You’ll probably see em around for another 5,10 maybe 15 years lol… but I get you tho, it’s time for something new but at the same time Seth has been killing it for awhile now. Seth is best. Roman can go Hollywood and Moxley rehab lol. lol I wouldn’t mind em staying for a long time, they been the best things in wrestling since 2012 tbh.

I don't think many is gonna be disappointed at all with one of these two greats comes away being the first new champ.

I don’t mind either but I’ve always been a bigger AJ Styles fan so I chose him. It’s also kinda crazy that Seth is once again facing a Bullet Club leader for a new heavyweight title, the first being Finn Balor at SummerSlam 2016 for the Universal title.

I pick neither
I see Brock being added to this match due to Brock not having a match now at NOC.
New champ Brock Lesnar...

Has to be Seth, but this whole new belt has been a cluster. It’s the RAW championship so let’s have a tournament where half the talent and venues are from SD. It made no sense to have SD involved with it.

I’m pulling for AJStyles. Time is not on his side. Since we’re here, should make it interesting going into the summer as there’d be no reason to see AJ get the win here then have Rollins beat him a little later or however it goes - maybe Summerslam. Another world champ run would be great to see for AJ. Seeing him bobbing around not in title contention has been tedious at times.

Some trivial quick math's for anyone interested
Since debuting in 2016, AJ Styles has won 26 out of 67 PPV matches he's been in with a total PPV victory rate of 38.80% Since 2016, Seth Rollins has won 36 out of 76 PPV matches he's been in with a total PPV victory rate of 46.05%
in contrast
Since 2016, Roman Reigns has won 50 out of 71 PPV matches he's been in with a total PPV victory rate of 70.42%

I would've thought Roman would be even higher

I would've thought Roman would be even higher I think his overall match win percentage is like 73% or 74% which is dead even with someone like Hogan (total career win rate 74%) who everyone gets on for backstage politicking and holding talent under allegedly. Romans total PPV percentage is only 65% while his overall all time 1v1 match percentage is 88% victory rate. All of those stats are insanity. I knew they were pushing him hard but I didn't realize it was this rough, mathematically speaking.

I went with Seth Rollins
Will this champion appear on both shows too though?? If not, it has to be Seth Rollins since he's on Raw and AJ Styles is on Smackdown

Little surprised as the voting results at the moment. 19-17 AJ.
Seth is my #1, so let’s go get that chip!

i've only kept up with wwe stuff on twitter and the like since i think mania? but this match alone is enough to get me to watch. the title itself is ugly as sin but the match should be fantastic. aj called it a secondary title so seth is automatically winning lol.

Another World title run could motivate AJ Styles, and that’s what I wanna see. Either way I won’t be disappointed, just think it’s the more interesting route. Also he’s probably not gonna be doing this for too much longer full time, so might as well pull the trigger now. Seth is still young comparatively.
Also just realized it’s been 5 years since his last world title, and it was for a week…
