#2 Good idea: The storyline involving Rey Mysterio and Dominic

The WWE Championship storyline has proven most captivating, as it has captured the attention of the WWE Universe. Besides Cain Velasquez and Brock Lesnar, Rey Mysterio and his son Dominic are also part of this rivalry.

It all started on the season premiere of RAW, when Rey Mysterio was supposed to face Universal Champion Seth Rollins. 'The Beast Incarnate' spoiled Mysterio's Universal Championship opportunity with a brutal assault. Rey's son Dominic, who was sitting ringside, received the brunt of Lesnar's aggression and left the arena in a stretcher. Dominic was rushed to the ER accompanied by his legendary father. The segment became the talking point of the show, especially since Rey Mysterio gave up his Universal Championship opportunity to be at Dominic's side.

Mysterio was banged up and couldn't get revenge himself, so he brought in UFC star Cain Velasquez. It was a perfect way to introduce Velasquez to the WWE Universe. Since Dominic was dismantled by 'The Beast,' it will be interesting to see if he assists Velasquez at Crown Jewel. Dominic is already training to follow in his father's legendary footsteps, and it will not be surprising if he soon makes his debut in the squared circle, especially considering that he is very much a part of this feud.


#1 Why It Isn't: Brock Lesnar already lost twice this year

There is no doubt that Brock Lesnar is one of the most dominant Superstars in WWE, however, 'The Beast' also suffered two losses in two gigantic pay-per-views this year. Given the fact that historically Lesnar loses so infrequently, 2019 has not been the best year for the WWE Champion.

'The Beast Incarnate' was the Universal Champion at the beginning of this year, but dropped the belt to Seth Rollins at WrestleMania. While he did win the Universal Championship back after cashing in the Money in the Bank briefcase, Lesnar inevitably lost the title to Rollins again at SummerSlam.

Lesnar has certainly gained some momentum after his dominating victory over Kofi Kingston, but his next opponent is a UFC legend who has already beaten him in a legitimate fight. Another loss against a legitimate opponent could diminish Lesnar as a dominant force in WWE.
