Big E competing for the Universal Championship at WrestleMania 37: 5 steps to make that happen

#3 Randy Orton defeats Braun Strowman for the Universal Championship

At SummerSlam, Braun Strowman should defeat The Fiend to retain the Universal Championship. The feud with Bray Wyatt has been a good way to keep the intrigue for the title and help Strowman in his newly-minted main event role following his win against Goldberg at WrestleMania 36. This will also have a role in Big E competing for the title as well.

This feud also has enough steam to resume in September, with an interesting twist to it. At the September pay-per-view, Strowman should run the gauntlet throughout the event, having to face the three faces of Wyatt — Firefly Funhouse, Wyatt Family, and The Fiend. Strowman wins all three matches, further elevating his status as a main event babyface.

On the day of the SmackDown draft, Strowman should main event the show, defending the Universal Championship. At the end of winning the match, Orton should be dressed in a black hood, execute an RKO out of nowhere, which would set up a match between the two at Survivor Series. Orton wins the match at Survivor Series due to interference by The Fiend, making him Universal Champion.
