#3 Intercontinental Champion - Seth Rollins

The feud between Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose is shaping up to be an iconic one, as Ambrose is at his heel best and has already got the WWE Universe hating him after he betrayed his former tag team partner and Shield brother.

I think that Rollins - who is to face US Champion Shinsuke Nakamura at Survivor Series - will hold the Intercontinental title for a few months, and then lost it to Ambrose after Royal Rumble, and then set up a match at WrestleMania 35, which could be when the feud ends.

Rollins is set to defend his Intercontinental title at TLC, as per this report.


#4 US Champion - Rey Mysterio

Shinsuke Nakamura's run as United States champion - the first belt he has won the main roster since being called up, has been average, at best. Since winning the belt from Jeff Hardy at Extreme Rules, Nakamura's Naka-Murica gimmick has been interesting and has got more heat from the fans, which is a great thing for any heal.

But I think his run as US Champion will end by the end of 2018. I could see him losing his belt at TLC to Rey Mysterio, to whom he lost a match on SD1000. Mysterio is hot with the WWE Universe since recently re-signing with the WWE, and TLC would be the perfect PPV to showcase his legendary high-flying moves and win the US title for the first time.

A dream match at TLC would be between Nakamura, Mysterio, Jeff Hardy, and Andrade "Cien" Almas, with Mysterio taking home the title.
