5 Feuds for Seth Rollins upon his return to WWE

#2. Seth Rollins vs. Big E could be a #1 contender's feud

Big E and Seth Rollins need to run it back from their NXT days

Seth Rollins and Big E are arguably among two of SmackDown's biggest singles Superstars at the moment. While Rollins is much more experienced of the two, Big E is expected to be a breakout star in 2021. However, if WWE plays their cards right, they could have two monumental world title worthy contenders at the same time in their ranks.

Seth Rollins is a former multiple-time WWE World Champion and given Roman Reigns' dominance on the blue brand, it is almost expected of the former to get involved in the Universal Title picture at some point. While there shouldn't be a question of turning Reigns babyface once again, WWE could consider reversing Rollins' role and then have him challenge his former Shield brethren.

Interestingly enough, Big E is also destined to be the next big babyface on SmackDown. After all, there is a vital reason why WWE decided to break-up The New Day in favor of pushing Big E. Hence, a feud between Seth Rollins and Big E should be the title contender decider. The Messiah doesn't necessarily need to be a face in this feud and WWE could instead save the Rollins-Roman feud for later.
