#2 Lesnar's destruction story comes full circle

There's a big possibility that WWE will try to push Wyatt's new character as a replacement to another dark and mysterious Superstar, The Undertaker, whose best days are behind him. This is an amazing opportunity for WWE to bring Lesnar's tale of destruction to a full circle, and turn Wyatt into something big in the process.

Lesnar's monster push truly began when he defeated The Undertaker at WrestleMania 30, after which he squashed John Cena at SummerSlam 2014. He never looked back again and is now the most dominant Superstar on the roster.

The storyline could be structured around the fact that Lesnar beat an old Taker, but could he beat a young, and incredibly dangerous Fiend, someone who is as powerful as The Undertaker in his prime? This would be kind of poetic justice for Lesnar's character, who took advantage of an old Taker and broke his legendary streak.

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.
