8. Brock Lesnar vs. A UFC Fighter
It doesn’t seem to matter who Brock Lesnar is set up to fight, the way to book him is to have him compete as a ‘special attraction’. The structure of his contract is such that he can’t really be taking part in any long-standing feuds with any of the talents on either the Raw or Smackdown roster. Over the last year, we’ve seen him compete on isolated occasions. Those matches included the likes of Dean Ambrose, Randy Orton, and Goldberg. Each of these matches had a special feel to them because Lesnar is used in moderation, which helps increase his value.
So when we think about having Lesnar compete at Wrestlemania, the best scenario would be for him to fight someone from the same promotion that recently capitalized on his presence. In what would seem like a terrific opportunity to cross promote UFC and WWE, why not have Lesnar face a credible MMA fighter in a ‘wrestling’ match on the grandest stage of them all.
