Even though WWE usually shies away from heel vs. heel matches, I have a feeling that, in this case, McIntyre vs. Lesnar may be the perfect bout. And this is because unlike the other Superstars I've mentioned, who're all feuding with someone or the other, this is a man who's doing nothing at all.
This week on RAW, Drew McIntyre made really short work of Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins in a very predictable match. It would make a lot more sense to have Drew McIntyre in this position, even if he were to come up short than to have him at the Royal Rumble and here's why.

There's no chance that Drew McIntyre is winning the Royal Rumble this year, of course. Therefore, it makes a lot of sense to put him in the spotlight than to make him another body that gets tossed out in the Royal Rumble.
McIntyre vs. Lesnar is a believable match and I can totally imagine the former striding out to cut a promo on the WWE Champion.
