Seth Rollins emerged victorious at Stomping Grounds when he went against Baron Corbin for the WWE Universal Championship. At a PPV named similar to his finisher, Rollins stomped his way to victory after Becky Lynch attacked the special guest referee Lacey Evans.

Seth Rollins still has the danger of Brock Lesnar looming large, but when Brock Lesnar plans to cash-in is still a mystery.

A plethora of top level heels are waiting for Seth Rollins on RAW as well as Smackdown, should he choose to use the Wild Card Rule. Fans and critics alike have reacted negatively to Corbin receiving multiple opportunities for the Universal Championship.

Seth Rollins will defend the Universal Championship in a mixed tag team match against Corbin and Lacey Evans, with Becky Lynch's RAW Women's Championship on the line as well.

We look at five possible superstars who Seth Rollins must face during his stint as the Universal Champion.


#5 Drew McIntyre

When Seth Rollins first won the Universal Championship in April, Drew McIntyre was considered by many as the next challenger for the top championship on RAW. However, McIntyre continued his rivalry with Roman Reigns and aligned himself with the Best in the World, Shane McMahon.

Drew McIntyre is one of the most complete superstars in WWE today. A tall, charismatic superstar who can cut brilliant promos and wrestle high quality matches is something Vince McMahon and WWE creative can easily get behind.

McIntyre was labeled as the Chosen One during his first stint with WWE back in 2010, and he must be elevated to the main event as soon as possible.

Mcintyre and Rollins have produced great encounters in the past and with both the superstars having played out some high-voltage matches in the recent past, this could be a mouth-watering clash.

#4 Sami Zayn

Sami Zayn has stayed on the main roster for close to four years now, but has never been able to capture a single championship.

Sami Zayn is one of the finest wrestlers that WWE have on their payroll, and Zayn's new found attitude makes him a much more compelling sight. Sami Zayn and Seth Rollins will be an instant classic encounter for the WWE Universal Championship.

Zayn deserves a shot at a major championship sooner rather than later, and WWE must ensure that Zayn is next in line for Rollins. Given the fact that he and Seth Rollins are probably the top two superstars on the roster when it comes to pure wrestling abilities, their match would be a five star treat.

#3 Bobby Lashley

Yet another superstar who started off bright in WWE but failed to stay in the limelight for a long time, Bobby Lashley has seemingly become a afterthought in WWE.

When Lashley first debuted on RAW, he had immense potential and many believed him to be the top guy for the next few years. However, Lashley has since then cooled down and has failed to live up to the hype.

Lashley has lost his mojo after Lio Rush disappeared from WWE programming. He had tremendous charisma back in TNA Impact, and those confidence levels are yet to be seen on WWE television.

A feud with Seth Rollins could help Lashley get back on his feet and make himself relevant once again.

Lashley remains the only superstar to have beaten Roman Reigns clean in the last twelve months and certainly deserves better than he is getting right now.

#2 Andrade

Although the Wild Card rule is effectively killing the brand split, there are certain occasions on which it actually helps the talent to get opportunities which they wouldn't get on their brand.

Bayley defended her SmackDown Women's Championship against Alexa Bliss, who used the Wild Card Rule to show up on Smackdown and challenge for a blue brand belt.

As per several reports, WWE is looking to push Andrade to the top and make him one of the bigger superstars on the level of Rey Mysterio and Eddie Guerrero. This is a clear indication that Andrade could be line for a championship run soon.

Andrade with Zelina Vega and Rollins with Becky Lynch could be an interesting rivalry and help WWE keep the momentum of Rollins-Lynch. Andrade is supremely talented inside the ring and with Vega as his excellent mouthpiece, Rollins-Andrade could result in an intriguing encounter.

#1 Samoa Joe

Samoa Joe should honestly be a no-brainer for the role of Seth Rollins' challenger. Samoe Joe debuted in WWE in 2017, attacking Seth Rollins. He had a major feud with Shield towards the end of 2017, after which he got injured.

Samoa Joe is too talented to be kept in the midcard, and he is probably the best option to face off against Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship.

Joe is the best superstar in WWE when it comes to mic skills, and his verbal destruction makes for excellent television every time he comes on the screen. He spent his summer of 2017 fighting for the Universal Championship against Brock Lesnar, summer of 2018 against WWE Champion AJ Styles, and should compete against Seth Rollins this summer.

A Samoa Joe-Seth Rollins feud is big money and WWE must realize it sooner rather later!
