Brock Lesnar shocked the world when he won the Money in the Bank Ladder match at the titular PPV two weeks ago. Lesnar made a surprise return at the event entering himself as Raw's unannounced 4th entrant in the bout, taking Sami Zayn's place after the latter got taken out earlier that night.
The Beast Incarnate retrieved the contract after taking out Ali, who was just inches away from winning the match. Lesnar capitalized on the opportunity while all the other original contestants took each other out, winning the MITB contract for the first time in his career.
Lesnar was supposed to reveal on whom he would cash in the contract on last week’s episode of Raw. But Mr. Beast in the Bank had other plans after finding out he had a whole year to make that decision.
Trending
Stephanie McMahon announced the McMahon family would meet up to decide how to "take action" against Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman after their actions last week.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
Shortly after WWE released the video Lesnar's advocate Paul Heyman took to Twitter to announce Lesnar would be cashing in the MITB contract on this week's episode of Raw, tagging Stephanie McMahon and Seth Rollins on the tweet.
Tagging Rollins in the tweet could imply Lesar could cash in for the Universal Championship. But what if Lesnar had other ideas and cashed in on Kofi Kingston instead?

#4 Could mean the end of Kofi's title reign
Kofi Kingston made history when he became the first African-born WWE Champion when he defeated Daniel Bryan to win the title at WrestleMania 35 after 11 years with the company.
Since then Kofi has defended the title against the likes of Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and AJ Styles. He even competed in a title vs. title match against Universal Champion Seth Rollins, which ended in a disqualification.
But Kofi's fairy tale title reign could have an anti-climax at the expense of the Beast Incarnate.
The ratings for SmackDown Live haven't been so good since Kingston won the title at WrestleMania as the show hit the lowest viewers in history on the May 14th episode drawing only 1.82 million views.
So if WWE pulls the trigger with Lesnar cashing in for the WWE Championship, it could mean Kofi Kingston could kiss the title goodbye.
#3 SmackDown Live could have more star power when it moves over to FOX
WWE signed a 5-year deal worth $205 Million per year with FOX on June 2018 to air SmackDown Live on their network from October 2019.
The blue brand will move to Fridays starting from October 4th, 2019, and will air live on Fox.
FOX has been vocal with WWE to increase their ratings of SmackDown Live before the show moves over to their network. That could be the reason behind Roman Reigns getting drafted to the SmackDown on this year’s superstar shake-up.
But things haven’t changed a bit for the show as it still struggles to maintain a decent rating. Having Brock Lesnar on the roster when the show moves to FOX could be a real boost for the blue brand as it could open the door for a potential clash between a man who is to make his SmackDown debut this Tuesday.
#2 A potential clash with Goldberg
We might think we may have seen the last of Goldberg and Brock Lesnar after the latter was victorious in their previous match at WrestleMania 33. But Goldberg still has the Beast Incarnate's number, and the two might not be finished with each other yet.
Goldberg will make his SmackDown Live debut on this week’s episode when he returns to address the Undertaker before their match at Super Showdown.
If Brock Lesnar successfully cashes in of Kofi on Raw, the chances that we may get to see the revival of this feud is very high. But Goldberg needs to focus on the Undertaker first as the two superstars will take on each other for the first time at WWE Super Showdown.
We will have to wait to see what unfolds when the greatest champion in WCW history makes his return this Tuesday.
#1 A Seth Rollins vs Roman Reigns match at Survivor Series
If Brock Lesnar does win the WWE Championship and moves over to SmackDown Live, an old foe will be waiting for him to take the gold away from the Beast.
Roman Reigns is also a part of SmackDown Live, and we know the history between the Big Dog and Brock Lesnar. If the two superstars end up in the same brand, it’s inevitable that these two would come to blows.
If Seth Rollins could hold on to the Universal title till November and Roman Reigns ends up dethroning Lesnar, WWE could pull the trigger on an epic encounter between the last two Shield brothers at this year’s Survivor Series.
All these are just speculations, but it could happen if the Beast Incarnate chooses to cash in on Kofi Kingston on this week’s episode of Raw. We must wait to see what transpires this Monday.
