5 Dream opponents for Brock Lesnar in All Elite Wrestling (AEW)

​

Could Brock Lesnar sign for AEW?

A recent string of rumours suggests that WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar could be considering leaving WWE and signing for All Elite Wrestling. However, AEW fans, I'm sorry to disappoint you but I have to reiterate at how unlikely Lesnar signing for AEW is.

WWE is reportedly so concerned by the departure of Dean Ambrose that they're actively trying to re-sign every Superstar whose contract is coming up soon because they don't want their stars to leave for the competition.

Brock Lesnar is easily one of the most protected Superstars in WWE history and he has a WWE huge contract which also comes with limited dates. There's no way WWE and Vince McMahon would make Lesnar go and it's most likely that Brock could use these rumours to his benefit and get himself a new contract for even more money.

Dave Meltzer also spoke about how unlikely Vince McMahon letting Lesnar go is on Wrestling Observer Radio:

“I believe that Vince will pay anything not to lose Brock because we’ve seen it with UFC and I think it will be even stronger with AEW. Brock’s number is so high but who knows? Who knows, it would be a coup. Put it this way, Chris Jericho wants a match with Brock Lesnar and Chris Jericho has a lot of sway. That doesn’t mean a deal is gonna be done that’s a stupid deal but who knows.”

Despite Brock Lesnar leaving the WWE being very unlikely, let's take a stab at fantasy booking and look at 5 dream matches for 'The Beast' in AEW:

​

#5 Jungle Boy

​

If you've never seen 'Jungle Boy' Jack Perry's work you really need to check it out. He's made waves on the independent circuit over the last couple of years before AEW snapped him up.

Perry has everything needed to be a great underdog babyface and what better way for that than a short match against 'The Beast'. Lesnar has had some of his most entertaining matches against smaller guys and a match could establish Jungle Boy as one of All Elite's top underdogs.
