Mustafa Ali was once just an overlooked member of 205 Live, but in the past year, he's built himself into one of the most versatile performers in the WWE, and he's about to be rewarded for it.

He's already been promoted to SmackDown Live, and he's easily the most likable performer in the WWE at this point, so a meeting with the dominant Lesnar would make his career.

It's clear that the WWE see Mustafa in the same vein as Daniel Bryan from 5 years ago, and a bout with Brock Lesnar would cement his spot as the WWE's top babyface further. The Heart and Soul is still unproven as a main event talent, so following WrestleMania 35 we will no doubt see him given a chance to perform at the top level, and if he can succeed, a bout with Brock Lesnar on the way to a top championship makes complete sense.
