Rumor: Potential Upcoming Plans for WWE, Universal, and US Titles

These are the currently rumored plans for upcoming feuds in regards to the WWE, Universal, and US title belts, according to this week’s Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

In regards to the WWE title, the current plan is for Randy Orton to keep the title and likely feud with Baron Corbin next since WWE feels it’s too early for Nakamura to get a WWE title feud.

For the US title, the current plan is for Kevin Owens to keep the title and to be busy feuding with AJ Styles for the near future.

For the Universal title, Brock Lesnar’s first title defense is currently planned to happen either in June or July with Braun Strowman as the challenger. For long term plans, Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns is still expected to be the Universal title match and main event for next year’s WrestleMania.
