As promised, Brock Lesnar kicked off tonight’s episode of Monday Night RAW. His advocate, Paul Heyman, did most of the talking for him, though. “Here’s where Seth Rollins proves himself to be a fool,” said Heyman after referencing Rollins talking about Lesnar having difficulty with smaller opponents. “Brock Lesnar vs. AJ Styles. Was the winner AJ Styles? The winner of that match was Brock Lesnar.” He then listed off the names of Daniel Bryan and Finn Balor, but reminded us that Lesnar beat them all.

Heyman went on to praise Rollins’ opponent tonight, Drew McIntyre and called him a career ender. One would think that Heyman would be interrupted by Rollins, but instead out came Drew McIntyre. “It’s refreshing to finally get the respect I’ve earned,” said McIntyre. “After tonight, after I brutalize Seth Rollins, I assure you he’s not going to make WrestelMania.”

However, Rollins came out with a steel chair and attacked McIntyre several times. This was revenge after McIntyre attacked both Reigns and Ambrose last week. Rollins then went to get face-to-face with Lesnar, but the Universal Champion got out of the ring as the challenger entered.
