10 Most Likely Challengers To End Seth Rollins' WWE Title Reign

8. Rusev

Something the WWE is in dire need of is top heels. Believe it or not, faces are much easier to come by. Finding talented heels who feel natural in the role - now that's something rare. Rusev fits that role. Yes, the character is a throwback, even antiquated, but played with such a passion that it works. When he came out on a tank at WrestleMania 31, you can't argue that it wasn't a fantastic spectacle. He's a strong worker in the ring, and with or without Lana, a strong personality. Putting the title on him would push Rusev to the next level. In a storyline, it could make sense - Rusev should show loyalty to no one, and Rollins, another heel, should be a target just as much as anyone else. Rollins might even have a chance to turn face in that scenario, but you never know who fans will root for these days. Sadly, the WWE seems content with just matching Rusev up against Cena (and having him buried in the process) over and over in some sort of tired cold war retread. However, from a business standpoint, having him win the title makes him a mega-heel: the focal point for tons of heat from fans everywhere.
