5 Mistakes That Could Bog Down Summerslam

#1 Brock Lesnar Remains Champion

Time for a New Paul Heyman guy?

Oh, The Horror!!

Look, we've had long reigns before as well, and we've also had boring reigns in the past, but this is now just getting into the nerves of everyone. Brock Lesnar has held the Universal Title for 489 days now. That's just 244 days less than the entire history of the title, and, in that period, he has only defended the title 5 times. 5 full times.

I mean, AJ Styles had more title defenses during the 1st month of his first reign. The thing is, Lesnar's Universal Title reign ran its course a long time ago, and it will only lead to a lot of hatred and loathing from the fans it continues beyond Summerslam next Sunday. It's time to cut it out, and Summerslam is probably WWE's last chance to do that before it's too late.

Have Roman finally defeat Lesnar at Summerslam for the title, Have either Owens or Strowman cash in on Reigns after that. Heck, even a MITB cash in on Lesnar after the match would be great for the future product.

But please, please don't let it be Lesnar walking out of Brooklyn with the Red Belt on his shoulder. It will bring down the whole show, the whole pay per view, and that would hurt the product more than anything else at this point.
