How to unlock the One Step Closer To The Gold achievement in WWE SmackDown vs. RAW 2011 - Definitive Guide
-Go to My WWE and click "Team Management".
-Delete all teams besides the WWE Unified Tag Team Champions
-Create a new team with your created character and someone good like Undertaker or Randy Orton.
-Simulate a few weeks of WWE Universe and you'll almost definitely wind up booked in a contenders match. Play it and win.
Congrats on your achievement!
P.S. If you suck at tag matches like I do, go to match creator right before the match starts and make it a First to a Finisher match with Momentum Gain on Fastest. Super easy!
Another method is to create a Diva and place her on whatever brand has the least amount of girl wrestlers (I only have 3 girls on Smackdown counting my created one). She'll be booked in matches almost immediately and pretty much be in every contendership match for that title.

You need to have a CAW on either SmackDown or Raw and work your way to the top by winning matches against rivals. Depending upon which brand you wrestle on, go for either the US Championship or the Intercontinental Championship, as it will take less time to reach #1 Contender than if you went for one of the World titles. You actually need to win a #1 contender match to get this trophy rather than just reach number one in the rankings. To make it even quicker, I advise you to remove ten superstars from the brand you are currently wrestling on. It should not take much longer than five weeks in WWE Universe mode to reach number one contender if you have followed the above guidelines.
Note: Deleting superstars after you have started going for the title could reset your progress.
