3 Potential Challengers for Braun Strowman If He Wins The Universal Championship At Hell In A Cell

En
Main Event Of Hell In A Cell Pay Per View

It is hard to believe that Roman Reigns will lose the Universal Championship so early after finally dethroning Brock Lesnar at Summerslam this year. Most of the WWE universe feels the same way but his next title defense is against The Monster Among the Men, Braun Strowman, who does not loose his matches often(as he is also booked equally strong as Roman). Its really hard to predict the victor in the main event of the upcoming Pay Per View Hell In A Cell. The main event at Hell In A Cell is guaranteed to be a hard-hitting contest with some outside shenanigans from Shield and Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre.

If at all Braun Strowman manages to overcome the Shield's powerhouse and win the Universal title, then he may need some challengers for his future championship defense. We will take a look at 3 potential opponents for Braun Strowman.

#3 Bobby Lashley

Bobby Lashley has been booked in abysmal feuds ever since he returned to WWE earlier this year on the Raw after Wrestlemania. He had a short alliance with Braun Strowman during his come back, before entering into a dreadful feud with Sami Zayn.

Currently he is booked in random angles with superstars like Jinder Mahal and Kevin Owens, which are not at all captivating interest of the audience. So the WWE should change his booking direction by tweaking his character into the mould of Brock, as a destructor rather than a smiling baby face which he is portraying now.

This turn will make him one of the legitimate main eventers on Monday night Raw, as Raw is lacking them currently. He is also one the Legit superstars who can be a believable challenger for Braun Strowman's title defence.

#2 Seth Rollins

Seth Rollins is one of the main-event level faces on the Raw roster. He is also the most popular superstar among the WWE Universe currently due his electric performances inside the ring.

He has been away from the main-event scene since his feud with Kevin Owens in late 2016. He has been the stand out performer this year and his Intercontinental title defenses have been huge success. So Its time he gets back into the main-scene because he has not held a world title since 2 years as his last world title win was a the 2016 Money in the bank Pay Per View. It will also freshen up the title scene. He can play the role of Under dog baby-face to perfection against the Heel Monster Among Men which may produce an engaging feud through the winter.

#1 Roman Reigns

There is no way that Roman Reigns is going to lose the Universal championship clean( if at all he is going to loose) at upcoming Pay Per View so early into his reign as he is the face of the WWE right now.

But the recent alliance of Braun Strowman with Dolph Ziggler and Drew McIntyre may lead to an unclean victory of the Monster against the Big Dog. So the most logical thing going ahead would be to continue their feud till another PPV . Even if roman retains the title at the PPV they are going to continue their feud for at least one more PPV till Survivor Series where they may clash in a traditional Survivor series match.
