Well, that dreaded day has come. Seth Rollins is out for 6-9 months with a knee injury, the WWE World Heavyweight championship is being vacated and the main event booking plans for the next 6 months are now out the window.
WWE is scrambling to bring in big names to fill out a star-deprived roster and a new champion will be crowned in less than two weeks at Survivor Series. The fact that WWE finds themselves in such a bad spot without multiple young talents ready to fill the void is a lengthy discussion for another day.
What I want to hear from you is who you think is ready right now? Who do you think is ready to take the next step? Who is genuinely ready to carry the show?
WWE could go in a number of directions from here. We could see Roman Reigns continue on his path, win the championship tournament and stand tall as the new babyface champion. Another popular ‘fantasy booking’ scenario has Reigns turning heel, aligning himself with The Authority and becoming the new golden boy sellout champion, not unlike his old pal Seth Rollins. We could also see a dark horse champion emerge, perhaps a Kevin Owens or even Mr. Money in the Bank, Sheamus.
Comment below and tell us how you think it will all go down at Survivor Series!
