#1: Whoever dethrones him will get an enormous rub

You can make one thing for sure: whomever dethrones Brock Lesnar and takes the Universal Title off his waist will be a made man.
That wrestler will get a huge rub and will likely be the centerpiece of the WWE during the spring/summer months. It will provide WWE with a big storyline whenever it happens.

While many think it might eventually be Strowman who does it, don't be surprised if it's someone like Rollins or Drew McIntyre.
Creative is extremely high on both men and backstage rumors have suggested that McIntyre is in line for a huge push next year.
Could that involve a showdown with the Beast? He's constantly stated that a lot of people backstage are complacent and that he's back to win the Universal Title.
Vince has always been high on McIntyre and this could or could not be the start of Drew's ascension as a permanent main-event player. It would certainly be refreshing for a new face to win a major title.
Of course Rollins is also always a threat to win the Universal Title. He hasn't held that belt yet and is one of the most trusted performers on the roster.
He likely doesn't need the rub of beating Lesnar since he already had a run with the WWE Championship. Whether he does or does not dethrone Brock remains to be seen, but he will be one of the biggest heroes going forward if he does so.
Whether it's McIntyre, Rollins or someone else, the man who sends Lesnar 'packing' will be a hero to the fans.
