Roman Reigns has been a dominant Universal Champion from the moment he returned to the company. Being undefeated for over 500 days, he has put together a run unlike any other in the modern era. Now he has added the WWE Title to his list of accomplishments, taking him further up the ladder.
While the Tribal Chief has taken on all challengers, from Edge and Daniel Bryan to John Cena and Brock Lesnar, there are still many stars he hasn't faced. Whether it is on Raw or SmackDown, WWE has plenty of top talents ready to face him, but not all of them have a great chance of winning.
10 Shinsuke Nakamura (No Chance)
Following WrestleMania 38 it appears that Shinsuke Nakamura could be the guy that steps up first to challenge Roman Reigns. After his tag team partner was left injured, the King Of Strong Style appears to be ready to move back into the main event scene of WWE.
There is no doubt that Nakamura is a fantastic professional wrestler, and he would put on a fantastic match against Reigns with his striking skills. However, he ultimately has zero chance of being the person that takes the title away from him.
9 Bron Breakker (Slight Chance)
Bron Breakker might be on the NXT roster right now, but he is somebody that WWE does have big plans for. He is a dominant talent, and because of that, he could end up being pushed immediately whenever he officially makes the move to the main roster.
Seeing him charge toward Roman Reigns would instantly make him a star, and if WWE truly wanted to put him over, having him topple the champion would do that. With that in mind, Bron does have a slight chance of being the guy, but WWE is likely to go with an established name first.
8 Bobby Lashley (Great Chance)
The battle of the Spears would be an interesting match to see, with two of the most dominant main event players colliding. Bobby Lashley is a huge name on the roster, and somebody that is now an established World Champion caliber wrestler.
Since Lashley has reached that level in his career, he would have a great chance of genuinely being able to defeat Roman Reigns. Fans would buy into the possibility of the All-Mighty taking out the champion, which puts him in a great position within the company.
7 AJ Styles (Good Chance)
AJ Styles and Roman Reigns have a history of competing against each other for the WWE Championship, and they had some great matches. But the two men haven't competed for a long time, and especially not during this title run, which is why WWE could end up booking this.
It is a rivalry that audiences would easily get behind, and AJ is somebody that fans could buy into defeating the Tribal Chief. He'd have a good chance of securing the victory as well, because he's a main event player.
6 Gunther (Good Chance)
Gunther is a fresh face on the SmackDown roster, and he is someone with huge size and power, which is what makes him such an interesting star. His hard-hitting ability and huge chops are something that could lead to a fun encounter with Roman Reigns.
He is one of few wrestlers that could genuinely stand toe to toe with Roman and that would make things interesting. If WWE wanted to push Gunther, having him beat Reigns could be a good way to go, and that is why he'd have a good chance against him.
5 Riddle (Slight Chance)
Since Riddle has never been a World Champion in WWE, it is hard to say that he would have anything more than a slight chance of being the guy to take the title away from Roman Reigns. However, if WWE wanted to push him to that level, then a victory against him would establish that goal.
Riddle is a huge star with great in-ring ability, and that is something that would work in his favor. However, Reigns has been incredibly dominant during his time as champion, and Riddle is likely someone he'd add to his list of victims.
4 Randy Orton (Good Chance)
The Viper, Randy Orton is another wrestler who hasn't competed against Roman Reigns during this run, despite being one of the top stars in the business. He has been busy in the tag team division during Roman's run as champion, but he could up getting a chance at some point.
Orton has been one of the most dominant wrestlers of all time, so he always has a good chance of picking up a victory when he competes. It is hard to bet against Randy, therefore a match between them would be interesting to see.
3 Cody Rhodes (Great Chance)
Cody Rhodes is the newest member of the WWE roster, and he has been brought back as a top main event player immediately. He has made it clear that he wants to challenge for the top title, and that means he is on a collision course with Roman Reigns, with that being his destiny.
It is a match that fans want to see between two of the best wrestlers in the company at the moment. Because WWE wants to push him heavily, the American Nightmare has got a great chance of being able to defeat the Tribal Chief.
2 Sheamus (No Chance)
Sheamus is a great wrestler, and seeing his hard-hitting style against Roman Reigns would bring a real fight out of the champion. However, even though he could certainly match the champion in terms of strength and power, it is unlikely he would secure a victory.
He could create a competitive match, but it is hard to buy into the idea that the Celtic Warrior would be the one to dethrone Roman. WWE doesn't view Sheamus as that main event caliber talent anymore, and because of that, he would be beaten by the Bloodline leader.
1 Drew McIntyre (Great Chance)
Out of everybody on the WWE roster, it does feel like Drew McIntyre has got the best chance of being the man to dethrone Roman Reigns. He is another of the most dominant stars in the company, and someone who Vince McMahon ranks highly as a main event player on the roster.
Drew has clashed with Roman before at Survivor Series when he was champion, and the two of them put together a competitive encounter. He has slowly been getting built back up since he lost his title, and when the time is right, he will have a great chance of being the one to defeat Reigns.
