If Roman had to leave at the end of the year due to health or Hollywood reasons, who could fill his spot for 2022?
They don't exist.
I like KO. But he's not the guy. Neither is Big E. Seth definitely isn't the guy, because if he was we'd know it by now.True. Someone could be used but they haven't built anyone up like that for there to be a suitable replacement. They have guys like Cesaro, KO, and Seth but I doubt any could replace Roman like the way he's booked. Big E too but he's champion on a different show. I think even the three I mentioned are all on Raw. Don't know who's a worthy candidate on SD.
Some variation of Lashley, Drew, Big E, Seth and throwing a bunch of money at Brock to fill the void is the easy guess as far as what they're immediate go-to moves would be.
Big picture/long term it's in the same ballpark as the "who's gonna main event WM50 ?" thread that was made on here not too long ago - I'm not sure that person is in the company yet, or if they're even in the wrestling business yet period. Baby Steiner seems like he's pushing the right buttons so far but who really knows.

I was thinking Bron or Gable when they get called up.Roman has been pushed as a protected guy from day 1 and that never faltered, it's part of what gives him more of a main event aura because he never drops into the upper midcard like Seth etc
They'd probably have to call up Bron Breakker and push him straight to the moon
