Since Crown Jewel 2019, wherein Cain Velasquez tapped out to Brock Lesnar in just over two minutes, WWE has built some solid Superstars who are doing well.

We’ve watched Lesnar jump from SmackDown to RAW since then to hunt down Rey Mysterio, and then make the brand his home again. The Red brand has some strong Superstars on its roster waiting to get a shot.

Unlike Velasquez, who still needs a lot of grooming in the ring, the fans are looking for someone who has already put in the hard work and needs to get a solid match against The Beast.

Last year, we watched Finn Balor and Seth Rollins give Lesnar some of the best matches of his current tenure and reminded fans that Lesnar is much more than just squash matches when booked right.

With that in mind, the WWE Universe deserves to get better matches out of the WWE Champion, who has lived on squash victories for most of his career.

Several Superstars need to go toe-to-toe with him and give him a run for his money even if they end up losing. And to make this happen, WWE needs to give the men who they've built up a chance rather than someone who they’ve picked from outside the industry.
