WWE Top Five Rumors of the Week and Analysis: May 1, 2017

Heyman to get a new client?

#1 Jeff Hardy to feud with Brock Lesnar

An unlikely rumour poked up this week

The Rumour: Sports Rageous is reporting that WWE could be planning a feud between Jeff Hardy and Brock Lesnar in the near future. It also notes that the Hardy Boyz could be splitting up soon.

The Potential: Jeff Hardy going up against Brock Lesnar is a long shot. We know how good Jeff is, but he is a long way from a match with Brock Lesnar. The immense potential of the Broken gimmick is yet to be explored by WWE, so Matt and Jeff should remain as a tag team. Going on a singles run is not going to benefit anyone.

The Fallout: WWE could book Jeff Hardy vs. Brock Lesnar for a Live event, but anything beyond that is unlikely to happen. A program between Jeff and Brock might sound good on paper but is bound to fail in execution.
