Brock Lesnar successfully managed to defend his WWE Championship title against Rey Mysterio at Survivor Series. According to reports, he will be taking some rest from WWE. The reports also state that the Beast will make his comeback at Royal Rumble and could defend his WWE Championship at WrestleMania 36. According to TalkSport, WWE officials currently have two players in mind. 

The reports states that Beast may face either his UFC rival Cain Velasquez or boxer Tyson Fury at the greatest stage of all time. However, the match between Lesnar and Tyson Fury is not very likely to happen as Fury is scheduled to face Deontay in February. If Tyson Fury gets injured in the match, he may require some time to heal and train.
