My guess is --
Cesaro vs. Seth in a Hell in a Cell match in June (no Reigns match)
Cesaro vs. Reigns at Money in the Bank
Reigns vs. King of the Ring Shinsuke Nakamura at SummerSlam
Seth face turn and Seth vs. Reigns for the fall and Survivor Series.
Big E isn't getting his title match until WrestleMania in Dallas IMO, it feels like he's still stuck in Apollo-land right now. I think the main event scene will be some sort of mix of Reigns, Nakamura, Cesaro and Seth for now. I guess D. Bry returning for revenge at WrestleMania in Dallas might happen, too, but who knows.

Apologies if it was already suggested What about Roman/Jimmy Hell In A Cell? That’s the match that got Jey to see it “Roman’s way.” Now it’s Jimmy’s turn.
Also, I get the Reigns of terror, but I’m willing to ride it out for a better payoff. Unlike Brock’s runs, Roman losing won’t be a repetitive recycle and will mean a lot more because he won’t be absentee.

And there has been no misstep as far as him running over people who could win the title You could make an argument as far as Cesaro getting a Luger moment but outside of that, he's beaten everyone he should have beaten including Edge and DB He's not looking the most dominant, he's just winning sometimes by skin of his teeth. He's dominant but not invincible. Lashley is damn near invincible and as he should be I'm really liking having two final boss type champions tho I think Drew gets the title back on RAW since they have no one else built up while SD probably leans toward Big E

I’m not stopping with my want; an Uso needs to beat him.

They’ve pretty much booked him like I called from Day 1, only missing a little bit of time where he was an unwilling bitch before he went full lackey bitch. Next up is the face turn.

I think the only thing is that if they somehow have The Rock for Mania, you have to do Rock vs. Roman for the Universal Title there and then let Jimmy take the belt next year at SummerSlam. I really don't see them ending the Roman title run before Mania next year at the earliest.

Again if they're super dead set on keeping this a long, longterm thing, the dude desperately needs to take a metaphorical pie to the face at least like once. Or an actual pie to the face, I'm not that picky.
In the last few shows he's beaten the Rumble winner and another challenger in the main event of Wrestlemania, retired/banished Daniel Bryan by beating him clean, and now beaten Cesaro clean with like zero discernable consequence to him narratively.

With them shifting things around and Roman just running through all the babyfaces I do not think Vince is gonna let anyone beat Roman in an actual match but instead it is going to be someone cashing in the MITB.
It will be a completely hollow and cheap way to do it but this is exactly how I expect Vince to get the belt off of Roman without him ever getting actually beat for it , it unfortunately sucks for the babyface that does it but the way Roman has been made out to be there is no other way it is likely to happen.

So like how Brock lost the title off a Strowman distraction making the entire thing pointless...

I think they are setting up Roman vs his cousins at Mania in an all out family beef unless we somehow get him vs Rock for Dallas with the family standing behind Rocky

He’s due for an utter destruction asskicking like when Braun famously wasn’t finished with him.

Like remember during the Jey feud despite keep talking about how he's doing it for his family and all that... he got more and more unhinged with the beatings on Jey showed that his "I'm doing this for my family" was bullshit and he was doing it for his own ego? Hell getting "humiliated" by Cesaro with the swing was the easiest way to do that if you didn't want Cesaro to win...

This current incarnation of Roman would absolutely seem like the kind of guy who would freak out, so to speak, about Cesaro catching him in the Swing despite ultimately retaining. It’s basically like a sports coach upset that his team allowed points in a massive blowout win.

If they were going to have an angle about someone getting humiliated by being caught in the Giant Swing, it shouldn't directly follow an angle about... someone getting humiliated by being caught in the Giant Swing.

WWE should have been building Nakamura up as the next challenger but no let’s have him lose to Corbin 2 weeks in a row. I’m assuming Jimmy Uso is next because who else is there? Big E hasn’t been built up enough. Drew needs to go to Smackdown if he’s not getting the title back from Lashley. Edge? Rollins? Again both are heels so that dynamic doesn’t work.

My gut says they're killing time for Edge / Reigns at Summerslam.
