5 Things WWE must do after Super ShowDown

WWE put on a hell of a spectacle at Super Showdown this past Friday and while the event did a lot to get the WWE Universe excited about the future, it also left the company with a lot of things they must do going forward. Of course, this is the issue with every pay per view since now each respective storyline must move forward, but it seems like there's a lot more work to do than usual after Friday's show in Saudi Arabia.

Now, that's not a bad thing, especially after blockbuster matches like Finn Balor versus Andrade, Randy Orton versus Triple H and an absolute thriller between Seth Rollins and Baron Corbin, but now WWE must decide what's next. Unfortunately for the company, however, they must do so when the critique of the product is at an all-time high.

With that being said, and Super ShowDown now in the books, here are five things WWE must do after the star-studded event. As always, let us know your thoughts in the comments below and be sure to tell us what you think WWE needs to do following their big show in Saudi Arabia.

#5 Give Roman Reigns a big win

Roman Reigns needs a big win after super showdown.

Roman Reigns came up short against Shane McMahon at Super ShowDown and although a lot of that had to do with a last-second Claymore from Drew McIntyre with the referee's back turned, Reigns still needs to get his heat back after taking a loss like that. In fact, if WWE doesn't do anything about Reigns' humiliating loss, it could end up coming back to bite them and ruining any progress they made with Reigns.

With that in mind, Reigns needs a big win and a decisive one at that. Whether that comes at Stomping Grounds in his match against Drew McIntyre or in the weeks leading up to the pay per view, it remains to be seen, but the company can't treat their top star like this. Beyond that, they can't treat a star that is this polarizing and this critiqued by fans like this.

In the end, Reigns needs a statement victory and he needs one fast. Maybe WWE will give it to him on SmackDown Live by having him destroy McMahon in a rematch or maybe he gets his hands on McIntyre a bit earlier and lays him out cold. Either way, a big win is needed for the Big Dog if he is going to be taken seriously going forward.

#4 Follow through on Lars Sullivan

What is WWE doing with Lars Sullivan?

WWE had The Lucha House party get disqualified during their three on one handicap match against Lars Sullivan and while The Freak got his momentum back by laying all three out in a post-match beatdown, it wasn't enough to really leave an impact. In fact, it felt like a misstep or a slow down in what WWE originally wanted to do with the Superstar.

Beyond that, winning by disqualification doesn't really bode well for Sullivan's future, which is exactly why WWE needs to make a big statement with him. Whether that happens by inserting him into a title picture, letting him lay waste to top superstars or even by doing something even more drastic remains to be seen, but they need to do something.

If not, WWE risks giving up on yet another big man, which is sad, considering what has already happened with stars like Bobby Lashley and Bruan Strowman. Finally, its yet another example of WWE dropping the ball on a former NXT talent and that's a major reason why WWE needs Sullivan to be a success.

#3 Get Bray Wyatt back in the ring

Will Bray Wyatt's new gimmick ever make its way into the ring?

No matter how great Firefly Funhouse is, and it has absolutely been a healthy dose of nightmare fuel so far, none of it matters if the company can't find a way to transition the character into the ring. One would think WWE already has this accomplished with his fiend character coming to light over the last few weeks, but the company still seems unwilling to officially pull the trigger.

Maybe its due to the fact that unlike in a taped segment, WWE won't have as much control over how the character is perceived, or maybe it's due to the company having trouble figuring out how to play with the elements in a live setting, but either way, they haven't yet. Unfortunately for the company, they are running out of time to do so.

In the end, Bray Wyatt's Firefly Funhouse segment is money in its purest form. Its something that gets talked about week after week and its hidden messages is enough to send the WWE Universe scouring the internet. Either way, its time to take the gimmick to the next level or risk it dying a premature death.

#2 Reestablish the Women's Tag Team titles

WWE needs to reinvigorate the women's tag team division!

WWE was kind of forced to hit the brakes on the women's division due to the Super Showdown pay per view, but now that it's over, the company has some work to do in order to rebuild the division. Beyond that, they have a lot of work to do in order to reinsert the Women's Tag Team titles back into relevance as well.

Of course, that's not going to be the easiest thing to do, especially with WWE still reeling after taking the titles off of Bayley and Sasha Banks at WrestleMania 35, but that doesn't mean the division is unsalvagable. In fact, all WWE really has to do is take the belts off The IIconics and put it on a young babyface team they could build upon.

With that in mind, Asuka and Kairi Sane seem like the best options here, but it would also be interesting to see Bayley and Ember Moon team up and then have Moon betray Bayley when the time is right. If nothing else, that will at least give the division the restart it needs, put a popular duo together and get belts dissociated with the comedy gimmick that is The IIconics.

#1 Take the Universal title off Seth Rollins

Seth Rollins can't be Universal champion for much longer.

Believe it or not, it is finally time to bring Seth Rollins' time as Universal Champion to an end. Not only is that evident by the fact that Baron Corbin beating Rollins for the big red belt would surely establish him as the biggest heel in WWE right now, but it also opens up the opportunity for Rollins to do other things.

Think about it! Rollins is a workhorse and also someone that has already been to the top of the mountain several times throughout his career. With that in mind, it's obvious to see that WWE needs to do the right thing and use Rollins' star power to put the belt on Baron Corbin at the upcoming Stomping Grounds pay per view.

At least that way, Corbin finally gets the run he has deserved since winning the Money in the Bank briefcase a few years back and also creates an opportunity for WWE to put an unestablished babyface in the role of taking Corbin down. Whoever that happens to be is up to debate, but its virtually guaranteed that the title is a waste on Rollins for too much longer.
