9 Next WWE Steps For Seth Rollins
6. Lengthy Feud For The Title
Irrespective of who else is in the main event picture - Kevin
Owens, Roman Reigns or the pair of them - Seth Rollins should really be in the
mix as well.
Reigns has unfinished business elsewhere, specifically with Rusev for that US title, and to an extent so does Owens with Jeri-KO, although naturally the championship supersedes that. For Rollins on the other hand, there aren't currently a great number of options for him in the lower echelons of the card.
Ever since returning from injury, he’s persistently challenged for top-tier titles, in a bid for retribution after being stripped of the belt way back in November 2015. Of course, that retribution is yet to arrive really. He may have won the title at Money in the Bank, but having seen Dean Ambrose cash-in almost immediately means he’s still in search of his major pay-off.
So a lengthy feud for the Universal title would seem the most appropriate direction, while that eventual pay-off promises to be even sweeter under this new babyface persona.
