Does this guarantee that Brock will not lose the Universal Champion before their fight in November? Nobody is giving him a chance in hell against Cormier, but if he does somehow win and walk out with both the WWE and UFC world titles, it would be massive for WWE. Would they pass that opportunity up at the expense of the Raw title scene for the next 6 months?

Or do you have him lose at Summerslam and save the title scene since everyone thinks he'll be eviscerated in his UFC fight anyway? I'm not really sure what they are going to do. But at least something interesting is finally happening with Brock.

They might as well strip Brock of the Universal title at this point. His title reign has been shit, the title has no prestige, fans have turned on Brock anyway, and he comes off as a lazy bum now instead of an unstoppable badass. I'm not sure he even has a rub to give in wrestling at this point. If Rollins pinned him clean in five minutes, I doubt he'd be any more over than if he found the belt in the trash and named himself champion.

The difference between Lesnar's long reign and Okada's recent reign is staggering. If someone has held the title for over a year, it should mean more when he loses it, not less.

lol DC calls out Lesnar then himself gets shoved, then tells Lesnar to leave.

Not sure who should win (Cormier, for his experience?) but Lesnar being UFC and Universal champion would much prestigious for Vince but the fact Lesnar's barely around doesn't do anything for that opportunity. If he had been active and had they developed his persona and ringwork more than Suplex City, having ownership of two titles could have been huge.

Does Lesnar actually stand a chance at winning?

Cormier is better in every possible metric aside from size and raw power. Unless Lesnar donkey kongs him from the opening second, his chance of winning is slim at best.

I have my doubts that Lesnar will pass a drug test and make it to fight night anyway. I won't get hyped until they're actually in the cage opposite each other.
