Despite losing the Universal Championship to Seth Rollins, Brock Lesnar put on yet another great match at SummerSlam and despite all of the criticism surrounding him, Lesnar is an unstoppable man when motivated to put on a top show.
His matches with Rollins, AJ Styles, Daniel Bryan, Finn Balor and others over the past few years have been great, and although he's not going to be around very often, there's still some room for potential classics from him on the roster right now.
While many people will criticize The Beast regardless of his actions, he's a great in-ring performer and with an all-time great roster right now, we hope he sticks around for a while. Here are five exciting feuds he should be a part of before he calls time on his career.
New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE
#5 Ali
205 Live may not be the most-watched show WWE produces right now, but the quality is incredible, and the Cruiserweight division has provided the main roster with three incredible performers in Cedric Alexander, Buddy Murphy, and Ali.
While all three of them are fantastic in the ring, Ali has the character and the promotion work as an underdog that would make a program with The Beast a spectacle.
While he'll need to be elevated quite a lot before this could happen, Ali has the talent and the personality to play the perfect underdog for Lesnar, and with his bumping ability, this could be a quality match. Right now, it's unlikely to happen, but if WWE allows Ali to continue his incredible social media promotions and use his innate ability to garner sympathy, this is one that simply has to happen.
#4 Bray Wyatt
The Fiend just made his in-ring debut against Finn Balor at SummerSlam, and although it was only a quick bout, we can already see him being a huge success for WWE. For the first time perhaps in the history of the company, WWE has someone who is actually creepy and genuinely frightening, and if he can harness that power against WWE's best, he will be a huge success.
Bray Wyatt has always been a main event player in WWE, and while they've never gotten behind him for some reason, The Fiend is truly an intriguing character that's worthy of the top spot. Lesnar has been an unstoppable Beast for quite some time now, so to see how he would react after The Fiend runs through the rest of the WWE roster would be great to witness, and it would be a phenomenal clash of unique performers that we need to see.
#3 Aleister Black
Aleister Black ran through the NXT brand during his time there, and although he hasn't exactly had all the momentum in the world on SmackDown Live, he's still an incredibly gifted performer with a great character.
Black carries an aura with him that few in the company can match, and despite the fact that he is quite a bit smaller than Brock Lesnar, he's a fantastic match and the mesh of character would be quite interesting.
Usually, it is Black that intimidates his opponents through his dark and mysterious aura, but Brock is intimidated by no man, so it would be quite enjoyable to see how that plays out. Ultimately, this one is probably the least likely on the list, but given how talented both men are, they could put together an incredible bout that would elevate the Dutch Destroyer to the main event level, as he is a potential future World Champion.
#2 Ricochet
As mentioned, Lesnar does his best work with smaller competitors, and right now, there's no one in WWE who can match the athleticism of Ricochet, and that gives him a big chance against The Beast.
Like Ali, Ricochet will have to be built up before this contest is believable, but given the work he's already done in NXT and on the main roster, it's clear that he's ready for any challenge the company can throw at him.
Ricochet looks like a million dollars inside the ring, and he is the best high-flier in the company, so if WWE can make him into a believable threat, he could give Lesnar a run for his money.
Despite all the criticism, there are plenty of fantastic Brock Lesnar matches in WWE, so that would be a hard list to top, but seeing the lengths Ricochet will go to make a mark, this could be an exciting clash.
#1 Drew McIntyre
Traditionally, Brock Lesnar's greatest matches have always come against smaller opponents that can bump around for him, but given how WWE see Drew McIntyre, it's only a matter of time until the two big men collide. While both men are absolute monsters, they're both very talented and skilled inside the ring, so not only would this be a top battle, it would feature two men who can work and tell great stories.
We've seen the likes of Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins having to overcome The Beast before they could break into the main event scene, and if WWE are serious about McIntyre, he could be next on Brock's list.
Ultimately, the Scottish Psychopath is going to do huge things in WWE regardless, but if he can have a hard-fought bout with The Beast (akin to Reigns vs. Lesnar at 'Mania 31), it will serve him better in the long run.
