Brock Lesnar vs Bobby Lashley was the opening match of the night for Crown Jewel but it ended up being a disappointment for the fans.
Fans expected to see a lot of destruction when these two monster-sized athletes collided. The bout started with Lashley attacking The Beast Incarnate during his entrance even before the bell had rung. The two then exchanged blows with Lashley dominating the first half of the bout. Lesnar later managed to get back at his opponent.
The ending of the match was a bit disappointing as Bobby Lashley locked Brock Lesnar in the Hurt Lock. At one point it looked as if Lesnar would pass out but he used the ropes to throw Lashley down. Bobby Lashley didn’t break the hold even after this. The referee, however, counted the pin as Brock was on top and Lashley’s shoulders were down.
While Brock won the match, the All Mighty didn’t like the way things ended. The former US champion attacked Lesnar after the match and put him in hurt lock again before finally going back. This suggests that we haven’t seen the last of this rivalry.
