WWE WrestleMania 33: 20 Early Predictions

3. Brock Lesnar Wins the WWE Universal Championship
The Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar match will be another short one, except there will be a title change, as the Beast Incarnate wins his first title since SummerSlam 2014. He’ll take the WWE Universal Championship at WrestleMania 33.
The title change would be due to Goldberg potentially leaving WWE after WrestleMania. His three-match deal has him competing at Royal Rumble, Fastlane, and the Show of Shows. The first happened, but the second hasn’t, which will be against Kevin Owens for the Universal Championship. We’re assuming that Goldberg wins and defends the belt in six weeks.
Like Lesnar’s reign in 2014, there would be controversy surrounding it. How long does he hold the belt? Will he disappear for months after winning, again? Who will dethrone him? It’s going to be a handful of questions that hopefully see most of them answered on the night after WrestleMania 33. If he’s going to be the champion but leave for a few months, then we’re going to see his previous title run repeated.
