May 30th, should he reach that date as champion, will be his 9th month as Universal Champion so the question is, who will end his reign?
The names on Smackdown right now who could are slim outside of Seth.
Do they have Dwayne do it at Wrestlemania in Dallas? Have a call up from NXT or a returning star?

The names on Smackdown right now who could are slim outside of Seth. Do they have Dwayne do it at Wrestlemania in Dallas? Have a call up from NXT or a returning star? Voiced similar concerns a while back, no top faces on Smackdown in the immediate future. Kevin Owens has already been put down. Daniel Bryan's been vanquished and could be gone for good. Edge turned heel, and now MIA. Seth could turn face but I see him putting over Head Cheese as well. Big E has a chance but he needs a major boost. Cesaro LULZ. Rey is on the back burner and no real threat, especially at his age. Showdown with Rock would be a torch passing moment if it happened. Brock Lesnar as a face? Hard sell. Goldberg would be a better story now than it would have been in 2020, but he isn't getting a title run off Reigns. McIntyre seems like the likeliest thru the draft.

who would I want to see? WALTER
who will? probably another surprise transitional champ like Kofi, considering outside of that the well is pretty dry

Those were my picks to, but I don't see it happening any time soon (nor should it).

I do wanna see John return and pin Roman for the title. It would be a true OMG moment. He can drop it back the next week or month but wow what a sight it would be.

It’s going to be Drew. They’ve been building Drew and Roman as their next Cena and Orton. Roman is on fire right now, and Drew is wearing thin on Raw. He’s been through almost everyone already besides maybe the Fiend (if that’s even a thing anymore) or whatever Wyatt does next. I assume Drew will go to SD in the next draft. They won’t to it immediately after that either, it’ll be a big match at Wrestlemania. I feel like Edge might get it at Summerfest, but it’ll be a short term deal.
As for outsiders or part-timers I’d rather not see Brock or Goldberg back at all. Rock I just don’t see winning the feud, or the belt again unless it’s super short term, which would arguably do more harm than good to Roman.

I've really enjoyed Roman recently and wouldn't be against him carrying the belt to next WM.
If I were to choose I would pick Finn Balor. It would be cool seeing him win back the title that he never lost.

Whoever it is, it shouldn’t be for a long time.

I’d like it to be Cesaro but not yet. It still feels far too early for him. I get that he’s been in the company for several years but his push seems like it only started five minutes ago.

No current WWE superstar is believable to beat this version of Roman Reigns.
Only Brock Lesnar, The Rock, or John Cena would work, in my opinion. But they are all semi retired and would likely only appear on a part time business. It’s better to have Roman there ever week than to go back to basically having no Champion because the part timers are rarely there.
In my opinion, just stick with Roman. It’s finally working.

Even I admit Drew would be a waste but there's literally no one else believable right now. I honestly think I'd keep it on him for another couple years.

They should throw us a shocker and put the strap on Cesaro.

Big E or Keith Lee for sure. Won’t be for a while though and that’s perfectly fine.

Out of the current roster the only ones that would make sense to me would be Drew or Fiend. I think either of those could beat Reigns and make it believable although admittedly both guys are not at their best right now either.
Keith Lee could have been that guy a few years ago but he let himself go at the tail end of his NXT run and who knows whats going on with him these days.
On the non active roster, it’s either Cena or Rock. But I doubt they give either guy a title at this point unless they’re around for a few months. Because otherwise you have Reigns lose, probably would have to win it back the next month due to movie obligations and then we’re back to the same issue there is now of who’s on Reigns level.
I have a weird feeling its probably going to be Edge sometime around Summerslam but essentially they’ve ruined the reaction for that now that he’s kinda in between heel and face at the moment.
I’m totally cool with Reigns having a lengthy title reign if he can keep his current gimmick strong and not let it go stale. No one is even close to his level right now.
