5 possible Bronson Reed WWE main roster opponents

#4 WWE United States Champion Sheamus

Sheamus is the current WWE United States Champion on Monday Night RAW

WWE United States Champion Sheamus is one of the most experienced WWE Superstars currently on the Monday Night RAW roster.

Sheamus is also in the middle of his third reign as United States Champion. The Celtic Warrior defeated former United States Champion Riddle during WrestleMania 37 Night One to capture the championship for the third time.

Ironically, Sheamus has yet to officially defend his championship since winning it at WrestleMania 37. He has largely been engaged in a feud with Humberto Carrillo and Ricochet on Monday Night RAW in recent months, offering up non-title open challenges.

However, Sheamus is not currently cleared to wrestle. Due to a wayward reverse elbow from Humberto Carrillo several weeks ago, Sheamus sustained a broken nose. The Irish star underwent surgery to fix the broken nose, but was not forced to vacate the championship.

Should former NXT Superstar Bronson Reed be called up to Monday Night RAW, perhaps Sheamus would be the perfect opponent.

Once Sheamus has been medically cleared to compete, he could once again offer up an open challenge. Except this time, the open challenge is for the United States Championship. This could lead to Bronson Reed accepting the challenge and winning the United States Championship in his first ever match on Monday Night RAW.

While that may be an unlikely scenario, it would certainly be an immediate way to firmly place Bronson Reed on the red brand map.
