#1. A potential Cain Velasquez vs Brock Lesnar feud

WWE may not allow Rey Mysterio to defeat Brock Lesnar clean. Even if Rey Mysterio were to overcome 'The Beast,' he would likely require some additional assistance. Mysterio could use some help from his "family" member Cain Velasquez.

At WWE Crown Jewel 2019, Brock Lesnar defeated Cain Velasquez in a WWE Championship match. Lesnar made Velasquez tap out to the Kimora Lock. However, since WWE signed Velasquez in a multiyear contract, we might see more of the former UFC Heavyweight Champion in WWE.

Velasquez was not officially drafted to any of WWE's three brands, so we could see 'Cardio Cain' join Brock Lesnar and Rey Mysterio on the RAW roster. At Survivor Series, we could see Velasquez play a huge role in costing Lesnar the WWE title.

Fifteen years ago, another Mexican WWE legend, Eddie Guerrero, defeated Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship in a similar manner. Guerrero was aided by none other than Bill Goldberg, who speared Lesnar when the referee was knocked down. Guerrero captured the WWE Championship while Lesnar and Goldberg went on to have a grudge match at WrestleMania 20.

Similarly, if Mysterio defeats Lesnar with a bit of help from Velasquez, we could see a grudge match between Lesnar and Velasquez at the upcoming Royal Rumble or even at WrestleMania 36.
