WWE Stomping Grounds: 10 Things That Must Happen

4. Brock Lesnar Is The Special Guest Referee

OK, maybe this is WWE's worst kept secret and not Alexa Bliss being a conniving little boot.

It was laughable to see creative try to convince fans that the likes of Eric Young and Shelton Benjamin might be the special guest referee for Seth Rollins vs. Baron Corbin on Sunday. It'll be someone high profile, and there's only one man for the job: Brrrrrrrrock Lllllllllesnaaar (read that Paul Heyman style).

Nobody else really works, do they? Why would it be anyone else? Lesnar is Mr. Money In The Bank, he's a Rollins hater and his character would rightly be surly that Seth has been going off on everyone, including him, with a steel chair recently. Plus, Corbin is the kind of git who'd stack the deck where possible against someone like Rollins.

It all just makes perfect sense that Brock will pull on a ref shirt (or, maybe he'll wear one of those Sid Justice/Elias tank tops) and try his damnedest to screw Seth out of the Universal Title. It'd be a major surprise if this didn't happen.
