Any time somebody wins a championship whether it's the big one or any of the other ones it's important that there are challengers lined up for the champion to face. In Cena's case, if he does become WWE Champion there are at least a few guys that come to mind. Bray Wyatt: They've had three PPV matches already this year, so it wouldn't have to be a sudden feud. It could still happen, though. Wyatt's a star on the rise that is likely going to be a WWE Champion within the next year or two. Seth Rollins: This would be a fresh matchup. Rollins hasn't worked as a main event heel for too long, but he's going to be there sooner rather than later. He's probably the heel that would give Cena the best match too because he's one of the best in-ring performers in WWE. Bad News Barrett: Barrett's a former rival of Cena from about four years ago. A lot has changed since then, at least with Barrett. He's all about delivering the bad news and with Cena facing off against him it would give him a lot of credibility in terms of facing off against a guy that's considered the best. Barrett's ready to go to that next level. Cesaro: A lot of it depends on how long he stays a heel. It would be great to see these two matched up at Battleground in July. If Cesaro lost, perhaps his manager Paul Heyman could use that as a reason to dump him and lead to the face turn of Cesaro that we're all expecting to see any day now. Guys like Randy Orton, Kane and Triple H would fit also. However, does anybody really want to see more matches between Cena and those guys? Not really. There's also Brock Lesnar, but more on him later.
