The excitement is sky-high as we are just ten days away from the biggest wrestling carnival of the year. The match-card is looking stupendous, and Vince McMahon's billion dollar company is giving final touch in all storylines. Considering only one week is left for the Show of Shows, several unforeseen surprises could take place in the final week.
Every title will be on the line at the Grandest Stage of Them All. The Universal Champion Brock Lesnar will defend the most coveted prize of the red brand as he will take on Seth Rollins. Following a victory at the men's Royal Rumble match, the Architect earned the right to challenge the Beast Incarnate.
Seth Rollins has had an impressive career in WWE. In fact, he is a Grand Slam Champion, and he has won all the active titles of WWE, but he has not managed to win the Universal Title. Hence, he will be aiming to slay the Beast at Metlife Stadium.
Since Rollins is a full-time superstar, the fans will be eager to see him as the Universal Champion. He can defend the belt on a regular basis unlike Brock Lesnar, who is a part-timer. Here we discuss three opponents for Seth Rollins after WrestleMania if he grabs the most coveted prize of RAW in New Jersey.
#3 Finn Balor
Finn Balor had a remarkable start of the year as he got the Universal Title shot in January. Surprisingly, Balor went toe-to-toe with the Beast Incarnate, but Lesnar defeated him. Subsequently, Balor became the Intercontinental Champion, but he lost the belt. He will be facing the current Intercontinental Champion Bobby Lashley at the Show of Shows.
Finn Balor was the first-ever Universal Champion, and he could be set for another run after WrestleMania. Interestingly, Balor became the first ever Universal Champion after defeating Seth Rollins. However, the feud could not extend in 2016 as Balor got injured in that bout. The two men can produce an astounding rivalry this year if they compete for the ultimate prize of the RAW.
#2 Drew McIntyre
Drew McIntyre is currently flying high in WWE as he will be fighting Roman Reigns at the Grandest Stage of Them All. McIntyre has been the focal point of RAW in the last few weeks. The Scottish Psychopath defeated two members of the Shield. Interestingly, Seth Rollins was one of two members of the Hounds of Justice. Though there was a distraction from Brock Lesnar, McIntyre managed to pin Rollins.
There is no denying that Vince McMahon's billion dollar company is building McIntyre as the future Universal Champion. The Scottish Psychopath has become a dominant superstar of the red brand, and he is undoubtedly the biggest heel of the flagship show. With his current momentum, he has a bright possibility to overpower Roman Reigns at the Showcase of Immortals.
Rollins and McIntyre are not new rivals as they locked horns in the past. Though the two men had some bouts in the past, they never had a lengthy feud.
#1 AJ Styles
AJ Styles could be a dream opponent for Seth Rollins, and they have the potential to produce one of the best feuds in recent memory. Though Styles is currently part of Smackdown Live, there is a possibility to switch brands in the Superstar Shake-up.
Considering Styles has faced most of the superstars of the blue brand, we might see the Phenomenal One on the RAW this year. Moreover, Styles has been part of the blue brand since the inception of the brand split.
Styles will fight Randy Orton at Showcase of Immortals where the two men will compete to prove their supremacy. The Phenomenal One held the WWE Title twice on Smackdown Live, and his last run was the eighth longest World Title reign in recent history. Without a shadow of a doubt, he could be a deserving candidate to be the Universal Title challenger.
There is no denying that Styles and Rollins are spectacular performers in the squared circle. Besides the dexterity in the ring, they also have impressive mic skills. It could be a dream feud to headline Summerslam this year.
