Wrestlezone’s Top 10: Predictions of 2013

January 1, 2013

Number 1: Brock and Rock will be World Champions

In 2012, the biggest draws were the returns of Brock Lesnar and The Rock. We knew for an entire year that Dwayne would fight John Cena, but we had no idea that Brock Lesnar would do the exact same a month later. When WWE signed Brock Lesnar to a big money contract with limited dates, many wondered if this was going to be financially feasible. It turned out to be the right call, with Extreme Rules buyrates higher, and Summerslam hitting new highs as well. Brock and The Rock will be a huge part of Wrestlemania 29, and from there anything is possible. I still believe that The Rock will become WWE Champion before Wrestlemania, but will Brock Lesnar carry the title? My answer is yes. Lesnar is still fresh to many people who did not watch professional wrestling during his first stint. Second, Lesnar is still a universally known name for his work in UFC. He came back because he wanted the money, he wanted the spotlight, and he will get the WWE Championship in 2013. I smell a Brock vs. Rock rematch from Summerslam 2002. As a fan, I simply cannot wait for that epic encounter.
