I did a '5 Surprises for SmackDown Live' article for SmackDown Live before the show aired in which I speculated what was next for Kofi Kingston. The only challenger I could think of for Kofi Kingston was Andrade, after Randy Orton. Brock Lesnar came so 'out of nowhere' that I did not even assume that he would be a part of the mix at all.

Honestly, the same can be said for Lesnar as well, in a sense. I know that a draft is coming our way and the rosters will be mixed up, but I'm assuming that Rollins will still remain the face of the red brand, going forward. He will have a whole new pool of challengers and a reset in a sense on the blue brand.

It seems like Lesnar has only been feuding with Rollins since forever; so this is a mumuch-neededhange.
