Haven't read anything with regard to plans involving Seth Rollins and his MITB briefcase. I can't see him as a future WWE Champion but then again you could say the same thing about CM Punk and Daniel Bryan. I just want to see Dean Ambrose thwart his plans at every opportunity. That will entertain me at least.
Apparently the short-term plan is for Cena to face Brock Lesnar at Summerslam. Long-term, it is probably to put the belt on Roman Reigns at Wrestlemania 31. If Lesnar wins at Summerslam, it gives Reigns a heel to chase which will go some way to cement his status as the company's top babyface. If Cena wins, I don't know how the eventual feud between Reigns and Cena will pan out as, apparently, Cena is against turning heel. I suppose you could do a Hogan/Warrior WM6-style build-up but, ultimately, that may damage Reigns as it did The Ultimate Warrior - especially if, like Hogan, Cena isn't ready to give up the limelight yet.
Daniel Bryan may get a couple of title-shots upon his return but he was never meant to be the face of the company (both HHH and Vince like tall, muscular champs - the fans got behind Bryan so they went with it) so I doubt he's going to win the title straight away. That's not to say he will never win the title or headline PPV's - just that he's seen as a guy to can add quality to matches but is not necessarily the star of the show.
