Page 2 - 4 ways WWE can use Brock Lesnar at Extreme Rules - Shock Ronda Rousey comeback, inciting rivalry with Samoa Joe?

#3 Cash-in against Kingston

Kofi Kingston has had a solid reign as WWE Champion ever since he won the title off Daniel Bryan and WrestleMania 35. He had been unbeaten as WWE Champion until Samoa Joe put him to sleep with a Coquina Clutch almost two weeks ago.

A week after that, Paul Heyman announced that Lesnar would cash in at Extreme Rules, only this time, he mentioned the name of Kofi Kingston. Could it be that after weeks of feuding against Rollins for the Universal Title and almost getting his hands on it again, Lesnar turns his attention towards the WWE Title?

It would certainly make sense because, after all, Lesnar is a heel and winning the title from a babyface Kingston will only put more heat on him. Also, since SmackDown is set to move to FOX from October – who have also advertised Lesnar as a part of the show – WWE could put the SmackDown exclusive title on the Beast (even though brand split might not be a thing anymore).
