Unfortunately, WWIII will be global suicide, therefore in answer to your question, as long as there's rational superpowers who believe in MAD, there will be no WW3. By definition, the next world war wil be nuclear, how could it not. In a nuclear war there will be no winner. In a nuclear world, the only true enemy is war itself.
The next World War will involve a nuclear exchange, how could it not if both sides believe no price for victory will be too high. In the first 30 minutes, nearly a billion people will have been vaporised, mostly in the US, Russia, Europe, China and Japan. Another 1.5 billion will die shortly thereafter from radiation poisoning. The northern hemisphere will be plunged into prolonged agony and barbarity.
Eventually the nuclear winter will spread to the southern hemisphere and all plant life will die. You ask what country would be victorious, you are asking when will we commit global suicide. My answer is it won't happen soon because the larger superpowers are more rational than the rump states in the middle east.
While we hear talk of a nuclear-Iran or a confrontation with NorKor, little is said about the 2 bulls in the glass shop. The arsenals of Russia and the US are enough to destroy a million Hiroshimas. But there are fewer than 3000 cities on the Earth with populations of 100,000 or more. You cannot find anything like a million Hiroshimas to obliterate. Prime military and industrial targets that are far from cities are comparatively rare. Our biggest threat is from an accidental launch by the Russians.
At the point of global suicide, it doesn't matter who is on what side.... In a nuclear age like i said before, the only true enemy is war itself.

War is regularly there. In the History of the complete international adding all international locations it has stated in all the ones 1000s of years the earth has had best a number of hundred years in which there was once now not a few sort of war towards an additional country. With that stated what do you believe that we can see extra - certainly! Let the bullets fly! It turns out the fine trade nowadays is in ammo!

I would guess - Syria, Iran, Cuba, Afghanistan, North Korea, & China (money from drug cartels in S American countries)
VS
USA, UK, Canada, Mexico, Israel, Australia, Germany, Pakistan, India, Russia, Greece & a few others.
Iraq will depend on if the war is finished or surrendered.
It would be a long & bloody war. ( the Bible calls it the final war & the great writers called it Amegeddon) It must be prevented through strength - fear stops bullies & that describes N Korea & Iran.

Western civilisation against an Islamic empire.
If the terrorists win you'll have another superpower. Imagine a USSR run by Nazis.
We may never fight them again but they'll be there.
We're heading for another cold war, the enemy will be either a united caliphate or red China.
We may fight the Islamofascist empire again in 20 years. China may step in to help us defeat them as Russia did to the Nazis in WW2.
What's certain is we'll never fight the Chinese.

In the short term, it could involve an alliance between Iran and some other middle-eastern countries against the US and its allies.
In the more distant future, I think it could involve China who has been quietly building up their military over the last 20 years or so.

If it's an actual world war, it would truly be the War To End All Wars (a label placed on what turned out to be WWI). You would think it would be US as one of the opponents

The world against the United States!
Have you not been paying attention that the world collectively hates us now!
We better learn to make some freinds, and learn to quit bullying the smaller countries of the world.
