Rumors and Possible Spoilers on Brock Lesnar’s Next 2 Challengers

As mentioned before, Brock Lesnar will be returning to WWE this summer to defend his Universal Championship at the inaugural Great Balls of Fire event. Rumors have been running wild about who may be facing Lesnar for the title at the event, but it looks as though we may have an idea of what’s to come. It looks likely that Braun Strowman and Finn Balor respectively will be challenging for the title in the upcoming months.
Braun Strowman defeated Roman Reigns at Payback this past weekend, and is now expected to face Roman Reigns one more time. They will likely fight in an ambulance match at Extreme Rules in May, a match that Strowman is rumored to win. Braun will then move on and face Lesnar for the title at Great Balls of Fire. WWE planted the seeds for this match when the two of them had a confrontation in the ring on the Raw after Wrestlemania last month. While it could make for a hard-hitting, fun battle, Brock Lesnar is expected to retain the title in this match.
Later in the summer, Brock is scheduled to face Finn Balor. Balor has been asking for a chance to fight Lesnar on television recently, some may remember that he was forced to vacate the title due to injury and never got a rematch for the belt. In the meantime, Balor will be feuding with Bray Wyatt, but it seems that WWE is just stalling until the summertime. “The Demon King” against Brock Lesnar is a big match that will likely be saved for a major show like SummerSlam in August. It’s worth noting that WWE is sticking to their plans to have Roman Reigns face Lesnar for the belt at Wrestlemania next year.
