#4 Braun Strowman
Yes, Braun Strowman has faced Brock Lesnar for the Universal Title on multiple occasions before, only to come up short in his efforts to slay The Beast. However, Strowman's most recent loss to Lesnar, which came at WWE Crown Jewel on November 2nd, wasn't a "clean" one, so to speak.
Before their matchup got underway, the Acting General Manager of Monday Night RAW, Baron Corbin, viciously attacked Strowman with the Universal Title belt from behind -- dinging The Monster Among Men in the back of his head! Needless to say, Brock Lesnar, ever the opportunist, jumped on Strowman, and after a sickening barrage of F5s, pinned Strowman.
Make no mistake about it though, Strowman is still one of the brightest talents on the RAW roster today, and a loss to Lesnar which was marred by "Outside Interference", didn't really hurt his brand all that much.
Nevertheless, I'd like to emphasize that I still rate Drew McIntyre's chances of winning the Universal Title, higher than that of Strowman, because the professional wrestling rumor mill has lately been abuzz with talks about a potential Wyatt Family reunion -- which could seriously hurt Strowman's chances of continuing his singles run and winning a major world title...
