Predicting the next 4 WWE Champions

Storyline
  1. Cody Rhodes: SummerSlam 2025

Cody finally overcomes Cena in a chaotic match to regain the championship. He spends the year defending it against a desperate Sami Zayn, a now-heel Randy Orton, and in a prolonged feud with Drew McIntyre. Unfortunately, Cody starts getting booed progressively, more and more, month in and out.

  1. Jacob Fatu: WrestleMania 42

The Samoan Werewolf's ascension into mega stardom is completed by winning the Royal Rumble decisively. Cody tries, and he takes it to Jacob like nobody else. He makes successful title defenses against Solo Sikoa (who turns face after losing to Jacob), Jey Uso, LA Knight, GUNTHER (in a hellacious yet awesome feud, criminal vs sophisticated prick, it just writes itself), and even Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 43 in Roman's farewell match.

  1. Cody Rhodes: Backlash In London 2027

Rhodes finally embraces the dark side, and turns heel in order to defeat Jacob and reign as champion for the third time. Rhodes forms his own Bloodline-esque stable, The Blackguard Legion, with his kids from AEW (Ricky Saints, Ethan Page, Jade Cargill), as well as Charlotte Flair, a retiring Randy Orton and the unstoppable Oba Femi! The Legion helps Cody fend off any and all challengers for months on end, as Rhodes' Homelander tendencies start getting out of hand. The Legion proves to be so powerful that nobody on the roster is able to stop them, despite working together.

  1. Dominik Mysterio: WrestleMania 44

Dirty Dom is the biggest babyface in the business by now, and he steps up to take out Rhodes. In the main event of WM 44, Dominik vs Cody goes down, and naturally it has tons of interference from The Legion. Dom fights back, and the heels get finally neutralized by a familiar unit that helps Dom - Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins... and the recently returned Dean Ambrose! Dom pins Cody with a Frog Splash to become WWE Champion, as well as the new face of WWE.
