With each of the alternate options, it is assumed that Lesnar will take his briefcase to a pay-per-view or the flagship show of Monday Night Raw, but what if he jumped ship onto SmackDown? Brock has not been on SmackDown since his 2016 program with Randy Orton, on the build to SummerSlam.

SmackDown will be broadcast on FOX from October and with that, WWE will want to kick things off on the new network with an exciting episode - what could be more exciting than a new champion being crowned?

The premiere episode of SmackDown on FOX should be memorable in many ways, with WWE wanting to please their new hosts by bringing high ratings each week. There are different options for WWE, should they decide to create a truly thrilling show on the blue brand, with none being more lucrative than the cash-in from Brock Lesnar.

All that is necessary for this to work is a babyface Kofi Kingston, retaining his Championship at every pay-per-view and occasionally on episodes of SmackDown, with Lesnar and Heyman teasing a cash-in every so often, keeping the idea fresh at the front of the minds of the WWE Universe. Along with a babyface Kingston, a monster heel Brock Lesnar would be required, as it would make the story more captivating, and all the more gut-wrenching when he eventually cashes in and steals the title away from Kofi.

There is no better place to cash-in than on SmackDown, as the focus would be on the move to FOX - drawing attention away from that and onto the action would be a perfect way to highlight SmackDown as vital watching for casual fans.
