How many nightmares can the Beast incarnate survive?
Two weeks ago, Brock Lesnar ended Kofi Kingston’s dream run as the WWE Champion to get his hands on the title. But his celebration didn’t last for long. Lesnar came face to face with his nightmare, Cain Velasquez, who dethroned ‘The Beast’ as the Heavyweight Champion in UFC.

Velasquez was introduced to the WWE Universe by Rey Mysterio to avenge the brutal attacks laid on the latter’s son in the previous week. Now, Velasquez and Lesnar are set to lock horns at Crown Jewel 2019.
Given Velasquez’s limited history in pro-wrestling, Lesnar is expected to retain his title. Once he has successfully defended his championship in Saudi Arabia, he could be the best possible opponent for ‘The Fiend’ following the pay-per-view.

It will be a perfect opportunity for WWE to introduce Bray Wyatt in the WWE Championship title picture. Even better, he can walk away with the title on his shoulder – something that the entire WWE Universe is desperately hoping for.
Losing to ‘The Fiend’ will not make Lesnar look weak, making it a win-win situation for everyone. Hopefully, WWE seize this opportunity because they need something to ensure that people forget the disastrous ending The Fiend’s HIAC title match.
