Who do you think should be the next to have a shot at him?

Unfortunately, I don't see any of them on Brock's level. After the destruction of Cena at SummerSlam, I can't see anyone worthy of looking as a legit threat to Brock. I can't see Cena winning Sunday, and after that I can only assume that Brock will basically be fed guys to beat until they can build someone up enough to make their contender spot seem credible. Obviously it looks as if Roman Reigns is the heir apparent, but we will see.

I think Orton should be next and that's not anything to do with my love for him.

In kayfabe, he could claim he never got his rematch from WM with HHH giving it to him because of the authority link. He would lose to Lesnar though.

Bryan won't be back from injury and I don't really think anyone else is on his level right now.

Orton makes sense because of the rematch clause, but yeah, he'll lose of course. I suppose you could sell the match as Randy could hit the RKO on Lesnar out of nowhere and win, which isn't a bad angle at all. Big Show is another choice even though he was destroyed by Brock at the Rumble. Being able to legit knock anyone the fuck out with the WMD is also an easy sell.

Also wanted to mention that of all the names listed above, Wyatt should hardly be considered viable. He was just recently manhandled by the same guy that Brock manhandled to take the title. What threat could he possibly pose to Lesnar?

Wyatt isn't ready at all in my opinion, same with Reigns.

I don't think being basically squashed by Lesnar would help them at all either.

Yeah, that definitely wouldn't help either of them. Reigns is certainly not ready, it took everything Orton had to pull off a good (not even great) match at SummerSlam. If he works with the wrong guy, he'll be totally exposed and that'll set him back even further. Really should have kept him in some sort of tag team for awhile longer.

Yeah, I think Orton would be the next best choice probably considering he has the claim for that rematch he never got after WM. However, there would be no chance of him being the one to beat Brock which I think will be either Roman Reigns or a returning Bryan, I'd prefer the latter to be honest.

Orton is logical for reasons above.

His next big feud should be Bryan when back from Injury.

Think of it. He's already going to have I overcome the authority. But having to beat the Beast to win his titles back...possibly at WM?!? Pop through the freaking roof and Dollar Signs to boot.
