#2. Daniel Cormier To RAW

Vince McMahon has a real appreciation for legitimate toughness. He recognizes and appreciates grit in those he associates with closely, as well as himself. That's also why UFC fighter Daniel Cormier is an instant attraction for the billionaire wrestling icon.

Cormier, a life-long WWE fan, was rumored to have been in attendance at last night's TLC. He has also been training at the NXT Perfomance Center in hopes of becoming the next big name WWE announcer. Could McMahon expedite Cormier's training and insert him into the RAW announce team sooner rather than later?

If Cormier's instant name recognition isn't enough of an incentive, how about the instant gratification one upping UFC President Dana White would bring McMahon? White has been trying to book a UFC fight between WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar and Daniel Cormier; but, thus far his best efforts have been fruitless.

White also recently announced that Cormier prefers to fight in the 205 pound division, which would eliminate the 300 pound Lesnar as a potential opponent. Could McMahon be bringing in Daniel Cormier to provide the bout that Dana White could not?

While Cormier's ultimate WWE future may be as an announcer, there's nothing that says Cormier can't have a UFC-esque WrestleMania feud with Universal Champion Brock Lesnar. Perhaps the two can meet in the squared circle before they ever meet in the octagon and it could all begin tonight on RAW.
