#1 Lesnar to drop title at SummerSlam

LesnarWWE — Lesnar could drop the WWE Universal Title in order to focus on the UFC

The Rumour: Cage Side Seats suggests that Brock Lesnar might drop the WWE Universal title at SummerSlam.

The Potential: The chances of Lesnar dropping the title at SummerSlam are high since it is a fatal-four-way match. According to the stipulations, WWE can take the title away from Lesnar without him being pinned or submitted. This way, they can keep him protected. Also, Lesnar will be freed up for a potential super fight with Jon Jones in the UFC.

The Fallout: With a super fight against Jon Jones being discussed, the door to the UFC could be wide open for Lesnar. As he might have to prepare for the fight, dropping the title and freeing up his schedule would be the right move to make.
