10 WWE Superstars Who Could Dethrone Roman Reigns

After two runs and however many years, WWE have finally got Bobby Lashley right.

By presenting the 'All Mighty' as an elite athlete, they have let his in-ring skills and natural charisma come to the front, hiding his average promo ability and letting his matches do the talking. As explosive as any big man in the business, the current WWE United States Champion moves around the ring like a man half his size, but he hits people like a man twice as big.

Sometimes, wrestlers need to be larger than life, and Lashley absolutely fits the bill.

His run with the WWE Championship in 2021 was well received, and he proved he can be the top guy in the company. With Reigns rarely, if ever, on Monday Night Raw, Lashley has stepped in as the dominant champion and has elevated the US belt to the same heights as John Cena did in his critically acclaimed run.

This wouldn't be a hard sell, either. Use some shenanigans to take the US Title from the big man, and then have him target Reigns. The two have had surprisingly little interaction since Lashley returned to the company, and their match at Extreme Rules four years ago was great.

And Lashley won.

Few people on the roster have a clean win over the Tribal Chief. Even fewer would look credible showing little fear of stepping into the ring with the entire Bloodline.

Enter, the 'All Mighty'.
