#1 The WWE Title returns to the main event

This is still the top belt in the company.

The WWE Championship, obviously, is the most prestigious championship in the company's history. It was the sole world title for decades and its legacy is undeniably larger than life. However, recent years have seen the title take a slight backseat in favor of RAW's Universal Championship. Part of this is because of Brock Lesnar dominating the Red Brand's main event scene for most of the belt's existence. The WWE Championship was reduced to semi-main events and midcard showcases.

This meant that the likes of AJ Styles, Kofi Kingston, and Samoa Joe among others would have some wonderful title matches, but remain on the undercard. Only one dual-branded pay-per-view has ended with a WWE Championship match since the return of the brand split in 2016. This would be set to change, with Lesnar at the helm. He is usually the biggest attraction of any show he is on, which would certainly mean at least one pay-per-view main event depending on his schedule.

After a solid but slightly underwhelming title reign for Kofi, it is time for the WWE Championship to return to its rightful place in the main event. Also, now that SmackDown will be the number one show, it's World Championship will be the one on top of WWE. The perfect man to make that transaction towards headlining again is Brock Lesnar.
