In the main event of last night’s WWE Backlash 2023 premium live event, Cody Rhodes defeated Brock Lesnar.
Lesnar got busted open during the match after going head-first into an exposed turnbuckle. Cody pinned Brock while being locked in the Kimura Lock.
The referee threw a towel at Brock after the match, so he could clean himself up.
After the show went off the air, 17,944 Puerto Rico fans in attendance showed love to The Beast Incarnate by chanting “Suplex City” and “Thank You Lesnar”.
