17 WWE Returns Confirmed For Raw 25th Anniversary Show

11. Brock Lesnar

'The Beast' and current Universal Champion was last seen getting wheeled out of Monday Night Raw following yet more carnage at the hands of Braun Strowman. Considering how laid-back Brock's been for most of this last run, it was a rather fitting way to depart the show.

Advertised for the celebratory occasion nonetheless, Brock will presumably head up the cast of characters at the Barclays Center, though a Godzilla-style charge through New York City between the locations to get his hands on either Kane or Strowman would make tremendous use of the double-venue device.
