#4 WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns

Like Edge, WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns has been delivering excellent matches in almost every pay-per-view appearance.

Reigns and Shibata will make a brilliant combination. The bout could feature an interference from The Usos, but Shibata is now used to such things.

Shibata and Reigns could put out a highly physical match, with Paul Heyman providing his iconic shocked expression at every heavily damaging move executed on "The Head Of The Table."


#3 Former WWE NXT Tag Team Champion Kyle O'Reilly

The main roster is not the only spot Shibata can find opponents at. Like the legendary Jushin Thunder Liger, he may turn his attention towards NXT.

In NXT, there is no better opponent for Katsuyori Shibata than the former Undisputed Era member Kyle O'Reilly. They have a history together, with both of their one-on-one encounters to date being hard-hitting classics.

They are 1-1 at the moment, and a final match may recall or even exceed the excellence of their previous encounters, with the duo taking as much punishment as is humanly possible.
