5 Candidates For John Cena's Next WWE Feud

2. Brock Lesnar

Since the last thing Brock Lesnar did in WWE was break The Undertaker€™s illustrious Wrestlemania undefeated streak, only highest profile booking will do for the €˜Beast Incarnate€™ upon his return to the company. In the modern landscape of WWE, and given Lesnar€™s current positioning as a heel, the most high profile booking essentially translates as a feud with the WWE World Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan, or the company€™s biggest star, John Cena. Lesnar and Cena have crossed paths at numerous stages of their careers, the most recent of which took place at Extreme Rules 2012. At that point, Lesnar had only just returned to the company amid amazing fanfare, yet Cena was booked to win the match and overcame the former UFC Champion on the night. Due to the brief nature of the feuds between the two in the past, another programme between Lesnar and Cena could be interesting, and it would be fascinating to see how the company go about reigniting this feud from a creative perspective. Once again, the Paul Heyman factor would no doubt prove a major contributor to the success of such a programme, such is his ability to enhance a talent or feud at any level of the card. With Lesnar€™s stock in WWE currently so high, his next feud will be absolutely pivotal for both his character and the company moving forward. Many are calling for Lesnar to be given a long run of victories, capture the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and ultimately drop it to the likes of a Roman Reigns or Cesaro at Wrestlemania XXXI. Whether WWE would be prepared to engage in one sided booking for such a period of time, especially given the protection they rightly give Cena and the fact the Lesnar is a essentially a part-time attraction, remains to be seen. However, the moment could well be just right for the two to lock horns once again.
