-#1 To unify the WWE & Universal titles at Survivor Series
WWE’s second brand extension came into effect in 2016, and the company introduced the Universal Championship as the red brand’s top singles title.
The brand split is slowly losing its importance after the introduction of the Wild Card rule. But there could be a reason WWE is allowing this to happen.
With Raw & SmackDown to air on different networks from this October, WWE will look to have all their superstars appear on both shows.
WWE was already teasing the end of the brand split with Becky Lynch's double title win at WrestleMania, and Kofi Kingston challenging Seth Rollins for a title vs. title match on the next night on Raw.
If Roman Reigns wins the WWE Championship and Seth Rollins holds on to the Universal Championship, we could see them clash to unify the titles at Survivor Series.
