2. WWE Title: Brock Lesnar (c) Vs. Drew McIntyre

This one was made official when Drew McIntyre officially challenged Brock Lesnar on Raw, resulting in the WWE Champion nailing the new 'Big Sexy' with an F5 after the Scot's victory over Karl Anderson and Luke Gallows.

It was heavily signposted in the Royal Rumble too. McIntyre was the one to finally slay 'The Beast,' succeeding where 13 others had failed by Claymoring Lesnar out of his boots and out of the ring. Ricochet provided the assist via low blow, but it was McIntyre, not 'WWE's Resident Superhero,' who had the shine, and his momentum continued throughout a bout that eventually saw him lob Roman Reigns out to secure a cathartic Rumble victory.

McIntyre's long-rumoured main event push is finally underway. At WrestleMania 36, it'll take the form of a big beefy battle with the most believable pro-wrestling on the planet. We can't wait.

It'll be interesting to see Brock working with someone who is as big as he is after years fending off much smaller challengers. Regardless, betting against 'The Beast' in a big-match situation is never wise, provided this thing goes longer than five or six minutes...
