WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross recently took to his blog at JRsBarBQ.com to discuss a number of wrestling-related topics.
One topic of discussion that peaked many a curiosity was his idea for CM Punk to challenge Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the main event of WrestleMania 31.
I wonder what the chance would be to see a CM Punk vs. Brock Lesnar WM31 WWE Title Bout? Stranger things have happened and that pairing would guarantee WWE a ton of new subscribers and likely ignite the PPV marketplace as well. Communication and money solve many ills and that would be a terrific main event considering that as it stands today WWE has major work to do in assembling what looks to be more of an ensemble card than one that is one or two main event heavy at this time. I’m sure that I’m not alone in wanting to see a Lesnar-Punk headliner at WM31 because it equates to big money for all involved.
Lesnar defeated Punk in their one and only meeting at WWE “SummerSlam” in 2013 in what was widely recognized as one of the best bouts of the year.
Punk has been away from World Wrestling Entertainment since “Royal Rumble” in January after walking away from his contract.

Yes please! This is the WrestleMania 31 main event that could get WWE back on the winning path.
