#4 WWE needs Brock Lesnar now more than ever, and his Royal Rumble victory would be an incredible way to kick off the Road to WrestleMania 37

WWE needs a big name like Brock Lesnar, as WrestleMania 37 is approaching closer every week. Lesnar hasn't been a part of WWE TV for almost a year now, and ratings for WWE RAW have become quite embarrassing at this stage.

Brock Lesnar is one of the biggest draws in WWE history

Brock Lesnar has proven time and again that WWE fans love to see him on their TV screens. His major mainstream appeal helps WWE garner views from casual fans as well as the ones who don't watch WWE at all.

The Road to WrestleMania 37 will kick off at the 2021 Royal Rumble event, and WWE would benefit from Brock Lesnar's presence on their shows for the entirety of this year's WrestleMania season.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
