NEW DELHI: With the pro wrestling landscape undergoing significant transformations in 2023, with WWE changing ownership, CM Punk returning to the company, and Logan Paul clinching WWE gold, the anticipation for 2024 in the industry is palpable. While behind-the-scenes developments continue to shape the narrative, many wrestling talents remain steadfast in their pursuit of the ultimate goal – winning a world title.
In WWE, champions like Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, Rhea Ripley, and Iyo Sky currently hold the top titles in the men's and women's divisions.


As we embark on a new year, let's delve into the potential world title victories for some WWE stars in 2024, whether it's their first taste of championship glory or a return to the summit.
Damian Priest: The Archer of Infamy's Date with Destiny
Damian Priest, the current holder of the Money in the Bank (MITB) briefcase, stands at the precipice of championship success. While possessing the MITB contract is an achievement in itself, successfully cashing it in is the ultimate goal. With over 80 percent of MITB briefcase holders going on to win a title, Priest seems destined for glory. Despite teases of cash-ins being thwarted, the Archer of Infamy's talent and crowd appeal make a compelling case for a future world championship.


Whether he capitalizes on the MITB contract or achieves title success through another avenue, Priest's charisma, in-ring prowess, and ability to connect with the audience position him as a formidable contender for a world title in 2024.
Cody Rhodes: A Storyline Culmination Long Overdue
Cody Rhodes' return to WWE in 2022 marked a narrative trajectory that seemed destined for championship glory. The American Nightmare aimed to claim the elusive title that his father, Dusty Rhodes, never secured. Despite facing setbacks, including a pectoral muscle tear, Rhodes won the men's Royal Rumble in 2023 but fell short against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 39.

In 2024, the WWE Universe anticipates a satisfying conclusion to Rhodes' storyline, with a potential triumph over The Tribal Chief for the WWE Universal Championship. Barring unforeseen obstacles, Rhodes is poised to capture a world championship and fulfill the storyline that has captivated fans since his return.
Bianca Belair: The EST's Quest for Gold Continues
Already a former women's champion, Bianca Belair remains a top-tier talent destined for championship glory in 2024. Recognized for her exceptional in-ring skills and broader contributions, Belair's status as a top babyface sets the stage for her return to championship prominence.

Since dropping the belt to Iyo Sky in August, Belair has consistently showcased her prowess, participating in high-profile matches and demonstrating her value both inside and outside the ring. With her dynamic presence, media appeal, and remarkable athleticism, Belair is a strong contender to reclaim gold in 2024. Whether it happens at the Royal Rumble or later in the year, the EST is on track for another championship reign.
