5 Opponents for Brock Lesnar after he returns to WWE

#1 Kofi Kingston

Brock Lesnar could challenge Kofi for the WWE Championship

What many might not know is that Brock Lesnar and Kofi Kingston have faced each other in WWE before. The two Superstars clashed at Beast in the East in 2015, which took place in Japan, and The Beast came out on top. Kingston is currently the WWE Champion, and with SmackDown Live moving to FOX in October, WWE needs a big name to carry the blue brand's top prize.

Brock Lesnar is a big name and he's a huge draw as well. Plus, he also competed in UFC, and with FOX wanting SmackDown to be more sports-oriented, this makes Lesnar the perfect person to carry the show. Putting the title on Lesnar and moving him back to the blue brand will be best for business. Lesnar has been on RAW for too long and there's nothing left for him on the red brand.

He had an impressive career on SmackDown in his initial run with WWE and he'll bring more eyes to the show if he makes his return to the brand. He might be a part-time champion, but whenever he returns, it'll be a big deal and fans will look forward to his next return all the time.
