The current WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman are the best things on WWE TV at the moment. Reigns' new-found aggressive attitude, under the counsel of Heyman, has made for intriguing story-lines. Could one with Keith Lee be in the works?

Reigns' rivalry with Jey Uso has explicitly highlighted the character shift he has undergone. However, it is unlikely that his reign of terror over the SmackDown roster will end anytime soon. That's where Keith Lee comes into play. The future looks bright for Lee, and he may be in line for a World title shot down the line.

On RAW, he has had a few opportunities to challenge for Drew McIntyre's WWE Championship, but the champion's rivalry with Randy Orton has prevented a full-fledged feud between Lee and McIntyre. On SmackDown, however, Lee would have a clear-cut path to the Universal Championship, as the title picture is less crowded and more fluid.

Keith Lee and has a bone to pick with Roman Reigns, and the two have also expressed a desire to battle each other in the ring. After the two went back and forth in the classic cross-branded elimination match at Survivor Series, they shook hands, but Lee wouldn't have forgotten the loss. A dream match between Lee and Reigns would be a magnificent sight to behold.
