Brock Lesnar is the reigning champion. He has been a poster boy of WWE for a while. Vince would rather want him to win. Out of the five matches, Brock and Reigns have contested, Brock has won thrice. History demands that Brock wins at SummerSlam 2018 with thundering applause.

#2 Roman Reigns wins the Universal Championship

Roman Reigns is the most polarised figure in WWE. He has lost to Lesnar most of the time. Reigns can win the title and pull an anti-climax to the SummerSlam 2018. WWE has to make sure that the scripts are written perfectly so that Roman's win generates a mass hysteria.

#3 No Contest or a Draw

Both Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar would have to be disqualified or taken to a hospital so that the result is a no-contest. A Draw is probable if Roman can match up to the power and skill of Brock and keep him pinned for a substantial amount of time which will end up in Lesnar retaining the title.

#4 Braun Strowman wins the Universal Championship

Kevin Owens can win against Braun Strowman by pinning him early. He can enter the ring where one of the two - Brock and Roman would have won, but tired. Hence it would be easy for wens to take him down and win the belt.
