Now here’s a big one.

Brock Lesnar hasn’t been seen since literally attempting to cave Randy Orton’s skull in at SummerSlam. While that show went off the air with Lesnar delivering an F5 to SmackDown Commissioner Shane McMahon, the angle has largely been brushed under the rug, and Lesnar has faced no significant punishment for his actions.

WWE are in dire need of major star power at the moment, and the Beast Incarnate remains their biggest special attraction. Though his contracted dates are limited, it’d be extremely wise to work him back into the fold at the moment, and would better way to add some last minute juice to Clash of Champions than a face-to-face showdown between Lesnar and one of the industry’s biggest ever stars?

Though The Rock’s own schedule makes this incredibly unlikely, it’s exciting to think about. The Rock vs. Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 33 would draw countless fans to watch the event, and while Rocky has largely been used to emasculate lesser talent in his more recent appearances (‘sup, Erick Rowan?), he wouldn’t be able to do that to Lesnar. Rock vs. Lesnar is a potential dream match: let’s hope it happens.
