The Beast Incarnate has won the WWE Championship title last week and has the highest probability of joining the blue brand.

WWE might use Cain in their storyline but there have been no confirmed reports about Velasquez’s full-time WWE entry. Brock Lesnar lost his Universal title against Seth Rollins at SummerSlam and it seems that the Beast has found his new title run.

After a controversial defeat against Becky Lynch at Clash of Champions, it was assumed that Sasha Banks will get RAW Women’s championship belt around her waist at Hell In A Cell.
