Rival Battles I pray happen in
Sonic X Shadow Generations
As I'm sure you know a remaster of Sonic Generations with a newly added Shadow campaign is coming this fall! We don't really know anything about it except what's on the Steam page. One thing on the Steam page caught my eye specifically;
This screenshot really reminds me of the rival battles in base Sonic Generations. Also not to mention FUCKING BLACK DOOM IS BACK???
This implies to me that Sonic Team is willing to bring back some characters they haven't brought back in a LONG ass time for this game. Even ones we thought they'd rather forget.
Now we don't know the length of the game but in base Sonic Generations there were 3 rival battles.
Now realistically Sonic is going to take one of the three spots I'm sure but let's have some fun and imagine who the other two could be anyway.
Now who are characters who have developed a cult following from games that most agree aren't that good? Who also have something against Shadow specifically? (All criteria Black Doom also hits).
That's right Mephiles and Infinite! Everytime I hear about these three characters it's always along the lines of "wow these games sucked but the antagonists were cool as hell and it's sad they were wasted" or something like that.
Well my response to that is bring them back! Neither are technically dead (one is trapped the other was erased but you can take that as you will I suppose) within canon so it could be done but what they are doing here is probably smarter for now. Making them an issue with space time falling apart. I'm assuming this is just what Shadow was doing during the base game, so makes sense enemies old (and maybe even new (Infinite)) would be a problem for him.

Now am I even slightly confident in this happening? No not really. Do I still hope it does? Yes, very much so. And I mean Black Doom being here really does make anything possible I suppose. But in reality this is just fun speculation, nothing more.
