So, from the way that the pieces have lined up at this point, it is clear that Seth Rollins will engage in a battle with Kevin Owens up next. Owens was the center of attention at WWE Starrcade when he pretty much carried the whole WWE Network Special with more than one segment. But he is not the only babyface who can replace Seth Rollins in the top spot, in my personal opinion, truth be told.
I honestly think that Rusev has enough equity at this point to be one of the top babyfaces on the Red Brand. If he were to go up against Brock Lesnar at some point in the future, I would think that he has a fighting chance at least. And to be quite honest, Rey Mysterio is a beloved babyface too, who can honestly take Seth Rollins on, when the opportunity presents itself.
