#3 Lack of top babyfaces on the SmackDown roster

The lack of top babyfaces has been a major issue for the roster of Friday Night SmackDown. Apart from Roman Reigns, Daniel Bryan, and Braun Strowman, there's hardly any believable challenger to go up against The Fiend at WrestleMania 36.

While we have already seen Daniel Bryan unsuccessfully attempt to dethrone The Fiend on multiple occasions previously, Strowman, on the other hand, is busy with his feuds as the Intercontinental Champion.

That leaves the Big Dog, who was previously rumored to be the opponent for Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania this year. But as per the recent rumors, the plans have changed and WWE is no longer going ahead with the planned Wyatt vs Reigns match. If that is the case indeed, who challenges The Fiend then?

Well, who better than arguably one of the biggest babyfaces in the company's history, the face that (used to?) runs the place, John Cena! With Cena being absent from WWE programming for a long time, fans are sure to welcome him with open arms and this might be a perfect opportunity to set up this match.
