3 Things that could happen if Brock Lesnar becomes the WWE Champion

#1 More PPVs without the WWE Championship

Brock Lesnar barely made appearances on RAW while being the Universal champion.

Putting the strap on Brock Lesnar is a double-edged sword. The WWE Championship will become more prestigious - as we pointed out earlier - and the title matches will feel more special. However, we will have to pay a price for it.

Brock Lesnar has been notorious for skipping most of the PPVs and defending the title only when he wants to. Lesnar has been in bouts at the big 4 PPVs but has barely defended the title or made an appearance at the minor ones.

Lesnar has been the Universal Champion for more than 650 days across his three reigns. However, he has only defended the Universal Championship only for a handful of times. We will have to deal with the absence of the prestigious WWE Championship between major PPVs.

Lesnar's WWE Championship reign in 2014-15 is a major example. Lesnar defeated John Cena at SummerSlam 2014 to capture his first WWE Championship since making his return to WWE in 2012.

However, after his obligatory rematch against Cena, Lesnar did not defend the title till Royal Rumble in January 2015. We may see a repeat of this cycle if Lesnar is to become the WWE Champion on the inaugural episode of Friday Night SmackDown.
