Wyatt vs. Reigns wouldn't surprise me, but it's obviously not my first preference. They've been very careful about not jamming Reigns back into that top guy position. Like, he's a star, but they aren't going too hard with him.

I think the best thing they could do to drum-up interest is have Bryan win the belt and Reigns turn heel on him. With The Usos, if you want. Now that people sort of like him, have him spit in their faces and turn vicious big dog who hates that Bryan is on top after his comeback and Reigns hasn't found that magic. Bring Vince McMahon out to do a victory lap because he's got his Corporate Champion. Have Baron Corbin, the stooge, kiss up to Reigns now. Maybe throw in Dolph Ziggler as someone to get beat down a lot.

Bray Wyatt can turn babyface and specifically target Baron Corbin as a bad role model to kids or whatever. Fans want to see him get destroyed, so build up to a WrestleMania that is the cowardly King of the Ring getting beaten bad. It's probably the best role for Corbin at this point.

The Usos, as I said earlier, heat up that tag team scene. The Revival can, I guess, turn babyface, being replaced by them. Then you've got The New Day as babyfaces and Miz & Morrison as arrogant heels. Four-way Ladder Match for the belts at Mania. Or two tag team matches, should you really want to drag things out.

Dolph Ziggler can piss off Braun Strowman. His whole gimmick is he wants to be Shawn Michaels. Braun can play Taker. Neither is as good as their counterpart in that analogy, but put them in a Cell at Mania and let them do their best.

SmackDown could get real good with a tiny little bit of focus. Just not into Sheamus being back. I would have stuck him on Raw so there aren't any loose threads with Cesaro. Not that I have particular interest in him as a singles act either. But I would have done Sheamus vs. Chad Gable. I just hope it leads to Chad getting the duke.
