#4 Good idea: Lesnar is a draw
The WWE Championship match between Kofi Kingston and Brock Lesnar will take place on the October 4, edition of SmackDown, and there's a good reason for that. That show will not only be the 20th anniversary of the blue brand since it's launch in 1999, but will also be SmackDown's debut episode on its new home on FOX Sports 1.
There's an old saying that you only get one chance to make a good first impression, and that certainly is the case with the SmackDown move. Already, the October 4 episode has been filled with legends and Hall of Famers, as the company is trying to bring in new fans with recognizable names of the past, as well as lapsed former viewers.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
In professional wrestling, there are few names bigger competing currently than Brock Lesnar, and The Beast's time in UFC has also made him a household name out of the squared circle. Though Kofi is known by every WWE fan around, he doesn't have the same main-stream brand as the Beast Incarnate, meaning a title change may be likely for SmackDown on FOX.
