Seth Rollins opened WrestleMania 35 with his Universal Championship match against Brock Lesnar. As many had already predicted, he beat the Beast and won the championship. Now Seth Rollins is flying high and is eagerly awaiting to see who his next opponent will be.

During the recent Superstar Shake-up, Seth Rollins remained on Raw, but his former teammates on the Shield did not. Roman Reigns moved to the blue brand in a bid to find greener pastures after being ever present on Raw.

Dean Ambrose's contract was up and he is currently out of WWE, but rumors have suggested that the Lunatic will be back, and it is a matter of when and not if.

Given all that, it is now Seth Rollins' time to shine, with Brock Lesnar not in line to challenge Rollins for the title, it is high time the creative team at WWE find worthy opponents and mouth-watering storylines for the Beast Slayer.

Here are 3 opponents who we think are worthy of challenging for the title.


#3 Sami Zayn

It is evident that Seth Rollins will be the babyface champion, as he has portrayed the heel role for a good amount of time and it is time he portrays the babyface champion for the first time in his career.

For every babyface, you need a heel, and who better than Sami Zayn in the current setup to challenge Rollins for the gold. Recently Sami Zayn has been cutting promos that are the gold standard, and after a lengthy lay off, he seems like a changed man.

It is also rumored that one of the promos was not scripted. Sami Zayn will surely give Seth a run for his money with the mic, but he needs to improve his in-ring performances.
