10 Wrestlers Set For A Big Push Following WrestleMania 33

3. Seth Rollins

Finally free of Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, it’s time for Seth Rollins to start moving back up the card. His main event career was derailed the moment 'The Game' cost him the Universal Title back in August, but Rollins earned his redemption at WrestleMania. Seth defeated Triple H decisively, writing him off television for the foreseeable future, and clearing his own pathway towards championship glory.

'The Architect' might be on the move in the upcoming 'Superstar Shake-up', but wherever he lands, he’ll be an immediate top contender. Only Finn Bálor can rival him for popularity on Raw, and on SmackDown, nobody stands in his way in becoming top babyface. Rollins will likely be a constant presence in the title picture for the rest of 2017, and his push should start immediately.

Moving to SD probably makes the most sense for Rollins at the moment, as there’s always the possibility of the (non-Shane) McMahons showing up on Raw. It would allow Seth to not only escape WWE’s power couple, but their affiliates Samoa Joe and Kevin Owens, and finally enjoy a push without authority-based distractions. Rollins is already one of WWE’s most important wrestlers: expect his stock to continually rise throughout the year.
