On this week’s episode of Raw, the stage was officially set for the first-ever Brock Lesnar vs. Bobby Lashley one-on-one match.
Lashley will challenge for Lesnar’s WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble on Saturday, January 29. Lashley was confirmed as Lesnar’s first challenger by defeating Big E, Kevin Owens, and Seth Rollins in a fatal four-way match in the main event of Monday’s Raw.
After Lashley’s win, Lesnar was asked to comment on facing him at the Royal Rumble. But instead of acknowledging Lashley, Lesnar just stated that he’ll be appearing on SmackDown this Friday. Lesnar said he’ll see Roman Reigns there.
In the opening segment of Monday’s Raw, Lesnar reunited with Paul Heyman after winning the WWE Championship at Day 1. Lesnar credited Heyman for getting him in the WWE title match after Reigns tested positive for COVID-19.
It was also announced that a triple threat match to determine Raw Women’s Champion Becky Lynch’s challenger for the Royal Rumble will take place next Monday. It will be Liv Morgan vs. Bianca Belair vs. Doudrop.
Plus, it was confirmed that Edge & Beth Phoenix will face The Miz & Maryse in a mixed tag match at the Royal Rumble.
