#2 Big E could set his eyes on the Universal Championship now

A few months ago, Big E was a fan-favorite to dethrone Roman Reigns as the Universal Champion. Instead, he cashed in his Money in the Bank contract on Bobby Lashley and won the WWE Championship. At WWE Day 1, his title reign came to an end at the hands of Brock Lesnar. The question now is, what is next for Big E?

Well, we are less than a month away from WWE Royal Rumble 2022. With him no longer holding the WWE title, Big E will be a favorite to win the match. If that happens, we might see him set his eyes on the Universal Championship this time. If Roman Reigns is the biggest heel in WWE right now, Big E is the biggest babyface. A feud between the two is surely going to be of epic proportions.

#1 Could we see Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar in a champion vs. champion match?

Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar were looking set to have a long feud, possibly leading to a WrestleMania 38 match. However, things have suddenly changed with Brock Lesnar winning the WWE Championship at Day 1.

The most likely answer at this point is that WWE will hold this feud off for a later date. However, the build-up to Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar was so good that fans would be slightly disappointed if WWE just abruptly shuts it off.

What happens to Paul Heyman now? What if WWE still goes ahead with this feud but further raises the stakes and makes it a "champion vs. champion" match at WrestleMania 38? While this could rob some other stars of a main event spotlight, it's still a possibility that can't be ignored.
