3 Things Brock Lesnar should not do if he returns and 2 things he should do

Brock Lesnar last wrestled in WWE at WrestleMania 36 against Drew McIntyre. The Beast put McIntyre over big time and hasn't been seen since on WWE TV. It was later revealed that Lesnar's contract had expired and he isn't a part of WWE anymore.

Brock Lesnar is one of the biggest Superstars in the history of this business. He is someone WWE would pay a huge sum of money to make a return, at some point in time. Lesnar's first WWE stint turned him into a legit megastar, and his second run surpassed it by miles. In the following slideshow, we will take a look at some interesting possibilities in regards to Brock Lesnar in case he returns to WWE somewhere down the line. We will take a look at three things he shouldn't do if he returns, and two things he should do.

#5 Brock Lesnar shouldn't have another reign of terror

Brock Lesnar as Universal Champion

Brock Lesnar's reign as the top Champion in the company was interesting at first, but there came a time when the WWE Universe got tired of him hogging the main event spot, especially when he didn't even appear on most of the shows. Many fans dubbed the better part of his reign as 'the reign of terror'. During his time at the top, Brock Lesnar used to miss several weekly shows in one go, as well as pay-per-views.

Brock Lesnar as the top Champion became monotonous pretty quickly

He used to come back for major events like WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, and a few others, and fans weren't pleased at all. This was a major reason (along with Seth Rollins' insane popularity at the time) why fans got behind Rollins like never before when he feuded with Lesnar on the road to WrestleMania 35, and finally dethroned him to win the Universal title. Fans popped again when Rollins did the same at SummerSlam 2019, and it was clear as day that they didn't want to see Brock Lesnar as the top Champion, leading to the top belt disappearing again from WWE TV. That's why if Lesnar returns, and ends up winning either of the big belts, he shouldn't have another long 'reign of terror', where he simply disappears with the belt for months on end.

#4 Brock Lesnar should target a bunch of top names in WWE

Bobby Lashley

It's about time we get some major dream matches involving Brock Lesnar if he decides to come back. Instead of having him wrestle the same old names that he has feuded with over the past five years or so, WWE should let Lesnar have some fresh new rivalries and get those out of the way before he decides to call it quits for good. WWE is building Bobby Lashley up slowly and steadily and is doing a fine job at it.

Bobby Lashley has been wanting a match with Brock Lesnar for a long time now

If Brock Lesnar returns, let him finally have a short-lived feud with Lashley, leading to a big dream match at one of WWE's top shows. Another name that Lesnar needs to target is The Fiend. This is a match that the WWE Universe would love to witness, simply to find out how the company presents the battle between two of the scariest entities in the company. Brock Lesnar has spent a long time feuding with the likes of Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins over the years, and it's about time we get some fresh rivalries if he comes back.

#3 Brock Lesnar should not turn face at any cost

The night Brock Lesnar turned babyface after Paul Heyman turned on him

There's a rare bunch of Superstars we have witnessed over the years, who simply don't work as babyfaces and are natural heels. Brock Lesnar is one of those guys and has spent almost the entirety of his WWE stint as a heel. He was turned babyface back in 2002-03, but the run didn't last long and he went on to turn on Kurt Angle to become a top villain again. If Brock Lesnar returns sometime in the future, he shouldn't come back as a good guy.

Brock Lesnar is a natural heel

Brock Lesnar is one of the most dangerous entities in all of WWE, and his mannerisms scream 'a ruthless, merciless villain' at all times. There's a reason why WWE presented him as a top heel throughout his stint on TV, minus a few exceptions. He just doesn't work as a good guy who would cut wholesome promos and shake hands with kids every time he comes to the ring. A fierce, unforgiving, uncontrollable beast? That's where all the money is when it comes to Brock Lesnar.

#2 Brock Lesnar should form a modern Two Man Power Trip with Roman Reigns

Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns have faced each other on various occasions, including two incredibly underwhelming WrestleMania main events. The first match was saved by Seth Rollins' MITB cash-in, but the second encounter at WrestleMania 34 was deemed one of the worst main events in the show's history. The last thing we want to see is another Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar rivalry, especially now that Reigns is a heel as well.

Reigns and Brock Lesnar in a Two Man Power Trip is money

Instead, WWE should take a page from its history and bring back an engaging storyline that worked back in 2001: The Two Man Power Trip. In 2001, Stone Cold aligned with Triple H and formed one of the most dominant teams in WWE history. The two wreaked havoc on the WWE roster for weeks on end, before losing the tag team titles to Chris Benoit and Chris Jericho, following which Austin cut ties with The Game. The idea of Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar forming a modern-day Two Man Power Trip and causing chaos on WWE TV every week is intriguing to say the least. Reigns vs. Lesnar has been done to death, and a short-term alliance between these two mega heels is something that would make for fresh and engaging TV. The alliance can be put to an end with a one-off match, or during the WWE Draft.

#1 Brock Lesnar should not turn on Paul Heyman

This is a mistake that has been done in the past, and it just simply didn't work in favor of Brock Lesnar. For the better part of his career, Brock Lesnar has been associated with Paul Heyman. Heyman turned on Lesnar at Survivor Series 2002, kicking off his babyface run. WWE hinted at a split between Heyman and Lesnar during his second run in the company as well. It became clear on both occasions that Heyman and Brock Lesnar are not to be separated at any cost.

Brock Lesnar and Heyman complement each other well

Brock Lesnar is one of the best athletes to ever step foot in a WWE ring, but he isn't exactly a master of the mic. That's where Paul Heyman comes into play. Heyman has been the mouthpiece of Lesnar for ages now, and always does an incredible job of putting The Beast, as well as his opponent, over before a major match. There isn't a need to put a stop to something that is working perfectly, especially when it has been evident in the past that it won't work well.
