10 Opponents For Roman Reigns After WWE WrestleMania 32

8. Seth Rollins

While Rollins isn't expected back until SummerSlam at the earliest, a return in 2016 is probable and he would make for a big-money opponent for Roman Reigns. The storyline is already there and, unlike many other storylines that WWE produce these days, this one has layers. Obviously, their history goes back to their days as members of The Shield and how it was Rollins that betrayed both Reigns and Dean Ambrose, setting off on his own and becoming the first member of the group to wear the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Despite the split, Rollins and Roman never had a true one-on-one program as Ambrose sought revenge first and a feud with Roman was held for a later date. That later date was scheduled to be this past November at the 2015 Survivor Series, in which it is believed that Roman would've dethroned Rollins as champion. Due to the serious knee injury that Rollins suffered weeks prior to the November PPV, this match had to be cancelled and Rollins was stripped of his title. Assuming Reigns walks out of WrestleMania in Dallas as the World Heavyweight Champion, a ready-made program exists with Rollins, the man who was never defeated for that same WWE Championship. It's simply a matter of time and place.
