5 most likely candidates to take the WWE Championship from Brock Lesnar

#2 The Fiend

The Fiend is just as dominant on SmackDown at this point in time, as Lesnar is on RAW. One has to imagine that these two forces of nature are headed for a collision course, somewhere down the line. So let's just assume that The Fiend loses his Championship at WrestleMania but Brock Lesnar manages to retain his title.

The two men could certainly be a part of the same brand thereafter and this could lead to a collision of these two mammoths for the WWE Championship. I can totally imagine The Fiend becoming the WWE Champion and sending Brock Lesnar packing away after WrestleMania. It would start a very interesting storyline that could be resolved later in the year.

It is impossible to predict how a match between these two men will actually play out, which is what makes the contest so awesome and so very must-watch, in my opinion.
