Who are the current champions in World Wrestling Entertainment? Who do I think will beat them for the title to become the next to hold the belt?
Here is a list of all the WWE Superstars and associated wrestlers for Raw, SmackDown, NXT, EVOLVE, AAA and more who are holding a title right now and some predictions for who may dethrone them to become the next champion.
Raw & SmackDown Titles (Main Roster)
UNDISPUTED WWE CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Sami Zayn
Won: September 11, 2026 on SmackDown
Next champion prediction
Cody Rhodes
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: I'm still expecting CM Punk versus Cody Rhodes to be the WrestleMania plan, and their recent tease on SmackDown only made me lean further in that direction. That makes Cody my pick to eventually take the title from Sami Zayn, though Punk winning it back first is still possible. Bron Breakker is another option somewhere down the line, but I don't see him being the one to take it directly from Zayn.
WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Roman Reigns
Won: April 19, 2026 at WrestleMania 42 - Sunday
Next champion prediction
Oba Femi or Bron Breakker
Prediction confidence: High
Explanation: The logical pick right now is that King of the Ring Oba Femi wins the title. I have my suspicions that won't happen, though. It could just be that simple, but WWE so often does some weird roundabout nonsense b.s. instead of going with the "just put the belt on the guy" method. Essentially, I wouldn't be shocked if they messed this up and turned this into a "build him up so Roman looks strong" scenario ☝️.
WWE WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Chelsea Green
Won: August 2, 2026 at SummerSlam Sunday
Next champion prediction
Charlotte Flair
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: With Chelsea Green now recognized as the WWE Women's Champion rather than an interim champion, Charlotte Flair still feels like one of the most obvious people positioned to eventually take the title from her.
WWE WOMEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Stephanie Vaquer
Won: September 12, 2026 at WWE Live in Santiago, Chile
Next champion prediction
Becky Lynch
Prediction confidence: Low
Explanation: Becky Lynch being the special guest referee for Vaquer's title win gave WWE an easy thread to follow, and both Becky and Liv Morgan are now in the mix around the championship. I'm still leaning toward Becky as the person who eventually takes the title, but this remains a low-confidence prediction.
MEN'S WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Chad Gable
Won: August 2, 2026 at WWE SummerSlam Sunday
Next champion prediction
Ethan Page
Prediction confidence: High
Explanation: I can't imagine a better person to hold the belt next than Ethan Page, can you?
WWE WOMEN'S INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Raquel Rodriguez
Won: July 27, 2026 on WWE Monday Night Raw
Next champion prediction
Roxanne Perez
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: I'm going to keep pitching Perez wins this belt and fights AJ Lee at some point until it happens. Manifest!
MEN'S WWE UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Trick Williams
Won: September 6, 2026 at Sunday Night's Main Event
Next champion prediction
Damian Priest or Royce Keys
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: SmackDown definitely needs to shuffle its roster. Unless Royce Keys is somehow still on that brand instead of Raw (which he seems to be) going forward, these are the two I can imagine filling this role. Everyone else is either higher than the United States title scene, like Gunther, or they're a babyface, like Finn Balor. Priest turning on R-Truth and going heel makes him a much stronger possibility now, while Keys will get SOMETHING down the line and is still technically listed as a SmackDown star. A draft or some trades can really shake things up, though.
WWE WOMEN'S UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Jacy Jayne
Won: August 14, 2026 on SmackDown
Next champion prediction
Tatum Paxley
Prediction confidence: Low
Explanation: This could go to a number of people, but I don't feel super confident in any of them. Tiffany Stratton, Giulia, and so forth are in the running. But I'll go with Tater Tot.
WWE WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
The Vision
Won: July 6, 2026 at Raw
Next champion prediction
The Usos (Jey Uso & Jimmy Uso)
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: OTM has a chance to win these belts, but WWE doesn't even seem to know who is heel and who is face right now, so I'm just going to keep The Usos down.
WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
The MFTs (Talla Tonga & Tama Tonga)
Won: August 14, 2026 on SmackDown
Next champion prediction
Shinsuke Nakamura and Kyoki
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: Why not?
WWE WOMEN'S TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
Fatal Influence (Fallon Henley & Lainey Reid)
Won: July 18, 2026 at Saturday Night's Main Event
Next champion prediction
Tiffany Stratton and Chelsea Green
Prediction confidence: High
Explanation: Depending on when Green drops the WWE Women's Championship, this could be the next thing.
NXT / EVOLVE / ID Titles (Developmental)
WWE NXT CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Grayson Waller
Won: August 30, 2026 at NXT Heatwave
Next champion prediction
Cruz Montana
Prediction confidence: High
Explanation: Mason Rook may be the next challenger, but I don't think he's the one taking the title from Grayson Waller. Cruz Montana still feels like the strongest long-term pick to me. Keanu Carver and Zilla Fatu were other possibilities, but Carver royally messed that up and got himself fired, and Zilla seems to be in a different spot right now. He could still come back around to winning it, though.
WWE NXT WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Kelani Jordan
Won: August 30, 2026 at NXT Heatwave
Next champion prediction
Kendal Grey
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: Who are the top babyfaces in the women's division?
WWE NXT NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Jackson Drake
Won: August 30, 2026 at NXT Heatwave
Next champion prediction
Shiloh Hill
Prediction confidence: Not predicting
Explanation: A lot of people could be in the running for this. Mason Rook comes to mind, along with EK Prosper, Saquon Shugars, Elio LeFleur when he returns, etc.
WWE NXT WOMEN'S NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Zaria
Won: June 9, 2026 at NXT
Unified with WWE Women's Speed Championship: August 30, 2026 at NXT Heatwave
Next champion prediction
Jaida Parker
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: I'm hoping Zaria has a rather long title reign, so by the time she's about to drop it, there could be all sorts of new women added to the roster. Some people to watch out for would be Lizzy Rain, Myka Lockwood (if Zaria were to turn face), Kali Armstrong, and maybe Izzi Dame, but I'll bank on it being Jaida Parker.
WWE NXT TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
Swipe Right of The Vanity Project (Brad Baylor & Ricky Smokes)
Won: August 30, 2026 at NXT Heatwave
Next champion prediction
Noam Dar and Romeo Moreno
Prediction confidence: Low
Explanation: Shot in the dark.
MEN'S WWE EVOLVE CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Harlem Lewis
Won: July 15, 2026 on WWE EVOLVE
Next champion prediction
Harley Riggins
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: Harley Riggins has been getting a lot of attention lately, so I'm going to make him my pick to be the next EVOLVE champion. There are still plenty of other possibilities, but Riggins feels like the strongest prediction right now.
WOMEN'S WWE EVOLVE CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Nikkita Lyons
Won: June 24, 2026 at EVOLVE: Succession III
Next champion prediction
Layla Diggs
Prediction confidence: Low
Explanation: I could see a scenario where Diggs moves on to NXT before she gets this belt, or maybe they give the title to someone who moves down from NXT more so like Wren Sinclair or Thea Hail. There's no telling which other women end up on this brand in the meantime, too.
MEN'S WWE ID CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Max Abrams
Won: June 26, 2026 at Nightmare Factory: The ID Showcase
Next champion prediction
n/a
Prediction confidence: Not predicting
Explanation: It isn't worth trying to predict how people who aren't truly signed to the company can win titles on house shows that aren't aired.
WOMEN'S WWE ID CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Monica Monroe
Won: October 3, 2026 at Reality of Wrestling: Rise to Wrestling Royalty
Next champion prediction
n/a
Prediction confidence: Not predicting
Explanation: There's no use in predicting it, to be honest, just the same as the men's.
WWE / AAA Championships
Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide championships currently tracked under the WWE title scene.
AAA MEGA CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
El Grande Americano
Won: September 13, 2026 at AAA Triplemania 34 - Night 2
Next champion prediction
Dominik Mysterio
Prediction confidence: Medium
Explanation: Dominik just lost the title in an overbooked No Disqualification match that ended with Rey Mysterio counting the fall, so a rematch is the easiest direction to imagine. Whether WWE actually puts the belt right back on him is another question.
AAA REINA DE REINAS CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
La Catalina
Won: September 13, 2026 at AAA Triplemania 34 - Night 2
Next champion prediction
Raquel Rodriguez
Prediction confidence: Low
Explanation: I'm taking a shot in the dark that whenever Judgment Day finally breaks up, Raquel Rodriguez could do a stint in AAA and end up being the one to beat La Catalina for the title.
AAA WORLD CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
Rey Fenix
Won: May 30, 2026 at Noche de Los Grandes
Next champion prediction
Jack Cartwheel
Prediction confidence: Low
Explanation: I'm sticking with Jack Cartwheel as a low-confidence pick. Dragon Lee could also be next in line if WWE considers him a cruiserweight, as they do seem to like Lee a lot and could easily put him into this title picture.
AAA LATIN AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champion
La Parka
Won: August 30, 2026 at AAA Ola de Calor
Next champion prediction
El Fiscal
Prediction confidence: Not predicting
Explanation: I don't know.
AAA WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
El Hijo de Dr. Wagner Jr. & Galeno del Mal
Won: September 13, 2026 at AAA Triplemania 34 - Night 2
Next champion prediction
Pagano and El Carnicero
Prediction confidence: Low
Explanation: They're a tag team with an unstoppable monster type character. I can see them heading in this direction.
AAA WORLD MIXED TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
La Hiedra & Laredo Kid
Won: July 25, 2026 at AAA Verano de Escandalo
Next champion prediction
I have legitimately no idea.
Prediction confidence: Not predicting
Explanation: This could be practically any woman and man combination of people in AAA, NXT, EVOLVE, WWE, etc. There's no real "division" to speak of, so it's totally random. For all we know, this could be Omos paired with Sarah Schreiber.
AAA WORLD TRIOS CHAMPIONSHIP
Current champions
Los Perros del Mal (Daga, Angel & Berto)
Won: September 11, 2026 at AAA Triplemania 34 - Night 1
Next champion prediction
I have no idea.
Prediction confidence: Low
Explanation: I legitimately have no clue.
