    Its kind of a waste of everyones time if he'a doing both, he won't be fully committed to either. He can't chase the UFC belt on a one off but obviously both McMahon and White think he's enough of an attraction to make huge dollars with no stakes.

    Its quite comedic that Lesnar while under WWE contract will fight in UFC before CM Punk does though.

    CM Punk should be his opponent.

    That would break every buy-rate record they have.

    If he gets destroyed, how do you build him has a monster in the WWE?

    Who does WWE have on their roster that would make you believe they can beat the piss out of Lesnar the same way UFC's heavyweights could?

    You bring out Kevin Owens who shits all over Lesnar for being a joke. You build Lesnar as not taking Owens seriously and you actually have Owens beat him at Summerslam. A few months later, Lesnar comes back to get his revenge and has his full caveman beard going on. BAM. Monster is back.

    That would be amazing.

    As for those that could believably challenge Lesnar on pure physicality.......correctly built John Cena, Cesaro, surely Randy Orton, Reigns, maybe Gallows, Big Cass, maybe Big E.

    His rumored UFC opponent Mark Hunt (5-10, 265) is far less physically imposing than even Bray Wyatt.

    I mentioned Owens because I think he could 100 percent hang with Lesnar. He doesn't have that muscle-bound look but, man, Owens can go.

    As others have pointed out, you don't have to. It might actually refresh his character for a bit - Have him take some losses, have him look human and vulnerable, have Heyman shitcan him. Then, he's gone for a few months, and he comes back as the beast. Like schiezainc suggests, have him grow out a big effing beard, and just acting over-the-top aggressive. I wouldn't even put him in matches for a few months - Just have him beat the shit out of people backstage and destroying property, like he's actually someone the WWE can't control.
