5. Brock Lesnar vs. Ricochet – WWE Championship Match
The WWE Champion entered the Royal Rumble 2020 match at #1 and had a very impressive performance by eliminating 13 men in the match. However, he got hit with a low-blow by Ricochet, and the eventual Royal Rumble 2020 winner Drew McIntyre took advantage and eliminated Lesnar.

Ricochet stood up to Brock Lesnar at the RAW before Royal Rumble and was taken out by the WWE Champion for it. Lesnar hit him with a low blow and told him he was not scared of him.
Lesnar humiliating Ricochet on RAW was probably the reason why Ricochet cost Lesnar the Rumble match.
There’s a possibility that Ricochet will face Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship at Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia next month. WWE will be looking to give Lesnar one huge victory heading into WrestleMania 36.
Besides, Lesnar’s appearance in Saudi Arabia is a guaranteed (as it’s in his contract that he’ll work all the Saudi Arabia PPVs), while Ricochet is also used frequently there. Their match was rumored for the Royal Rumble, but now it may happen at Super ShowDown.
