En route vers un match entre Lesnar et Lashley

La WWE a pris les fans par surprise en incoporant Brock Lesnar au match à quatre lutteurs pour le titre mondial, après avoir annoncé que Roman Reigns ne pouvait pas lutter à Day 1 à cause de la COVID-19.

Et Lesnar a été à la hauteur en devenant le nouveau champion, succédant ainsi à Big E.

Selon Dave Meltzer, sur Wrestling Observer Radio, la WWE se dirige bel et bien vers un affrontement entre Lesnar et Bobby Lashley.

Dave Meltzer soutient qu’un possible match entre Big E et Lesnar a été envisagé, mais que la WWE a finalement décidé de choisir Lashley car ce sera plus facile à promouvoir. Le fait que c’est Big E qui a été celui qui a reçu le compte de 3 à la fin démontre qu’il est écarté des prochains plans pour le titre mondial.

“With Lesnar having won the title, the next step is Lesnar vs. Lashley. You could tell, at the end of the show, they teased that glare with Lashley and everything like that, and that was the last scene. The match was booked specifically for that direction. Big E was the one that was pinned because if Big E wasn’t pinned, and obviously, you’d want to go with Lesnar and Big E. But, the decision, for whatever reason, and the reason is that the people who are making the decisions felt that there was a more marketable match, went with Lesnar and Lashley.”

La WWE a donné des indices sur ce début de rivalité, entre autres lorsque Lashley a dévisagé longuement Lesnar après le match d’hier soir. De plus, Lashley n’a pas été la victime des F5 de Lesnar. Lashley a par ailleurs appliqué un Spear sur Lesnar, question de lui donner de la crédibilité contre lui.

“During the match, if you remember, Lesnar F5ed everyone but never F5ed Lashley, and they set up a couple of spots, which was the Lashley spear through the barricade. There was the Lashley spear in the ring, although Lesnar did kick out of that spear. Then there was the Hurt Lock, which Lesnar was trapped in, with the idea that Lashley proved he could get him in there and probably beat him, but Big E made the save there. They booked spots all to be dominant; all the spots with Lashley and Lesnar were booked for Lashley to look good while Lesnar pulverized everybody else and destroyed everybody else. So that’s the story of where they are going with this.”
