10 Things To Expect From Brock Lesnar's Upcoming WWE Face Turn
6. Brock And Cena Tagging
If Paul Heyman were to put The Shield back together, the best idea would be to get an all-star tag team together in order to make a dream match for say, Extreme Rules. The Authority books The Shield versus Brock Lesnar and two partners of Lesnar's choosing. He selects Big Show and Kane at first (both of whom would be deemed expendable by The Authority after losing in their quest for the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal trophy), but they're both injured by The Shield. This of course leaves Daniel Bryan and yes, John Cena. Bryan is in, the "Yes! Yes! Yes!" moment that would end Raw would be amazing. Cena? Well, he's a harder sell as Brock talks about swallowing his ego to approach him and Cena, well, he'd be teaming with the guy who "suplexed him out of the main event." Of course, Cena says yes the night of the show after Daniel Bryan is laid out via a 3-on-1 Shield beatdown. Lesnar and Cena lose when Cena takes the pinfall, which leads to a cool side-story where Cena is trying to prove himself to Lesnar and the fans (plus maybe even also defeat Rusev for the US title, too).
