With the WWE United States Championship changing hands on SmackDown, there could be even more title changes coming soon.
From bouts that could happen on TV to others that might be reserved for the upcoming WWE Survivor Series 2025, there are some intriguing options for who could become the next champions in WWE.
Here are nine more new WWE Champions that could be coming soon.
WWE World Heavyweight Champion — Bron Breakker
When Seth Rollins was taken out of action due to injury in real life, in storyline it was Bron Breakker who took him out.
Seemingly hesitant to give back the WWE World Heavyweight Championship once it was in his grasp, Breakker seem intent on chasing the title.
While CM Punk continues to contend with the potential Survivor Series WarGames multi-man match that seems on the horizon, it would certainly seem that Breakker would have a good shot of being the one to eventually win the title from Punk.
Potentially setting up a new major battle for WrestleMania 42 — pitting Bron Breakker against Roman Reigns, it could be that the creative shake-up after Seth Rollins’ injury could bring an expected delight.

WWE Women’s World Champion — Roxanne Perez
With Stephanie Vaquer picking up the WWE Women’s World Championship, she has gone on to make an immediate mark in her first reign as champ in WWE.
While she continues to be persistently hunted by Roxanne Perez and Perez’s Judgment Day tag team partner Raquel Rodriguez — it could be that Vaquer will end up putting her title on the line soon.
Making for a compelling match, it could end up being The Prodigy’s time to pick up the top women’s gold, only to be immediately rocked by a ghost from her past.
Able to usher the return of Liv Morgan as not only an instant babyface but a top contender to take on the new champion Perez — the demise of Judgment Day could be near.

Intercontinental Champion — John Cena
While the Judgment Day in general continues to seem on somewhat shaky ground, Dominik Mysterio now has his lucha legend father Rey Mysterio to contend with.
After Rey Mysterio made his surprise return on WWE Raw to interrupt Dominik, it would seem that perhaps the elder Mysterio could be in the title hunt as well.
While there were previous reports that Survivor Series was set to see Dominik defend his IC title against John Cena — the stakes could get even bigger if the bout became a triple-threat that also included Rey Mysterio.
With IC title the last remaining championship in WWE that John Cena has never won, it would seem that it is now or never for Cena who only has Dominik Mysterio standing between him and the WWE Grand Slam that has eluded him throughout his career.

Women’s Intercontinental Champion — AJ Lee
Since Becky Lynch has captured a decisive victory over Lyra Valkyria that puts her out of challenger contention, it seems that she could be facing a crossroads.
Potentially set to face off against continued rival AJ Lee after Lynch lost to her at Wrestlepalooza in the mixed tag team match that also featured her husband — Bayley could also stake a reasonable claim to wanting next shot at Becky.
In what could prove to be an amazing triple-threat match between them, AJ Lee could pick up the Intercontinental Championship victory but with the giant caveat that she doesn’t pin Becky Lynch.
Sending Lynch on a months long crusade to reclaim her title, Becky would be forced to battle back through the ranks in order to get another shot at AJ Lee for WrestleMania 42.

World Tag Team Champions — The New Day
With the new partnership of AJ Styles and Dragon Lee finally able to capture the World Tag Team titles from the Judgment Day’s Finn Balor and JD McDonagh, it could be time even more shake-ups.
Given that there are numerous teams that could be next in line for a title shot, there could be an epic battle between the Creed Brothers, Erik & Ivar, Alpha Academy and The New Day to determine who faces the champs next.
Hopefully a primer for the return of Matt and Jeff Hardy to WWE and the unscoured ground between the two iconic teams of The New Day and the Hardy Boyz — it could be that Styles & Lee are transitional champions.
Add in the potential reunion of The Usos in pursuit of tag team gold together again, it could make for a very historic WrestleMania season.

Women’s Tag Team Champions — Nia Jax & Lash Legend
While the unlikely duo of Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair have continued their journey together as a team and reigning women’s tag team champions, a new duo of challengers has emerged.
Already making her mark on the main roster in her debut segment, Lash Legend attacked Alexa Bliss on the outside of the ring and created a distraction for Flair inside of it.
With Nia Jax able to capitalize and deliver her finishing move the Annihilator, it seems that the feud between these four women is just getting started.
Definitely in line with the previously reported plans for Survivor Series WarGames to feature both the duo of Flair & Bliss as well as Jax & Legend, their rivalry could definitely spill over into a title change in the future.

WWE United States Championship – Tommaso Ciampa
Picking up the mantle of the United States Championship open challenge when he bested Sami Zayn to capture the gold, Ilja Dragunov has proven himself a fighting champion.
However, after recently dodging Ciampa and instead electing to face Johnny Gargano in a hard fought battle and later being mocked by Nathan Frazer and Axiom backstage over the missed shot at Ilja — a continued showcase of talent could be on the horizon.
While Ciampa and Dragunov have yet to do war over the United States Championship, it would make complete sense to see their inevitable title bout and potential title change happen at a PLE.
With the pair of veteran heavy hitters able to put on a stunning display of both speed and strength, their eventual showdown will certainly be one to watch.

WWE Tag Team Championship – MFTs
Since attempting to overthrow the Bloodline, Solo Sikoa went on to create his own stable around him of loyal family members.
With the MFTs featuring Sikoa as their leader but also the dangerous forces of Tama Tonga, Tonga Loa, Talla Tonga and JC Mateo — any combination of forces could end up being the ones to claim the WWE Tag Team Championship.
While they are currently feuding with the Wyatt Sicks, it could actually be the MFTs who end up toppling the spooky stable.
Possibly leading to a longer feud in the future, it would be even more enjoyable to see the Sicks stalking the MFTs and potentially bringing comeuppance for Solo Sikoa’s past betrayals.

Women’s Speed Championship – ZARIA
After Sol Ruca picked up an injury and could no longer compete, she would go on to elect to vacate the Speed Championship rather than having ZARIA defend it on her behalf.
Entering the tournament to determine the next winner, ZARIA seems intent on winning — perhaps by any means necessary.
Perhaps seeing the eventual demise of Sol Ruca & ZARIA’s partnership despite Ruca’s injury, the storyline could lead to the pair splitting and possibly a new heel persona for ZARIA.
With the ability to be called up to the main roster in the near future, it would be great to see ZARIA introduced on the main roster as a champion.
