On RAW last week, it was confirmed that there will be a special guest referee for the Universal Title match at Stomping Grounds. Here are some options for who could be the referee for Seth Rollins vs Baron Corbin.
7) Heath Slater
I wouldn’t be surprised to see Heath Slater get the job as the special guest referee at WWE Stomping Grounds.
Several months ago, Corbin gave Slater a job as a referee. This storyline never really went anywhere and WWE seems to have dropped it. This gives them an opportunity to bring the storyline back as Corbin is running out of options for his referee on Sunday night.
I could see Corbin picking Slater, thinking that he has him in his back pocket. Slater ends up helping Seth Rollins retain his Title as he is fed up with Corbin.
Could be a decent way to go.
6) Becky Lynch
I will admit, Becky Lynch’s name did NOT cross my mind until Bubba Ray Dudley pitched the idea on Busted Open Radio. Bubba thinks that Becky Lynch should be the special guest referee at Stomping Grounds.
Bubba says that it would be interesting from a storyline perspective because Seth would be distracted by Becky’s presence at ringside. Plus, it would provide an interesting moment if Brock Lesnar was to cash-in his Money in the Bank briefcase.
The idea is that Becky would have to stand up to Brock and it would really put Becky over. Here is a clip of Bubba explaining his idea:

This is definitely an interesting idea. I don’t know if WWE would ever pull the trigger but it would make Becky look like a million bucks.
