There's no doubt that Roman Reigns would still be Universal Champion had he not had leukaemia. Unfortunately, it returned and he was forced to vacate the Universal title. It's also very likely that he would have held and defended the title successfully at the grandest stage of them all as well.

WWE had invested a lot of time and money into making Reigns the top guy. It's unlikely that he'll return until 2020, and with Lesnar's schedule uncertain, they need a top babyface to replace Roman Reigns.

The powers that be probably felt that Rollins was the guy to take the role, and they're absolutely right about it. Seth Rollins is likely set to receive the biggest push of his career so far. He's won the WWE title and technically main evented WrestleMania, but that was as a cowardly heel.

Now, he's set to become the company's number one superstar.
