From the WWE championship to the Universal Championship, every title is going to be defended on this pay-per-view but, there are some titles that need a new champion.

In this article, we are going to take a look at three title changes that should happen at SummerSlam.


#3 Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Roman Reigns - Universal Championship Match

There is no secret that Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns is going to be the main event of SummerSlam.

But, they both have already battled each other at the WrestleMania as well as in the Greatest Royal Rumble too. Both of the time, Lesnar walked about victorious with the Universal Championship.

Recently, Lesnar challenged current UFC Heavyweight and Lightweight Champion Daniel Cormier at UFC 226.

It's confirmed that Lesnar is going to leave the WWE soon for UFC, but he cannot fight in the octagon before January of 2019, because of the ban made against him by USADA.

Fans want a new Universal champion, but they also don't want to see Roman Reigns as the champion.

After turning on his own advocate Paul Heyman, Lesnar gave us a huge hint that something shocking could happen during their match.

There are rumors buzzing around that Heyman could turn on his client, Lesnar at SummerSlam to help Reigns defeat the current champion.

In this way, the Big Dog will become the new Universal champion, a heel as well as the new client of Heyman too.

They both can do many wonders if they work together. Then, Strowman or Owens could cash in the Money In The Bank contract on him too.

#2 Alexa Bliss (c) vs. Ronda Rousey - Raw women's championship

Rousey has been impressive since making her debut at WrestleMania 34

Last week we saw Ronda Rousey's debut match against Alicia Fox on Monday Night Raw.

Alexa Bliss was also present on the ringside and she also tried to interfere in the match, but Natalya stopped her and then Bliss attacked and pushed her to the turnbuckle.

After the match was won by Rousey, all of a sudden, Alexa entered into the ring to attack Ronda Rousey from behind but she got a Judo Throw instead from the UFC champion.

Later Ronda warned her by saying that she is going to win the Raw Women's Title at SummerSlam.

Considering her booking, right now, it seems like Ronda Rousey is going to win her first main roster title at the SummerSlam. There is no doubt that she is one of the most talented women's wrestlers in the WWE right now and this is why she deserves to win the title.

#1 AJ Styles (c) vs. Samoa Joe - WWE championship match

Could AJ Styles lose his title to Joe?

AJ Styles won the WWE Championship last year on November 7th after defeating 'The Modern Day Maharaja' Jinder Mahal on an episode of SmackDown Live.

Before losing the championship Jinder Mahal was scheduled to face Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series but the WWE change their plans and booked Styles vs Lesnar instead.

Even though Styles lost his match at Survivor Series, but still, he gave a tremendous performance that night.

Currently, he is set to face Samoa Joe at the Biggest Party of Summer. There is no doubt that Joe is one of the best heel wrestlers in the WWE but he needs one more thing to establish himself as the top heel of the company and that is the WWE Championship.

Samoa Joe is very good in the ring as well as on the microphone too. He deserves to win the title sooner rather than later.

He can later defend his title against the likes of Randy Orton, Shinsuke Nakamura, AJ Styles, Rusev and many more.
