get a World Title match next week. If… IF… the company lets that first domino fall, though, watch out.

 

Claudio Castagnoli: Jon Moxley obviously gets all of the hype and publicity when it comes to the Death Riders in AEW. Mox is the winningest person in AEW history, who also has the most AEW World Title reigns and most overall days as the AEW World Champion in company history.

That’s cool and all, but real ones know Claudio Castagnoli is the real killer in that group.

He’s 6’5″ and 230+ pounds, with all sorts of training in different in-ring styles, and possessing some of the greatest natural strength that anyone in the history of the business has ever had. His quarter-century-plus career is so completely full of great matches, ranging from small independent bouts to major title matches on pay-per-view.

It was pretty well documented that Vince McMahon never really saw Claudio as someone who could be a top star in his company. Vince paired Claudio with Paul Heyman after WrestleMania 30, and it looked like that was going to be the beginning of a major run for him, but it never happened. Years later, Heyman would say that the only reason he was paired with Cesaro was because Vince wanted Paul to be able to be on television every week and get heat by reminding everyone that Brock Lesnar ended The Undertaker’s streak at WrestleMania, because he wasn’t able to do it with Brock himself, who was taking another break and wouldn’t be around again until SummerSlam. There was never any real attempt made to have the Heyman and Cesaro pairing something that could take Cesaro to the next level.

In AEW, he could be someone that shines without the need for a “mouthpiece” like a Paul Heyman. The AEW fans know Claudio, and they’re well aware of what he’s capable of in the ring. If you put him in a position where he’s competing for the AEW World Title, the live crowds will accept him in that spot, and they’re going to try and make sure he stays there. He deserves it.

 

Bron Breakker: This is an easy one for me. I was on the “this guy’s a future World Champion and WrestleMania main eventer” bandwagon very early on in his NXT career, and I continue to think that’s the truth.

During the most recent season of WWE Unreal on Netflix, it was revealed that Bron was one of the company’s early choices to win the 2026 Royal Rumble match. Obviously, that didn’t end up happening, and it was Roman Reigns who would ultimately go on to win the match. Sure, it sucks that Bron wasn’t given his shot, but I did enjoy the story with Roman and CM Punk at WrestleMania. I even enjoyed the story with Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton, minus the nonsense with TKO inserting Pat McAfee for no reason. I guess that means I can’t complain too much about WWE going in a different direction for Bron at the Rumble.

The fact that he went from being on the verge of a WrestleMania main event spot to being a glorified bodyguard for Austin Theory and Maxxine Dupri in a matter of months should be viewed as a war crime, and those responsible for it should be tortured at the Guantánamo Bay detention camps.

If there’s any sort of positive about the current layout of The Vision, it’s that live crowds are going to lose their minds for Bron if/when he decides he’s had enough of their shit, and he could have a great run as a face coming out of that.

Either way, he’s someone that should not only be in a better position than he’s in now, but he’s someone that should be at the top of the card.

 

Ethan Page: This man has been a pro wrestler for nearly two full decades now, with successful runs pretty much everywhere he’s been… from AEW to NXT to Impact Wrestling to Evolve to AAA to PWG, and just about everywhere in between… but he remains one of the most underrated talents in the entire game.

Coming off of a successful stint in NXT, there was a lot of buzz surrounding him once he was called up to Raw. In the three-plus months that he’s been on the main roster, he has been firmly planted in the Intercontinental Title picture, although he hasn’t won the title yet.

I think he would be better served in a larger role, though, to be honest. In the ring, he’s more than “good enough” to be in the World Title picture, but when you add his promo skills to the mix, and his ability to get heat, he’s someone that could easily shine in that spot.

Of course, the biggest problem is being able to convince a good chunk of the main roster fan base that he “belongs” in the same stratosphere as someone like Roman Reigns, who has been booked to appear head and shoulders above even the most established of main event talents over the last six years. That’s a challenge, but I think it’s a challenge that he could rise to if given the opportunity to do so.

 

Shelton Benjamin: At 51 years old, Shelton is the oldest person on this list by a good four years. That’s pretty old for a first-time World Champion, sure, but Shelton is also a special exception to whatever “rule” there is for that kind of thing.

For one, the man still looks and moves around like he’s 15-20 years younger than he really is. The real key, though, might be the difference between WWE and AEW that I mentioned earlier. In WWE, Shelton was often viewed as someone who could “go” in the ring, but didn’t have the mic skills and overall personality to handle anything more than the Intercontinental Title. In AEW, that’s something that doesn’t matter much. There isn’t as much of a focus on those types of things, allowing for wrestlers to get pushed that wouldn’t stand a chance of getting a push in WWE, especially when Vince McMahon was in charge.

Bobby Lashley is viewed as the bigger star in The Hurt Syndicate, and for good reason, but I think Shelton is the group member that deserves this spot more, as well as the group member that would have the better journey and performances while being there.

 

Bayley: There’s a big part of me that wants to see Bayley go to AEW when her contract reportedly expires before the 2026 calendar year comes to an end. New (or at least fresh) matchups and feuds up and down the card, and a fan base that is going to go nuts for her.

At the same time, there’s also a big part of me that wants to see Bayley re-sign with WWE. It’s damn near impossible to picture a WWE scene without Bayley around, especially with the former Sasha Banks already out of the picture, and with Becky Lynch seemingly moving to the part of her career where she gets more time off than ever.

Either way, I can say that I’m not happy with Bayley’s spot on the WWE card these days. The last time she competed for one of the main roster’s top titles on television was on the January 17th, 2025 episode of Smackdown. That was over a year-and-a-half ago! The last time she held one of those titles on the main roster was SummerSlam 2024, when she dropped the WWE Women’s Title to Nia Jax. Two years? That’s wild. It’s wrong.

If she’s sticking around, and isn’t just sitting out of the rest of her contract (Lyra Valkyria did a promo after defeating Bayley recently that said she ran Bayley out of the company), I’d love to see her return to her old glory. She’s been a stepping stone for too long.

 

Samoa Joe: Is 47-year-old Samoa Joe the same worker that 27-year-old Samoa Joe was? No. He isn’t even the same worker that 37-year-old Samoa Joe was. I have no problem admitting that. Father Time comes for us all. It’s how things have always worked.

When it comes to Joe in AEW, though, I don’t think people are really looking at him as this over-the-hill wrestler who is a shell of his former self. Let’s not forget… he was the AEW World Champion seven months ago, and the AEW fan base accepted it with their arms wide open. He’s still a badass that is believable in being able to beat the hell out of anyone on the roster, and he can still cut a promo that is going to capture your attention right away.

He’s reportedly a few weeks away from being able to return after taking a brief hiatus to film the latest season of the Twisted Metal series. He might not be able to return at All In(nit), which takes place four days after Twisted Metal is scheduled to complete filming, but he’s on his way back one way or another. If it were up to me, Joe would return, at All In(nit) or otherwise, and immediately get back into the AEW World Title picture.

 

Trick Williams: This is another one that makes a lot of sense to me. There aren’t too many people on the entire WWE roster that can say they’re more over than Trick Williams these days, and it all begins with that entrance that gets everyone in the building involved. Something so simple leads to him moving quickly up the proverbial ladder, and we’ve watched his character grow, including a pairing with rapper Lil Yachty that has worked better than anyone… including Trick and Boat themselves… could’ve imagined.

Those live crowds are ready to see Trick advance up the card again. Now that he has dropped the United States Title to Baron Corbin, it remains to be seen what happens to him, but fans are ready, and I think Trick Willy is ready, too.

 

Do you think the names on this list are ready to be involved in the top title pictures of their respective shows/brands/companies? Who am I missing that you feel is too low on the card and deserves to at least be in contention for the top titles right now, if not outright winning them? As always, feel free to hit me up in the comments section below, on Twitter (@HustleTheSavage), or on Bluesky (@aaronhyden.bsky.social), and let me know what’s on your mind.

Now, let’s get to my Weekly Power Rankings before closing things out with the list of songs I was listening to as I put this column together.

 

 

Weekly Power Rankings

Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins: The modern-day WWE pay-per-view main event epic that involves Roman Reigns. You know exactly what you’re going to get, and it continues to work, six years later. With results like that, it’s hard to expect the company to try something different.

Grayson Waller: That was one helluva “shoot” promo he cut on NXT. He’s always had the gift of gab, but this promo put him in a good position because you could agree with just about everything he said. He wasn’t just a cocky heel that was out there talking to talk. The man even found the time to put over the entire NXT women’s division, getting a pop from the crowd in the middle of the promo. In one night, I became very invested in Waller’s return to NXT.

Willow Nightingale: Watching her get so emotional while the Dynamite crowd chanted and cheered for her damn near made me emotional. She was REALLY flustered by their reaction, and it showed. The woman is just so likable, and yes, she does deserve the flowers she’s getting.

Oba Femi vs Brock Lesnar: Did they take advantage of the Hell In A Cell stipulation? No, not an awful lot. Did it really hurt the overall match? No, not an awful lot. This was everything it needed to be. Two of the biggest, badassiest dudes in the business beating the hell out of each other.

Liv Morgan vs Iyo Sky: When these two square off, it’s going to be a physical contest. You’d almost think there’s some sort of legitimate dislike there with how willing they are to beat each other up. This was a fun one, and it was on the verge of becoming REALLY good when it came to an end. It was still really enjoyable, though.

Chelsea Green: The crowd wanted her to win, and the crowd got to see her win. Just like that, Chelsea Green is the new interim WWE Women’s Champion. What a ride this has been. Everyone is already dunking on Michael PS Hayes for his comments on the previous season of WWE Unreal, but I think it’s too early for that. Yes, she is technically a World Champion in WWE now, but Chelsea has a match against Rhea Ripley at some point soon when Rhea is able to return from her knee injury. Winning a Ladder Match is one thing, especially in the fashion that Chelsea won at SummerSlam. It’s a different beast altogether to have her beating Rhea Ripley in a one-on-one match to become the undisputed Women’s Champion. If she faces Rhea and Rhea wins somewhat easily, that still tends to “prove” Freebird’s point, doesn’t it?

CM Punk vs Cody Rhodes: An old school, slower-paced match that was still really good, but perhaps not what people were expecting it to be. With the way the match was laid out, it was probably better served for the spot on the card it had, instead of being the main event.

Penta vs Chad Gable: The incredible journey for Chad Gable continues with him winning his first singles title in WWE, doing so in his hometown in front of family, friends, and fellow Minnesotans. A fun match that could’ve built up to a classic if it was given more time, but the right man won, and he won it in the right situation.

Nick Aldis vs Gunther: During his interview with Chris Van Vliet, Nick Aldis was worried about whether or not he was going to let people down with his performance at SummerSlam. Now that the match is over, I’m comfortable in saying that he did not let people down. What a fun match this was, and even if he doesn’t ever return to the ring, it was a great way for him to go out. His dream was to wrestle for WWE, and he has now wrestled for WWE… in a football stadium… at SummerSlam… in front of his family. Great stuff.

Finn Bálor vs Sami Zayn vs Gunther vs Kevin Owens: Finn vs Sami could’ve been great all on its own. When Gunther was added to the match, the quality was never going to be affected, but you could see the scenario where neither Finn or Sami was going to win. Then, we got the big return of Kevin Owens, and it was electric. Once KO turned around during his entrance, looking up at his big screen, you could see how much it meant to him to be back. Him going on to win this was the icing on the cake, even if the match ended up being obscenely short considering the amount of talent involved.

Kenny Omega & Will Ospreay: Neither man is known for their promo skills, but I thought they both did a really good job of starting to sell their match at All In(nit) after what happened between them at Redemption. There’s still a few weeks until we get to All In(nit), but we’re off to a really nice start.

Andrade vs Nick Wayne vs Jack Perry: It was the modern-day televised wrestling special, where you already know who is going to win a match, but the match ends up being fun. There was never a chance that Andrade was going to lose the AEW National Title here, but it was an enjoyable match.

Rey Mysterio vs “All Ego” Ethan Page: A fun match, yes, but an important win for Ethan Page. It doesn’t matter that Rey Mysterio isn’t what he once was… when you can pin a Hall Of Famer, it means a lot.

Rey Fenix vs JD McDonagh: The matches are all good, but it’s weird to see WWE just throw the AAA Cruiserweight Champion on their programming, especially when the matches aren’t happening in places that are seen as hot Lucha Libre locations. It’s one thing when you’re running a city like Los Angeles, San Antonio, Phoenix, or another city with a strong Mexican culture… it would make sense to have AAA matches there. Green Bay, Atlantic City, London, Providence… those aren’t what I think of when I think of Mexican culture and Mexican people. What do I know?

Je’Von Evans vs Rusev: Did you know that Je’Von and Rusev have faced each other… either through singles, tag, six-man matches, etc… approximately 1,937 times in 2026? Hard to believe, I know, but I triple-checked my math, and it’s correct. Sure, the matches are good, but 1,937 times in seven months? That seems like a lot.

Randy Orton: The overall WWE presentation is better when Randy is around, so it was nice to see him make his return after being gone for the last three-plus months.

Haku: It was great to see Uncle Tonga on television again. Even if it wasn’t, though, I’d include him here, simply because I wouldn’t want to make him angry and have him hunt me down. He’s a very interesting addition to the presentation of his sons, Tama Tonga and Talla Tonga, even if he isn’t there as a permanent or even regular player.

Kofi & Austin Creed: They released a brief animated video on social media to announce that they’re officially free agents after their non-compete clause with WWE came to an end. The video was good, especially the part where the two unicorns stopped to see the third unicorn with the broken horn, silently checking if it was okay that they leave, only for the third unicorn to give them his blessing. Beautiful symbolism. My only concern is that I think it’s really played out when you see wrestlers get released by WWE and they, in one way or another, refer to themselves as now being released from a prison or an animal freed from its cage. Yes, you’re going to get the AEW diehards that pop for those references, but for anyone else, it makes you look out of touch, and even pretty disingenuous. The average person doesn’t want to hear about millionaires and multi-millionaires comparing themselves to prisoners or trapped animals. Not in this economy.

Raquel Rodriguez: Congratulations to the brand new WWE Women’s Intercontinental Champion. It’s the first time she has held a singles title since she dropped the NXT Women’s Title to Mandy Rose in October 2021. She has done such a good job of being a tag wrestler, but she deserves this singles run, and I’m excited to see what the company does with her.

Motor City Machine Guns: They’re the newest AEW signings, and they got to debut in front of their home state crowd. That’s the good news. The bad news is that we’ve seen dozens and dozens of big free agent signings in AEW, and they’ll start off hot, only to be forgotten about when the next “flavor of the month” arrives. Of course, that’s what happened with MCMG in WWE, isn’t it? As talented as they are, I’d love to see Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin succeed in AEW for more than just a few weeks, but we’ll have to see, I guess.

Baron Corbin: Congratulations to the brand new WWE United States Champion. Sure, he probably shouldn’t have been in the match to begin with, and sure, this just makes people want to see Carmelo Hayes get his shine even more, but congratulations nonetheless.

Ricochet, Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona: Congratulations to the brand new AEW Trios Champions. More often than not, those titles don’t mean much, so it remains to be seen if these guys can change that, but at least they’re champions, so there’s that.
