8 Top Challengers For WWE Champion Roman Reigns In 2016

3. Triple H

Triple H is the likely next big-name challenger for the reigning WWE Champion. Whether that match takes places at WrestleMania in Dallas, FastLane in Cleveland or later in the year, it's a pretty safe bet to predict these two will square-off in 2016. The bigger question revolves around whether the former Shield member will still be wearing the gold by the time he battles The Game? At 46 years of age and considering his position in the company, HHH can realistically expect to be able to compete in the ring in some manner for the next 10 years. Vince didn't even start wrestling until he was 53 and stars like The Undertaker, Ric Flair, and Sting wrestled for WWE even after hitting 50 and they weren't running the company. The point is Triple H winning another WWE Championship and tying John Cena or breaking Ric Flair's records are not that unbelieveable, and a potential championship match with Reigns isn't the worst thing that could happen. Since the Authority Leader vs. top babyface has been done before at WrestleMania, adding the title to the mix might be a refreshing update. Regardless of which direction WWE chooses to go, Triple H vs. Roman Reigns is penciled in for some point at 2016 and could be one of the most intriguing battles of the year.
