7) Seth Rollins (Randy Orton vs. Seth Rollins)

This one could really go either way. However, Seth Rollins is the favorite here based on his role in the future of WWE.

Since breaking away from The Shield, Rollins has been WWE’s top heel. He has grown tremendously in his time in The Authority stable, gaining more and more heat in arenas around the country. He is setting up to be a key piece of WWE’s long-term plans.

To continue Rollins’ ascension, he will be in a match with former Authority stablemate Randy Orton. The assumption here is that Orton will put over Rollins. However, with his MITB briefcase still lingering in the background, WWE could give The Viper the victory to set up Rollins’ cash-in moment at the end of the night. If that does happen, it would be one of WrestleMania’s biggest moments. It is just one scenario, but it is the reason Rollins is ranked 7th on this list.

If Rollins does win this match against Orton, he could always hold onto the briefcase for another few months and use it at Extreme Rules or Payback (if the belt is defended). Stay tuned.
