#3 Give Roman Reigns the Universal Championship

Immediately upon returning at SummerSlam, Roman Reigns made his intentions very clear. He is going after the Universal Championship, and WWE wasted no time in announcing a triple threat match for the title at Payback. Reigns will face 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt and Braun Strowman, in what will likely headline this Sunday's pay-per-view.

And expect The Big Dog to pick up right where he left off. He was supposed to win the Universal Title at WrestleMania, so WWE could put it right back on him. Reigns is a huge star and is the correct man to hold SmackDown's world title, especially with the new edge he has to him.

Unfortunately, none of his four WWE or Universal Title reigns have gone beyond 100 days. This will likely change in a few months, as they should build the main event scene around him. Reigns is great in the ring, with the ability to bring other Superstars up to his level.

As long as WWE allows him to elevate his peers who challenge him, Roman Reigns will be a successful Universal Champion.
