Wwe Loads Up Tonight S Wwe Raw With Brock Lesnar No 1 Contender S Match

WWE wrapped Saturday night’s Day 1 pay-per-view with Brock Lesnar pinning Big E in a five-way match to become the new WWE Champion. This immediately raised questions regarding the future direction of The Red Brand, given a) Lesnar had been used primarily on SmackDown despite his onscreen “free agent” status, b) his rumored match with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 38 in April is apparently still happening and c) the decision to have E drop the title was apparently a last-minute call, to the point where official social media graphics were accidentally released showing E listed as the winner of the initially-planned four-way match.

You all saw what I did to Brock Saturday. That look like someone that’s gonna let any one of these three stand in his way? It’s inevitable. #WWERaw https://t.co/dkSYQph4Pe
