After John Cena, 5 WWE Stars Who Can Become Grand Slam Champions Next

The November 10 edition of WWE RAW featured John Cena finally winning the Intercontinental Championship by defeating Dominik Mysterio for the title. The Never Seen 17 finally earned the one title that has eluded him throughout his career in his hometown of Boston. With this, Cena is now a Grand Slam Champion in WWE, having won every single available title on the main roster. Some other prominent stars to have already become Grand Slam Champions are Seth Rollins, The Miz, Randy Orton, AJ Styles, Rey Mysterio, and Roman Reigns. To become a Grand Slam Champion, a superstar needs to win either world title, a tag team championship, and both the United States Championship and the Intercontinental Championship. Some stars are just one title away from becoming Grand Slam Champions in the company. In this listicle, we will look at some of them who could follow in Cena's footsteps, as well as the title that they need to win to do so. 5. Cody Rhodes - United States ChampionshipThe American Nightmare won the Intercontinental Championship twice during his first run with the company. He is a multi-time tag team champion and is the current WWE Champion in his second reign. He only needs to win the United States Championship to become a Grand Slam Champion in WWE, but it seems unlikely right now, given his status at the top of the main event picture in the company. 4. Jey Uso - United States ChampionshipThe YEET Master is a record tag team champion in WWE, and won the Intercontinental Championship last year by defeating Bron Breakker. At WrestleMania 41, he made Gunther tap out to win the World Heavyweight Championship. He, like his former tag team partner, Cody Rhodes, is only missing the US Title to become a Grand Slam Champion in WWE. Perhaps he could eventually return to SmackDown to compete for the title in the future once he is done on RAW.3. Drew McIntyre - United States ChampionshipAfter failing to dethrone Cody Rhodes on multiple occasions, McIntyre could try to win the US Title from Ilja Dragunov to become a Grand Slam Champion. He is a multi-time world champion, a former tag team champion with Cody Rhodes, and a former Intercontinental Champion during his first run in WWE. The Scottish Warrior is currently suspended from SmackDown, but could make a surprise return to answer Dragunov's open challenge if he is to embark on a new story.2. Sheamus - Intercontinental ChampionshipSheamus @WWESheamusLINKSheamus defeats Cena, becomes WWE Champion: Dec 13, 2009. Sheamus defeats Cena, his final match ever: Dec 13th, 2025. ♻️👀Sheamus has been quite vocal about his desire to become a Grand Slam Champion. Like John Cena, he is only missing the Intercontinental Championship to complete the accomplishment. Interestingly, The Celtic Warrior is in the quarter finals of The Last Time is Now Tournament, and could perhaps revisit his rivalry with Cena if he wins the tournament. To make things even more exciting, he could dethrone Cena at Saturday Night's Main Event to finally become a Grand Slam Champion himself.1. Sami Zayn - WWE/World Heavyweight ChampionshipA four-time Intercontinental Champion, one-time United States Champion, and one-time Undisputed Tag Team Champion, Sami Zayn only needs to win a world title to become a Grand Slam Champion in WWE. Rumors suggest that the former NXT Champion is one of the top picks to win the Royal Rumble in 2026 and go on to challenge for a world title at WrestleMania.The Underdog From the Underdog has been one of the top babyfaces in the company for a long time, and could finally be rewarded with the world title at the Grandest Stage of Them All next year.
