According to former creative team member Seth Mates, WWE creative planned for Brock Lesnar to win the WWE Championship less than three months after he made his WWE debut.
Seth Mates wrote “…I remember hearing that the plan was for Brock to win King of the Ring at the end of June and then to beat Rock for the WWE Title at SummerSlam.”
He also mentioned “…this was only a couple of months after Brock had made his debut. And by the time I joined creative in July 2002, the plan was for Brock to face Angle in the WrestleMania main event eight months later.”
