Orton would be good. And would be a refreshing change. The only problem I see is with Orton & Brock both returning soon, neither can really afford the loss. But then again, if Brock loses at UFC:200, I wouldn't be surprised if Vince makes him lose at SummerSlam too.
I just hope to god it's not Big Show.

That is gonna be the most predetermined UFC fight ever in the history of UFC fights. I also find it funny that in UFC world, you have to wait so long after a fight, and Brock will be wrestling at SummerSlam so soon to his fight. Which to me just shows that UFC probably isn't as real as it seems, and they make it seem way more legit by having fighters 'wait a while' to fight again when WWE guys will go at it every night.

I think it will end up being either Bray Wyatt or Randy Orton, I feel like WWE wouldn't have Kurt Angle's return to WWE announced on a taped edition of Smackdown, but, that being said, I could see this happening!

My way of thinking is - if they're going to announce Lesnar's opponent and not have a build up feud, it must be a big deal. Angle for me, is SmackDown - so in a warped way, it could make sense. .... Pr-pr-probably.

I would like to see Orton, however I wonder with his effed up shoulders, how many german suplexes could he possibly take before legit being injured again?

I've said it before, and I'll say it again now - I don't think Orton's coming back. I hope I'm wrong - but he just seems to be at a point now where he's unofficially retired.

Given that Hunt is an absolutely ferocious striker... I think Brock could be looking at totally missing SummerSlam, personally. 6 weeks is a pretty solid amount of time to recover, even from a concussion, but unless Brock just takes Hunt early with some great ground and pound, he's going to take head damage. I honestly think there is a seriously strong chance that Brock gets knocked out in the first round. I guess we'll see. I think WWE is high for trying to promote him for the SummerSlam card this early when they could just as easily wait until after next weekend to see what happens. I think Orton is going to be his opponent. That is a match I've been dying to see for years. So hopefully it happens and hopefully we don't get all that Suplex City bullsh*t. F-5 into the RKO for the win.

I was quite thinking the same for promoting him this early. Hopefully win or lose he's able to compete at Summerslam but in all seriousness if I were WWE I would have waited to see the outcome before I made a decision about announcing Brock. Worst case scenario I would have pushed his match back to Survivor Series if needed.

This really bugs me. WWE is trying to create some Lesnar-buzz for themselves right before his UFC fight, which they have still failed to mention on air. In Vince's mind he probably believes the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT of his opponent at Summerslam will trump his UFC fight. WRONG. There is no feud? No story? Just throwing an opponent out there like "here it is, this is a HUGE match, get excited! No explanation! Take it and like it!" What about the draft? Wouldn't this announcement make more sense after the draft is over? This all seems very shady to me and illogical. WWE is so childish that they would purposely not mention Brock's fight on air prior to the fight because they don't want to give UFC any business, but if Lesnar won that's all you'd hear about during Raw. They are total hypocrites.
BTW, he might not be able to compete following his fight, just a possibility. Dumb move by WWE.

We want Orton.. But we're gonna get either Big Show or Kane. Let's be honest here. We're not gonna get KO vs. Lesnar, we're not gonna get Cesaro vs. Lesnar, we're not gonna get Dolph Ziggler vs. Lesnar. They're just not believable. The only believable opponents left for Lesnar who aren't "Big men" and wouldn't have to face him in say an Extreme Rules match or a Street Fight, are Orton, Sheamus, and Ryback. Sheamus has been a bitch since he's turned heel so unless they build him up and have him taking out anyone and everyone. We know how it's gonna go. Ryback is nowhere to be seen. So that just leaves Orton.

If there is ever a chance to do Brock Lesnar vs Randy Orton then Summerslam this year has to be it. The feud won't need any back story or plot. Orton doesn't need to win at this point in his Career. The Match is simply about seeing them two have a Match, with Lesnar fresh off of his UFC Fight & Randy Orton returning. They are both on similar paths at the current time, so there's no need for creative to have to try and think up a feud between Lesnar and someone. It makes perfect sense at this point in time.
I'd then have Brock Lesnar vs Kevin Owens or AJ Styles at Wrestlemania 33.

I'm hoping for Orton. They were both products of that stacked 2002 OVW call up and outside of a random SD match, never did anything with each other.
