WWE Crown Jewel: 3 Reasons why Brock Lesnar will retain his WWE Championship

#2 Cain Velasquez's inexperience in the ring

Cain Velasquez is undoubtedly a UFC legend, however, he is inexperienced in the world of professional wrestling. With his in-ring wrestling career beginning only months ago, Velasquez has only participated in two matches so far (both for AAA Wrestling). Yet, he's still challenging for the WWE Championship at Crown Jewel. Even if we assume that Velasquez would win the title in Saudi Arabia against one of the most dominant Superstars in WWE history in Brock Lesnar, a question comes to mind. How would he even work as a champion?

Velasquez hasn't spent a lot of time in the ring and has shown that he isn't exactly stellar at cutting promos. This makes for a less than ideal world champion.

The former UFC Champion is the babyface in this rivalry and an early title victory in WWE could also turn the fans against him, as some still consider him an undeserving 'outsider'. It would be wise if Velasquez spends some time in the ring and garners more experience before challenging for the WWE Championship again. This way a potential championship win will seem legitimate and the fans won't have a negative reaction. We'll have to wait until Crown Jewel to see if Vince McMahon feels the same way.
