I went back and forth with this pick, but when it was all said and done, I feel strongly about the potential that lies within The Architect. Seth Rollins has had a heck of a roller coaster run since the demise of The Shield.
However, he's always managed to come out on top. When Rollins cashed in his Money In The Bank contract and won the Championship at Wrestlemania, it was an amazing moment, which sent the show off the air on a very high note.

However, his title reign that followed, left much to be desired. Rollins is a great heel, that wasn't the problem. The issue was with The Authority making the Champ appear weak.
Since returning from injury, Seth has been on fire. His current babyface run has caused Rollins to gain a lot of momentum, as well as a tonne of fanfare. The work Rollins is putting in now is serving as proof that if the company were to come down onto his shoulders, he would be well prepared to carry that load.

He may not be the first pick by some, but in this unique type of situation, you take the best you got and as of right now, Seth Rollins may very well be the best man for the job.

Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
