Cody Rhodes successfully defended his Undisputed WWE Championship against Solo Sikoa in a brutal Bloodline Rules Match at SummerSlam last week. However, The American Nightmare has little time to rest.

His next title defense is just around the corner at the upcoming Premium Live Event, Bash in Berlin. During the latest episode of Friday Night SmackDown, Rhodes offered a title shot to his friend Kevin Owens, setting the stage for a high-stakes match.

Here are four predictions for the next four Undisputed WWE Champions after Cody Rhodes.


#4. Randy Orton

Randy Orton is set to challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship at Bash in Berlin later this month. While you can never count out The Viper, the way this storyline is building suggests that the match might serve as a distraction from the main objective - a feud between Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes.

Orton may soon turn on his friend and former Legacy stablemate Cody Rhodes to challenge for the Undisputed WWE Championship. Fans have been clamoring for this feud for some time, and it might be the perfect moment to make it happen. Everyone knows how vicious Randy Orton can be as a heel. He would be the ideal candidate to dethrone Cody Rhodes and become a 15-time World Champion, possibly at 'Bad Blood'.


#3. Cody Rhodes wins back the Undisputed WWE Championship

WWE will likely aim for a multi-match feud between Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes. If Randy Orton does win the Undisputed WWE Championship at Bad Blood, there's a strong possibility that a rematch will occur at another major Premium Live Event, such as Crown Jewel or Survivor Series.

Cody Rhodes will need to reclaim his title from The Viper as Orton doesn't need a lengthy title run. Rhodes getting the victory over a legend like Randy Orton would further cement Rhodes' status as the face of the company.


#2. The Rock

During the episode of Monday Night RAW following WrestleMania 40, it was teased that a feud between The Rock and Cody Rhodes might take place down the line. The Rock mentioned that his and Rhodes' story was just beginning and asked Rhodes if he could see the Undisputed WWE Championship. This could be a major foreshadowing.

The Rock could potentially emerge as the leader of the new Bloodline and get involved in the world title picture. A showdown between The Rock and Cody Rhodes would be a marquee match for the Royal Rumble next year. If The Rock was to win the title, it could set the stage for an epic Road to WrestleMania 41.


#1. Roman Reigns

Roman Reigns' return at SummerSlam has clearly set the stage for a potential Bloodline Civil War between the Original Bloodline and the current iteration led by Solo Sikoa. Many fans believe this storyline is building towards a monumental clash between Roman Reigns and The Rock at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas.

Ending the Bloodline saga at the Grandest Stage of Them All with the WWE Undisputed Championship on the line would be a fitting climax. Roman Reigns could defeat his cousin, solidifying himself as the one true Tribal Chief with the world title around his waist.
