5 potential opponents for Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble

#3 Big Cass

Could Big Cass ascend to the top, after returning from injury?

Right before he got injured, it was clear that WWE certainly had huge plans for Big Cass, as a top-level singles heel. Could he return from injury to reclaim the top spot?

The 7-foot tall giant is certainly a superstar who physically matches up to the Beast in terms of height and stature. He could be a believable opponent for Lesnar, at least for the casual fans, who want a real Goliath vs. Goliath sort of encounter.

Some have felt that while Big Cass is competent in the ring, he does not have the personality to be a top-level star. This problem can be easily amended by booking him with a manager.

Much like in the case of Bray Wyatt, Big Cass could lose at the Royal Rumble 2018 and still come off looking like a bigger star than ever because of this main event push.
