WWE Draft: 5 reasons why Roman Reigns was SmackDown on FOX's first pick

#2 A potential contender for the WWE Championship in the future

Roman is one of the few people on SmackDown who have overcome The Beast

Brock Lesnar broke KofiMania in under 10 seconds last week upon his return to the SmackDown brand. Kofi Kingston had a good run with the WWE Championship, but his will and determination to extend his reign was no match for Lesnar's power and aggression.

Lesnar was faced by his biggest nightmare after his match and suffered a beatdown at the hands of Cain Velasquez. Cain now seems to have signed with the company and will be coming for Lesnar at Crown Jewel on October 31.

While the top Championship picture is now occupied, one must now forget that Reigns is one of the few men who have defeated Lesnar during their career. Since WWE wants to continue the dominance of The Beast, it is likely they won't want to increase the list of people who have overcome their biggest draw.

Therefore, Reigns could be the one to dethrone Lesnar, or whoever is the WWE Champion after a few months, as he has made a name and reputation for himself of overcoming the odds.

If Lesnar remains the Champion after Crown Jewel, then it will be best for him to lose the title to Reigns after some time so that the list of Superstars who've defeated him remains short.
