10 Ways To Book Brock Lesnar As WWE Champion 4

4. Step Seven – Batista Title Defence, Royal Rumble

After Batista’s return at the start of this year flopped, it may not please most if the Animal returns at the beginning of next year and again moves straight in to the title picture. His work promoting Guardians of the Galaxy should be over with soon enough and providing no other Hollywood offers interfere, Batista could return towards the back end of 2014.
While if possible he should be given a build up rivalry to dip his feet in the water and get into ring shape, there are not many other guys on the roster at the moment that are worthy opponents for Lesnar. This potential match up doesn’t need either man to take a specific role, and it can instead be built as ‘Animal vs Beast’ – in a clash of two of the best heavyweights seen in the business over the last fifteen years.
It’s not very often you see Batista man-handled, but it would be the perfect way to set a fire underneath Lesnar pre-Mania if he can throw a man of Batista’s size around like a rag doll. Obviously, Lesnar should go over in convincing fashion and not be seen again on television until the weeks leading up to WrestleMania.
