3. Roman Reigns

As of now, Roman Reigns is set to return at Battleground in a triple threat match for the WWE Heavyweight Title. Will he get the gold back? Unlikely. It’s tough to imagine Vince McMahon handing him the belt again, giving him a pat on the back, and acting like everything is back to normal. That means Roman is going to need something big for SummerSlam in order to keep his momentum.

While we have seen Roman vs. Brock before, what would make the rematch infinitely more appealing is if Roman was a heel this time around. Fans would absolutely love to see Brock destroy him, and any sort of victory (no matter how cheap it is) would give Roman some incredible heat.

It’s time that Vince realizes that Roman as the next great babyface just isn’t going to happen anytime soon. Let the fans have some fun, and let them witness the man they love to boo so much get taken to Suplex City for an extended tour. Then all is forgiven!

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
