Brock Lesnar faces off against Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at WWE Day 1 in just over two weeks' time. The Beast Incarnate has been seen as one of the most dominant forces in the company over the past decade, but Reigns could finally have his number.

With The Bloodline in tow, and with Paul Heyman on his payroll, The Tribal Chief seems to hold all the cards in his current feud with Brock Lesnar. That being said, Reigns has made enough enemies over the years, and there are still several superstars in the company who would be happy to help Lesnar's cause.

The following are just a few men who could align themselves with Brock Lesnar in order to overcome The Bloodline:


#8. WWE Superstar Sami Zayn could align with Brock Lesnar to help him defeat Roman Reigns

One of the best storylines on WWE TV over the past few weeks has centered around Sami Zayn and Brock Lesnar. The two men have had an interesting back and forth on SmackDown. This has led to Zayn losing his Universal Championship shot and then being attacked by The Beast Incarnate last week.

If it wasn't for Paul Heyman's interference, Sami Zayn and Brock were ready to leave the arena and go hunting together. This could still be on the table if Zayn is a forgiving person.

Zayn would also be a fantastic manager for Brock if WWE wanted to allow these two to continue to work together. The chemistry between them is undeniable and it shouldn't be overlooked by WWE, since many people didn't have that sort of energy with Brock Lesnar.

If The Bloodline make their return on SmackDown this week and Brock Lesnar needs some help to neutralize The Usos, it's easy to imagine that Sami Zayn could be in his corner.

Zayn wants his approval and whilst he's just as scared of Brock Lesnar as every other WWE Superstar, he also has an axe to grind with Roman Reigns, which could be enough for him to join forces with The Beast Incarnate.

#7/6. WWE Stars The New Day could align themselves with Brock Lesnar against The Bloodline

Brock Lesnar faces off against Roman Reigns at WWE Day 1, but The New Day face off against The Usos for the Tag Team Championships.

Over the past few months, The New Day has seemingly had the number of The Usos and could be called upon if they decide to involve themselves in Roman Reigns' business.

Brock Lesnar can obviously handle himself and normally there would be no need for him to have any help, but Reigns has been built as such a force on WWE TV on his own that The Beast Incarnate could use backup.

Since Reigns has been known to use The Usos to help balance several feuds in his favor, it's likely that they will be pulled into this story as well.

Given that Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods already have a feud set up with The Usos, they are among the most likely stars to help Lesnar. This would fit in well with the storyline and wouldn't require Lesnar to actually have to make friends.

#5. WWE official Adam Pearce is forced to align himself with Brock Lesnar to help against Roman Reigns

Brock Lesnar and WWE Official Adam Pearce have already crossed paths on SmackDown several times. Pearce was the man who suspended Brock Lesnar a few weeks ago and then went on to fine him $1 million. Lesnar was able to make his return and come face to face with Pearce last week, where he thanked the official for suspending him.

Brock even told him that the time away allowed The Beast Incarnate to hunt. He also revealed that he was able to kill Moose and name it after Pearce, which was apparently the way that he coped with his issues.

It was clear that Pearce was terrified of Lesnar and obviously, now there is a "higher power" in WWE, it would be interesting if they forced Pearce to align himself with Lesnar and help him overcome The Bloodline.

Pearce himself is a former wrestler who could step up to the challenge and given his fear of The Beast, it's hard to see him refusing.

#4/3. The Viking Raiders could align themselves with Brock Lesnar against The Bloodline

Brock Lesnar could call upon a current WWE Tag Team if he reaches the point where he needs help.

The Viking Raiders were drafted over to SmackDown as part of the most recent WWE Draft and are another team who would be open to making a statement against The Bloodline.

During their time on the main roster, Erik and Ivar have been overlooked in favor of The Usos several times and this could be their way of finding a path to a title shot.

Lesnar has also recently made his return to WWE looking like a Viking, which would allow him to fit in quite well with the team. Erik and Ivar are on the same wavelength as The Beast Incarnate and the trio would make the perfect stable since their characters are very similar.

It would be nice to see something other than The New Day vs The Usos in the tag title picture since this seems to be WWE's panic button feud in recent years. The Viking Raiders could breathe new blood into the title picture and could easily help Brock overcome the numbers game.

#2/1. Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benajmin could switch WWE brands to help Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar doesn't have many friends in WWE, but it's well-known that the former world champion has been close friends with Shelton Benjamin for his entire career. The two men have teamed together and lived together so it's hard to imagine Benjamin sitting by and allowing his friend to be put into a three-on-one situation.

Benjamin and Cedric Alexander have been working together recently as part of The Hurt Business, but it's become clear that Bobby Lashley no longer needs them.

The two men have been relegated to working on Main Event in recent weeks and could do with the boost that aligning themselves with Brock Lesnar would bring them.

It can't even be argued that the two men won't be able to because they were drafted over to RAW. However, since RKBro were on SmackDown last week, it appears that WWE has been allowing many stars to work across brands.

Benjamin is currently floundering on RAW so this would be a fantastic way for him to help his friend and himself.
