2 Reasons why Brock Lesnar vs Cain Velasquez is a good idea and 2 reasons why it isn't

#1 Good idea: The hype behind the match

It is no secret that Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez are old rivals, meeting each other in a real fight at UFC 121. While Lesnar was the holder of the UFC Heavyweight Title, Velasquez was still undefeated. It was a highly anticipated bout, as the two behemoths locked horns in the Octagon. However, Lesnar failed to remain champion, losing to Velasquez by TKO in the first round. Velasquez won his first belt in UFC, and he managed to remain unbeaten.

Nine years later, WWE is recreating the same scenario at Crown Jewel, as Lesnar is the WWE Champion, and Velasquez is the new challenger. When they fought each other in the cage, the match was widely talked about, and UFC 121 was a successful pay-per-view.

It will be interesting to see if their match in the squared circle produces a similar outcome. Regardless of the result, the match will be one of the most highly anticipated of the year. 'The Beast' will be eyeing revenge for his previous loss in UFC. Velasquez, on the other hand, will be looking forward to making history by becoming WWE Champion on his very first try.
