Why This News Matters
WWE has been a global entertainment powerhouse for decades, captivating audiences worldwide with its larger-than-life personalities and gripping storylines. As we approach 2026, anticipation is high for what the WWE has in store. This article delves into five potential storylines that could make 2026 a blockbuster year for the wrestling juggernaut.
Rising Stars Collide: Liv Morgan vs Stephanie Vaquer
Liv Morgan's injury-enforced hiatus in 2025 paved the way for Stephanie Vaquer's rise to the top, culminating in her becoming the WWE Women's World Champion. With Morgan expected to return in 2026, a showdown between these two promising stars could be a captivating spectacle.
Past Allies Turn Rivals: Cody Rhodes vs CM Punk
Both Cody Rhodes and CM Punk have been key figures in WWE since their returns. While they currently hold World Championships on SmackDown and RAW, respectively, a potential title loss and a move to the same show could ignite a long-awaited rivalry between the two.
Powerhouse Showdown: Jade Cargill vs Bianca Belair
Jade Cargill and Bianca Belair have shown great chemistry as a team, but the fans have been clamoring for a proper feud between the two powerhouses. With Cargill as a top heel champion on SmackDown and Belair expected to return in 2026, a blockbuster WrestleMania match could be on the cards.
Clash of the Titans: Brock Lesnar vs Gunther
Gunther's despised heel persona and his retirements of John Cena and Goldberg in 2025 have made him one of the most hated wrestlers in WWE. In 2026, he could set his sights on another legend, Brock Lesnar, who is rumored to end his career at SummerSlam. This program was almost a lock in 2024 but was postponed due to Lesnar's involvement in a legal case. However, 2026 could be the year for their epic feud.
Epic Showdown: The Rock vs Roman Reigns
The fans almost witnessed a dream clash between The Rock and Roman Reigns in 2024, but the unwavering support for Cody Rhodes led WWE to change the main event of WrestleMania 40. In 2026, this marquee showdown could finally take place, leading to a massive Bloodline program and a historic match at a major WWE Premium Live Event.
