Speaking of Lesnar & Vince, ProWrestlingSheet reported earlier today that there was a backstage confrontation between Brock Lesnar & Vince McMahon at WrestleMania 34 and people had to step in to make sure things don’t get out of hand.
During this verbal confrontation, an angry Lesnar threw the Universal Title belt either at Vince or the wall.
There’s also a rumour going on that Lesnar went off the script a little bit towards the end of the match, but this hasn’t been confirmed yet.
We’ll keep you updated regarding this situation.
Speaking of Lesnar, below is what WWE posted about him in the RAW preview on their website:
“Paul Heyman said it would be a spoiler, and a spoiler it was. Brock Lesnar defeated Roman Reigns in one of the most shocking WrestleMania main events in history to retain the Universal Championship.
The Beast and Reigns threw down in the barbaric contest, which saw broken tables, a busted open Reigns and six F-5s, which led to The Anomaly standing tall. What new challenges await Lesnar as he continues his now seemingly unstoppable reign atop the red brand? And what does Roman Reigns do now that he’s come up short in his quest to finally tame The Beast?”
