3 possible opponents for Roman Reigns after WrestleMania 35

It seems likely that former WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns will end up going one on one with Drew McIntyre at the upcoming WrestleMania 35 show, where he'll presumably defeat Scotsman and then move on to a Universal Championship program with either Seth Rollins or Brock Lesnar.

Remember, Roman Reigns had to relinquish the Universal Championship shortly after winning it due to being diagnosed with leukaemia. But he's back now, and he's at 100 per cent, which means that it's only a matter of time before he ends up challenging for the title that he never lost.

There aren't a ton of possible match-ups for Reigns after WWE's biggest show of the year, but that might change after the company's annual Superstar Shakeup on April 15.

So, the three potential opponents are a combination of Raw superstars, and SmackDown Live stars who could be moving over to the red brand after WrestleMania 35.

#3 Brock Lesnar

Even though the WWE fans might not be too high on a potential program between Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns, the company might just go ahead with it, especially if Lesnar successfully defends the Universal Championship against Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 35.

Last year at the Greatest Royal Rumble show, Lesnar defeated Reigns in a cage match, and the finish was quite controversial. But this time around, WWE would likely have Reigns defeat Lesnar in Saudi Arabia, thus reclaiming the championship that he never lost.

It's not crazy to expect that Lesnar will be a part of WWE's next show in Saudi Arabia on May 3, as he's been paid a ton of money to be a part of the previous two shows in the country. If WWE is to do this match, it would be smart to do it at their next Saudi show simply because that might be the only place where the fans don't turn on the match.

#2 AJ Styles

Prior to WWE deciding to go back to the brand split, AJ Styles had an incredible WWE World Heavyweight Championship program with Roman Reigns. In fact, you could make the argument that Styles has been Reigns' best opponent to date.

It's been a few years since Reigns and Styles have been in the ring with each other, and on top of that, "The Phenomenal One" has been on SmackDown Live for the majority of his WWE run, so it's time to have him switch brands.

It's likely that Styles' last major match as a part of SmackDown Live will be against Randy Orton at WrestleMania 35, and after he presumably beats the "Viper," he'll move on over to Monday Night Raw and feud with Roman Reigns, as the two have incredible chemistry in the ring.

Reigns might end up being booed in the feud, however, the match quality would be top notch, so it'd be worth it.

#1 Sami Zayn

It's quite possible that Sami Zayn will make his return either before or right after WrestleMania 35. If you ask me, he'll return during the Superstar Shakeup, where he'll be drafted to the Raw brand.

When he left due to an injury, Zayn was one of the top heels on the roster, and I'd expect him to keep that role when he returns. Sure, he'll get a great reaction on the first night, but after that, he should continue to be a heel, as it fits him a lot better.

Obviously, Zayn is extremely talented, and he's more than capable of having great matches with just about anyone. He'd do the same with Roman Reigns.

It's also possible that both Roman Reigns and Sami Zayn take part in this year's Money in the Bank ladder match, which will take place on May 19. If that ends up being the case, then I expect Reigns to win that match.
