Some Potential Juggernauts

How about Renekton for a start? The whole point is that he can stomp mobile fighters like Riven, and that he can out-duel other juggernauts in the early game (i.e. Nasus) Shyvana can also be a great juggernaut, and so would Olaf, but isn't Riot already working on them? A few more champs that could be awesome juggernauts could be: Aatrox- He has a lot of problems right now, even with the new items. Maybe do something to help him scale with HP so that he can be a better tank Volibear- He's already kind of juggernauty (is that a new word?), but maybe some love to help him be more realistic as a pick in the top lane (where does he even go?) Yorick (?)- Sounds like he could be a great juggernaut with a good rework. Slow movement, but a lot of slows to catch up, and a bit of a twist with his ult Singed- He has needed a touch-up in a long while because he is frankly not used very often, and his kit is very awkward in the meta. Maybe give him a more Juggernaut-like rework and people would be encouraged to play him top :) IDK, these are the few guys I can think of. If there's anyone else, mention it.
I feel like there are a lot of potential juggernauts (or guys who are already juggs) like Hecarim or Trundle, but feel free to help me out with the list :D

Singed is more of a tank, and his whole playstyle is really the opposite of the "up in your face, and has to be" idea of the Juggernaut.

Voli I could see being done as a Juggernaut, but I'd really rather see him kept in the jungle. It's where bearflips belong.

Yorick's main problem is that his whole thing up until now has been the way he spams a bunch of ghouls at range. That's not a Juggernaut at all. Any potential kit would have to be an entirely new thing.

Meddler has already said that as long as Aatrox keeps his Q they can't really make him into a Juggernaut.

Renekton's dashes and his whole trade combo (E in, auto W auto Q E out) means that he's waaaaaay more mobile and bursty than they like the Juggs to be.
