John Cena will challenge Roman Reigns for the Universal championship, and Cena has history in his sights. If he wins at SummerSlam, Cena will become a 17-time world champion and surpass Ric Flair in WWE's record books for the most world title reigns in history.

Goldberg is not officially locked in as Bobby Lashley's challenger for the WWE championship yet, but his return to Monday Night Raw and face-to-face staredown with the current champion has all but guaranteed that match.
