The King Slayer has been away from the primary championship for far too long now, as he has not even challenged for the Universal Championship since the fag end of 2016. For the last one year, he has been the prime performer on Monday Night Raw, and has consistently delivered in the ring.

Seth Rollins is touted by many to be the superstar to take the spot of Roman Reigns on the main event scene of Raw, and fulfill the promise made by his Shield brother who vowed to end the part time reign of The Beast Incarnate earlier this year, before his unfortunate hiatus.

Seth Rollins is considered a strong favourite to win the 2019 Royal Rumble match, as at time of writing.

Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar clearly have some unfinished business in the ring, as their previous WWE title match at WWE Battleground PPV in 2015 ended abruptly due to interference from The Deadman who looked to exact some revenge for the loss of his iconic streak.

Seth Rollins played the role of a heel during all of their previous encounters, but the dynamics have changed this time around, as he is now a red-hot crowd favourite, so the WWE has a golden opportunity to bury the failures of recent years by booking a fan favourite as winner at the main event of The Show of Immortals.

Brock Lesnar's tendency in recent years to have classic encounters with medium sized wrestlers also makes Seth Rollins the ideal challenger for him at the grandest stage of them all, as they both can combine to produce a marvelous main event, and send the fans home satisfied (if Seth Rollins is booked to win) after WrestleMania, which has not been the case for the last few years.
