5 Possible challengers for new WWE Champion Drew McIntyre's title

#2 Seth Rollins

Could Seth Rollins defeat Drew McIntyre to become WWE Champion?

While some candidates in this list seem unlikely or improbable while nonetheless fascinating, there's probably no more straightforward or a better fit for Drew McIntyre's WWE title than the Monday Night Messiah, Seth Rollins.

In terms of styles, the match would be perfect. Rollins would be there, or thereabouts in the argument for WWE's best in-ring performer of the last few years. There would, therefore, be no worries as to whether or not he could go toe-to-toe with McIntyre as he bids to solidify his hold on his newly-won WWE title.

Better than that, though, the timing is just about perfect. Having finished up his rivalry with Kevin Owens at WrestleMania 36 on the losing side after being beaten by the Canadian, Rollins needs a clean break and to get into something new.

What's more, what better place for the Monday Night Messiah than at the top of the mountain on RAW and in WWE as a whole as its Champion? It would give him even more reason and opportunity to preach about his powers and strength of leadership if he stood in the middle of the ring with the gold draped around his shoulder.

Whatever does come McIntyre's way, Rollins will likely be involved sooner rather than later.
