Some more information is coming out regarding Brock Lesnar, so we’ll see what’s going
on there.
We’ll also check out what Goldberg is saying about another match, the latest for The Hurt
Business, and much more
Let’s start things off with this big report for Brock Lesnar’s Wrestlemania match
When Bray Wyatt first put the notice out there that he was coming after the Elimination Chamber
winner between Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley, everyone in that moment thought that Brock
Lesnar would be the more ideal matchup for Bray Wyatt at Wrestlemania
And like we said last time we talked about this, Bray and Brock never fully competed
against each other, but they’ve been physical with each other in years past
Plus Brock Lesnar pretty much falls into the category of opponents Bray Wyatt used to go
for
Bray Wyatt went though a point in his career where he was targeting the more larger than
life, iconic superstars and trying to take them down
Bray had matches with legendary individuals like Kane, Randy Orton, John Cena, The Undertaker,
and so many more.
That narrative has always been there in the background
So Brock Lesnar falls into that category of legendary superstars that Bray Wyatt usually
likes to target and toy with
So when it was revealed that it was actually Bray Wyatt versus Bobby Lashley, fans were
a little surprised by that
Well Fightful is now reporting that WWE’s original plan was to have Brock Lesnar face
Bray Wyatt at Wrestlemania 39
Why didn’t those plans go through?
Well according to those same reports, it was Brock Lesnar himself who allegedly turned
down the Wrestlemania match and feud with Bray Wyatt
The reports don’t really get into detail on why Brock Lesnar turned down the Wrestlemania
match with Bray Wyatt, but fans theorize that Brock probably wasn’t into the spooky, supernatural
storytelling and wanted no part of that
Which is understandable because feuding with Bray Wyatt and getting into a story like that
is definitely quite the challenge, especially for someone like Brock Lesnar who doesn’t
have that much experience with those sorts of stories
So after Brock Lesnar turned down Bray Wyatt, that’s reportedly when Omos’ name started
to be thrown into the hat and reports claim that Brock Lesnar personally approved of the
Wrestlemania match with Omos
It also goes to show you that Brock Lesnar has some serious creative say with his booking
It looks like he has the power to veto any opponent or story that he’s not too fond
of
So maybe this also explains why Bray Wyatt versus Bobby Lashley feels a little bit random
and out of the blue
Bray Wyatt versus Brock Lesnar was the story and plan that was supposed to be in place,
so Bobby Lashley is a secondary fill-in for this match
Will they go through with the same original story that they had planned for Bray Wyatt
versus Brock Lesnar, but just replacing Brock’s role with Bobby Lashley?
Or will the story and feud be more direct and customized for Bobby Lashley?
Those are the questions that would have to be answered here in the coming weeks
So it’s because of Brock Lesnar’s decision that these two separate matches came into
existence, so we’ll have to see how both stories and matches hold up by the time Wrestlemania
comes around in a few weeks
————————-
Speaking of uncertainties, that brings us to The Hurt Business
WWE was heavily teasing the reunion of The Hurt Business towards the last few weeks of
2022 and into the first few weeks of 2023
MVP helped to get Bobby Lashley reinstated on Raw, MVP was seen talking with Shelton
Benjamin and Cedric Alexander backstage several times, MVP even gave Bobby Lashley the offer
to rejoin him… but nothing ever came from any of that
And like some fans say, things can’t happen immediately, you do have to be patient especially
if it is a little bit of a slow-burn story, but it’s been weeks upon weeks since there’s
been any sort of Hurt Business related teaser or hint at all
So at least with a slow-burn story, you’re getting some sort of progression and hint
every so often
But with the Hurt Business reunion story, things feel like it just completely flatlined
That buzz isn’t there anymore because the teasers just disappeared and stopped happening
So that’s another story that fans are pretty much clueless on right now, because no one
seems to know if it’s still happening or if it was scrapped
Especially because Omos and MVP will now be focusing on Brock Lesnar, and Bobby Lashley
now has his hands full with Bray Wyatt
We know that Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley were feuding with each other for a long time
So is this another way for MVP to send another message to Bobby Lashley?
Is MVP looking to maybe avenge Bobby Lashley by really taking care of Brock Lesnar with
Omos?
Is this all part MVP’s plan to get on even better terms with Bobby Lashley and further
the possibility of getting The Hurt Business back together?
It’s all possible, but it’s hard to tell right now, we’ll have to see if The Hurt
Business reunion story will pick back up sometime after Wrestlemania

Goldberg is no doubt one of those legendary pro wrestlers that is well known across the
whole world
He had his great run in WCW, he had his small WWE run in the early 2000s, and he’s been
competing on a limited basis with WWE ever since 2016
It’s still a crazy stat and hard to believe that Goldberg even won the WWE Universal Title
during this second run with WWE
Goldberg’s most recent match with WWE came in early 2022 where he challenged Roman Reigns
for the Universal Title
Goldberg recently spoke with Sports illustrated and revealed that he feels like WWE owes him
a retirement match, he had this to say on the possibility of having one more match,
quote:
“You never say never, especially in wrestling, and they owe me one.
That’s all I can say.
I made a deal with the devil and I did my job, and they owe me a retirement match.
At the end of the day, at 56, it’s not something where I’m sitting by the phone waiting for
a call.
I’ve got a few ideas of how to do it on my own, possibly in Israel.
So never say never.”
So it looks Goldberg is saying that he did his side of the deal, he competed and fulfilled
all of his match obligations that were on his old deal
He just feels like WWE owes him one more match and how that will be his official retirement
match
Of course, Goldberg isn’t currently under contract, so if he is going to have this retirement
match, WWE is gonna have to get in touch with him to make the deal happen
But according to Goldberg, he has one more big match left in him if the phone does ever
ring from WWE

There’s been another small update to the entire conversation about which match will
main event night one of Wrestlemania 39
We previously went over how the two matches with the strongest chances of main eventing
night one of Wrestlemania could be either Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens versus The Usos,
or Charlotte Flair versus Rhea Ripley
Well the latest update on that situation is that the main event for night one hasn’t
even been revealed internally yet, everyone is still being left in the dark on the night
one main event
But reports claim that the internal belief and feeling is that night one’s main event
spot will be going to Rhea Ripley versus Charlotte Flair
So it’s definitely going to be a situation to monitor over the next few weeks to see
if another update comes out there regarding that main event
