#3 Brock Lesnar returns to RAW

If Brock Lesnar wins the WWE Championship, he will almost certainly become a member of the SmackDown roster in the upcoming draft, which means he will no longer be required on Monday nights.

With that in mind, it would be typical of Paul Heyman to take advantage of this milestone moment by recapping some of Lesnar’s greatest RAW accomplishments on what could potentially be his final night on the show for several months, or even years.

Then, just as the Executive Director of the red brand is set to give a “spoiler” that Lesnar will win on Friday, perhaps we could see all three members of The New Day join forces to attack the three-time Universal Champion.

Despite the trio’s statuses as babyfaces, it would only take one derogatory comment from Heyman – say, if he claims Lesnar is capable of defeating Kofi Kingston, Big E and Xavier Woods at once – to provoke the three men into getting involved in a brawl with Lesnar.

That could allow the #1 contender to take out Big E and Woods before getting caught out of nowhere by Kingston’s Trouble In Paradise.

Granted, this would be a somewhat underwhelming way to build to the WWE Championship match, but there needs to be some kind of sign that Kingston could win on Friday, which is where his fellow New Day members come in.

Prediction: Kofi Kingston stands tall after interrupting Brock Lesnar
