5 Superstars WWE should push if Seth Rollins loses the Universal Championship

With a title reign that hasn't captivated the audience's attention, WWE has now booked another rematch for the Universal Championship between Seth Rollins and The Fiend, Bray Wyatt.

Bray Wyatt's sadistic demeanour might still be garnering rave reactions, but the Fiend's ascension to the top of the heap remains a doubt after the controversial Hell In A Cell finish.

Even though there might be a long-term plan behind all this, the current Universal Champion Seth Rollins has become a subject of constant debate on multiple platforms.

Legions in the WWE Universe have been disappointed with Rollins' reign as the top guy of the company and are expecting him to drop Monday Night Raw's most coveted prize to the Fiend at this October's Crown Jewel event.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

Whether our prophecy of seeing Wyatt rule the roost as the Universal Champion are fulfilled or not, Seth Rollins' reign as the Universal Champion is bound to end sooner rather than later.

With the world of professional wrestling thriving on competition from all sides, these are the 5 biggest superstars WWE should push if Seth Rollins loses the Universal Championship.

#1 Kevin Owens

Arguably one of the most talented performers to ever grace the squared circle, Kevin Owens' transition back to Monday Nights could make him a big box-office performer once again.

With The Architect struggling to continue his run as a top babyface, having Owens replace him as the main guy on the flagship show could refresh things under Paul Heyman's radar.

Assuming that The Fiend wins the Universal Championship at Crown Jewel, a feud between Bray Wyatt and Kevin Owens could be an absolute gamechanger for the Red Brand.

Not only will we get to witness a never seen before feud on television, but will also witness Owens' ascension as the ultimate protagonist as he fights The Fiend.

#2 Buddy Murphy

With SmackDown Live possessing some of the top-tier talents in the industry today, Paul Heyman's Monday Night RAW will have to rely upon a more athletic pool of Superstars who are yet to claim their fame in Vince's billion dollar company.

Buddy Murphy is one of them. The former Cruiserweight Champion is everything that entices the hardcore wrestling fans and a little seriousness with his creative direction could take him places.

The talented Australian has already proved that he can hang with the best when he churned out an absolute classic with The Big Dog, Roman Reigns.

Since the Red Brand needs a legitimate restart, ascending a guy like Buddy Murphy could pay huge dividends in the future.

Imagine him going against the likes of AJ Styles and Seth Rollins. If the company decides to test him as a main-event guy, a feud with the Fiend could be beyond phenomenal.

#3 Andrade

Another WWE Superstar who could move up the ranks after joining Monday Night Raw is the talented, third-generation luchador, Andrade.

El Idolo possesses all the credibility in the world that can take him to a different level of stratosphere, but has suffered the wrath of stale creative booking.

However, the former NXT Champion's return to the flagship show has been promising, as Andrade made a massive statement of intent by outshining the ever-resilient, Ali.

With WWE likely to head into a new direction, Paul Heyman's advocacy of undeniable athleticism could see Andrade fight for the Universal Championship sooner rather than later.

Whilst him standing up against the Fiend might not be the most obvious direction, Andrade's ability of telling fast-paced stories between the ropes could astonish the Fiend as well as the WWE Universe.

The man is unbelievably talented and with RAW seemingly becoming the new land of opportunity, it's about time the Mexican gets the respect he rightfully deserves.

#4 Ricochet

If the rumors of Paul Heyman being very high on Ricochet are anything to take into account, then the former NXT North American Champion could be on his way to greatness on Monday Night RAW.

Despite the fact that his initial run has weakened his credibility as a top-tier performer, building him up from the scratch could prove beneficial for Heyman's Red Brand.

His athletic prowess gravitates the right amount of attention and if put against an unforgiving antagonist like The Fiend, we could see a side of Ricochet we have never seen before.

With WWE wanting to promote him as the Resident Superhero, a feud with The Fiend could very well take Monday Night RAW by storm.

Currently lost in the shuffle, a slow ascension to the top of the heap could make him a household name and bring an element of rejuvenation to Monday Night RAW.

#5 Aleister Black

Even though Aleister Black may not be the typical WWE prototype, the former NXT Superstar has what it takes to make a name for himself on the main roster.

Be it his intent of craving competition or his dark presence, the former NXT Champion could prove to be a big box-office player under Paul Heyman's supervision.

Assuming that The Architect drops the title to The Fiend at Crown Jewel, a feud between Aleister Black and Bray Wyatt would be an absolute spine-chiller.

The Dutch Destroyer is an incredibly versatile performer and his undefeated streak could make for some interesting television, as he goes against the former Eater of Worlds.

With Black and Wyatt both relishing the darkness within their souls, a feud for Monday Night RAW's most coveted possession in the Universal Championship could be unpredictable.
