#1. Seth Rollins enters the Universal Title picture on SmackDown

Seth Rollins and Cesaro's feud on SmackDown has increased in intensity

The Universal Title picture on SmackDown seems to be a bit confusing. While the speculation was that Jimmy Uso would challenge for the Championship at Hell in a Cell, Cesaro was the first to appeal.

He challenged Roman Reigns last week to a Universal Championship rematch at Hell in a Cell 2021, but Seth Rollins abruptly cut him off and launched another vicious assault. Rollins can't seem to get over the humiliation that Cesaro inflicted upon him recently, and with each passing week, the feud gets more intense.

A top AEW star just called one of his colleagues 'spoiled' and 'narcissistic' HERE.

This rivalry might pour onto the Universal Championship, with a chance of the Hell in a Cell main event becoming a Triple Threat. Even last year, Seth Rollins challenged for the WWE Championship immediately after losing at WrestleMania 36.

Even still, it would be a bit surprising to see him directly enter after being on the losing end for the last couple of months on SmackDown. Will he weasel his way into a title shot?
