Seth Rollins Vs Brock Lesnar (c) – Universal Championship
Look, is this one likely to happen? Probably not. Is it the match everybody would rather see Brock Lesnar in though? 100%. Seth Rollins is arguably the hottest superstar on Monday nights right now, and if the WWE build this right over the coming months, then he could finally cement his place as the brand’s top babyface and topple Brock Lesnar in the process.
The two men have a lot of unfinished business in the ring, and Rollins has been fairly vocal about Lesnar’s role in the WWE in recent weeks. The WWE could even go down the route of booking a champion vs champion match at the event, though, they did only use that angle three years ago when Seth Rollins took on John Cena.
Rollins has been the best main-roster performer so far this year, and he deserves something for his efforts. Sure, Roman Reigns or Braun Strowman are likely to be placed in this position ahead of him, but if the WWE have just a modicum of sense left, then they will, at the very least, consider this as an option.

A victory for Rollins would also finally allow the likes of Finn Balor to rise back up the card and compete for the company’s top prize, something that they have not been able to do during Lesnar’s ridiculously dominant reign.
