Brock Lesnar wanted to create history as the WWE Champion entered the 2020 Royal Rumble as the first entrant.
The Beast was trying to win the clash and seemed to be in great shape early on. He eliminated stars such as Elias, Rey Mysterio, Erick Rowan, John Morrison, Keith Lee and Braun Strowman.
In fact, Lesnar eliminated 13 men before the unthinkable happened.
Lesnar could have won this match and faced off against the other champion at WrestleMania or even taken the night off, however, things didn’t go as planned for the Beast.
Ricochet and Drew McIntyre were in the ring as Brock Lesnar stared down the Scottish Psychopath.
The Beast had destroyed Ricochet on last week’s Raw and had pummelled the high-flyer in this match too.
However, he didn’t eliminate Ricochet as quickly as the other stars. The Beast was staring down McIntyre as the Scot looked on but there was more to come for the WWE Champion.
Ricochet hit him with a low blow and that was enough for McIntyre to take advantage. The Scot eliminated the Beast, who looked shocked outside the ring, and his dream of winning the Rumble came to an end.
The night wasn’t over for McIntyre though as he was one of the final competitors in the 2020 Royal Rumble.
McIntyre has been on an incredible rise in recent months and eliminated Roman Reigns to win the Royal Rumble.
This was the Scot’s first win in the competition and it will be interesting to see which champion he wants to face.
Edge also was one of the big talking points in the clash, as the Rated-R Superstar returned to the WWE ring after nine years.
