If its an 8 man tournament I could see it being:
Roman Reigns #1 contender Sheamus Money in the Bank holder King Barrett King of the Ring Kevin Owens IC Champ Alberto Del Rio US Champ Dean Ambrose Cesaro Bray Wyatt Could have qualifiers for the 3 spots not guaranteed. |

Cesaro needs to finish Top 4 for sure, and give him an upset win over someone like Randy Orton in the quarters.... So easy to make stars in a tournament if done correctly....

Dean Ambrose its time to turn on your brother and become the best fucking evil heel this company has seen in years.

They can do a Shield triple threat at Summer Slam. If Reigns is still champ by then, you could have Ambrose win MITB, with Rollins cashing in his rematch the same night. After getting the shaft, Rollins takes a chair to Roman, with Dean coming in to pick up the pieces.
Reigns cashes in his rematch and Rollins gets another crack come Summer Slam. Could even do a "Road To Summer Slam" follow up leading in. This is assuming Reigns and Rollins flip flop. As for the tourney, having Reigns go over Ambrose in the main event, with the Authority siding with Roman, would be brilliant. Builds an instant feud into the next year, and perhaps instead of Rollins, Ambrose gets the Triple H match at Mania. |

So much bad news for WWE this year: Piper's and Dusty's passing, Hogan 'N' word "scandal", Snuka probably going on trial for murder, Cena leaves temporarily, Rusev, Orton, Rollins currently all injured, plus other injuries I think I'm missing.
2016 and a chance at a fresh start can't come soon enough. I guess the questions are - Do you bring back Cena way early for Survivor Series? Do you risk calling up 1 or 2 NXT guys? I wouldn't want to be in Vince, HHH or Steph's shoes. |

I'd save Brock for the Rumble. It sucks, but Rollins getting hurt opens up a chance for new guys in the main event scene.

Can you imagine Curtis running out of nowhere, beating down Triple H, and cutting a promo denouncing the fandango gimmick and blaming the Authority for not giving the man Johnny Curtis a legitimate opportunity? Yes please.

They should really play this off as Rollins being "jumped."
And then just have a throwaway line of Kevin Owens telling HHH "Your champ jeopardized my career and my family with his recklessness last week... Heh, I guess he got his." |

You would hope. Could really use Wyatt having Taker and Kanes souls to help him win the title, then have Kane and Taker as his monsters to use as he pleases. They only follow the his commands when he's holding the title. Ambose would be a good guy to take the title off him and release their souls.

This sucks for Rollins, but provided he recovers well, I do think this will be a good refresher for him later. Just trying to point out the silver-living. When he returns he'll get a huge pop and could turn against The Authority who just "forgot about him." Rollins is going to make the most money he is ever going to make in the WWE as a top babyface.
As for who they go with now? My first thought is that without the The Undertaker & Kane vs. The Wyatt Family officially booked, they might put a kibosh on that and just have the new "super-powered" Bray Wyatt enter the tournament on the other side to Reigns. Ambrose is likely to be in there too. If I had to predict a top four, I'd probably guess that Reigns vs. Del Rio and Ambrose vs. Wyatt will be the semi-finals. Ambrose could beat Owens, Del Rio could beat Cesaro, Wyatt could beat Ryback and Reigns could beat...Sheamus or Big Show? Seems like a pretty safe bet for crowd reactions and such. Now would be a great time to make the call to some guys like Chris Jericho, The Rock, Brock Lesnar or Batista, or calling up some fresh blood like Finn Balor or Samoa Joe, but I can see the WWE sticking to their game plan. I'd love to see Cesaro make it further through the tournament, but I can't see them letting him achieve that, even though it would be a great story and get the crowd invested. I think we'll probably get a Reigns vs. Ambrose final, and that one of the two might possibly turn heel. I could see Reigns as Corporate Champ, but they might feel it's "been done," and just go with Ambrose to continue flaming the "Reigns super-babyface" fire. |

I could see a Reigns vs. Ambrose final with Sheamus (and Barrett) hitting the ring and making it a Triple Threat, with Sheamus leaving the PPV as the World Champion. I'm not keen on Sheamus as MITB holder or as champ, but I could see them doing it. Four-way TLC at the next PPV between those guys.

Agree with Simple Fan on Bray winning the title being a great idea.
Would give his current heel push a huge boost that could make him into the new "Lesnar" or beast of the WWE. Already is set to become the new phenom with the powers he's eaten and has a menacing stable that Rollins rarely had with the Authority. Would also give a huge boost to whoever takes the belt from him either Reigns or some other rising/young new star. Also perfect way to officially start the post-Cena era for the WWE. Can even solve the Sheamus MitB dilemma by having the Wyatt Family demolish him once he cashes in. |

A rogue Johnny Curtis promising to fuck shit up if they don't give him his shot, getting fired and showing up at arenas across the country to wreak havoc and interrupt the show. I prefer my Johnny Curtis in a role where he can still show off his comedy charisma in a Rock-like fashion but as a start... I'll take it.

OOH! He can ribbon dance around the arena as he runs from security, distracting a bored crowd from whatever lame, meaningless match happens to be going on in the ring at the moment. Eventually when the "We want Johnny"/"We want ribbons" chants dominate 90% of Raw, Triple H is forced to rehire him to save the show.

Also could get behind Cesaro joining the Authority and winning the title. Would be something fresh Vince could get rid of the Cesaro section with a heel turn.

What's Bryan's status?
From what we've heard / read, Bryan says he's healthy, but waiting for a clearance from a third doctor. Would the WWE risk it? It wouldn't do shit for face Reigns, but a returning Bryan is the perfect foil to turn Reigns as well. |

They seem to be subtly building to an Ambrose heel turn on Reigns.
Honestly, have the tournament where Reigns eliminates Ambrose in the semi-final, for Ambrose to come back in the finals and just destroy Reigns. This is going to be interesting, because you have Reigns, Wyatt, and Sheamus who are basically at main event level now, and a ton of guys who are right on that cusp, and given a little nudge (Cesaro and Ambrose being the most notable), could probably take the ball and run for a few months. |
