Yes, you guessed it right. This list is not complete without The Big Dog, Roman Reigns.

The former muscle of The Shield has been off the Universal Title picture ever since he had to relinquish it abruptly due to his medical predicament last year. Nonetheless, The Big Dog is back in full force has a considerable amount of momentum behind his back. Thus, it might be the right time to launch him the title picture against Brock Lesnar after SummerSlam 2019.

Furthermore, given Vince McMahon's affinity towards Roman, the former Universal Champion dethroning Lesnar in the near future seems to be on the cards.

Expect WWE to involve a Rollins angle by portraying Reigns fighting to finish off what his brother started. While this would be WWE's way of leaving no stones unturned to get over Reigns (if he is not already) by establishing an emotional connection between his character and the masses, it would be interesting to see whether this paves a way for a triple threat bout between Rollins vs Lesnar vs Reigns for the future.
