Brock Lesnar is undoubtedly one of the most dominant pro wrestlers to have ever competed inside the squared circle. He had two tremendous runs in WWE, both of which resulted in him winning major World Championships and being a huge draw for fans. Brock Lesnar has been absent from WWE television ever since he dropped the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36 last year. Brock Lesnar was also previously called out by a Superstar from Monday Night RAW.
Brock Lesnar made his return at WWE SummerSlam and then appeared on a previous episode of Friday Night Smackdown and confronted Roman Reigns for a WWE Universal Championship match, which he eventually accepted.
The two were set to square off against each other at WWE Crown Jewel for the WWE Universal Championship on October 21st in Saudi Arabia. At the event, Brock Lesnar ended up losing the match after interference from The Usos and Roman Reigns using the WWE Universal Championship to hit Lesnar in the head.
At WWE Day 1, Brock Lesnar won the WWE Championship after defeating Big E, Kevin Owens, Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley in a Fatal Five-Way match. This is because Roman Reigns could not compete at the pay-per-view and face Brock Lesnar because he tested positive for the virus.
Ric Flair recently spoke on the Wooooo Nation UNCENSORED, where he defended Brock Lesnar earning a lot of money with his WWE contract.
They like to believe in somebody. I mean, as a babyface, you can look at Brock Lesnar, not only because he’s a phenomenal athlete. They know when he’s [Brock Lesnar] gonna kick someone’s ass, and that’s what the fans like.
You look at Brock, and he’s real. Roman Reigns, and he’s real. You look at Randy Orton, and he’s real. These guys are big, muscular; they’re larger than life.
So when people are b*tching about him getting paid a lot, don’t make it don’t mistake. The fact that he earns it and he deserves it.”
