5. Who will face Brock Lesnar at Royal Rumble?

Almost a month ago, we were all lead to believe that Finn Balor would finally get his shot at the Universal title, which he never lost at Royal Rumble. The WWE universe was eager to witness the Demon take the fight to the Beast Incarnate. However, plans changed for reasons known only to Vince McMahon and we still don’t know who Lesnar’s opponent is.

This week, out of the blue WWE declared that the winner of Strowman Vs Kane match would be the number one contender for the Universal title. The winner would face the Beast Incarnate at Royal Rumble. My mind automatically went to Strowman. There should be no second thoughts about him defeating Kane, and ending this horrible feud once and for all. However, creative had other intentions. These two monsters fought to a draw, courtesy of a count out finish.

So now, the big question is who will face Lesnar. It seems more than likely that we will get a triple threat match at the Rumble. For starters it will ensure Strowman remains protected and Lesnar retains the title. But tell me this WWE universe, would you rather watch Kane and Lesnar compete in the ring for the first time or Balor and Lesnar in the ring for the very first time? Creative needs to get their priorities right.
