Bobby Lashley faced Brock Lesnar in a dream match for the WWE Championship at WWE Royal Rumble 2022. Unexpectedly, Lashley emerged victorious in a contentious match to be crowned as the new WWE Champion, thanks to the assistance from WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns.

The contest between the two heavyweights delivered as it was expected. The match has multiple close calls with the then-champion Brock having Lesnar pinned in the centre of the ring for almost 7 counts. However, the referee was struck out and was unable to count the pinfall.

Following that, Universal Champion Roman Reigns entered the ring and slashed Lesnar with a spear. He then asked Paul Heyman to hand him the WWE belt before attacking his all-time fierce rival. Lashley took advantage of this to pin Lesnar and win the new WWE Champion.

Having won his WWE Championship back from the hands of Brock, Bobby Lashley mocked the previous WWE Champion on Twitter with a two-word message: Brock, who? This was a throwback to Lesnar’s RAW promo a couple of weeks earlier on Lashley, in which he mocked The All-Mighty with a “knock-knock” pun. 

The current champion Bobby Lashley also appeared on Corey Graves’ After the Bell podcast, after he was mocked by Lesnar a few weeks back. These were the words of the All-Mighty:

“He said it on RAW Monday, I’m not gonna say it p*d me off, because I’m gonna keep this smile on my face… this whole, ‘Bobby who?’ That’s what I told you before, there’s not this whole, ‘Hey, Brock, I’m so excited to get the opportunity to be in the ring with you.’ All this stuff, that’s bulls.”

Bobby’s manager MVP also took some digs at Lesnar and claimed on the same podcast that Bobby Lashley has been training hard and he was all prepared to face the Beast Incarnate. Well, be it with some help, but Bobby did beat Brock Lesnar at Royal Rumble and is now headed to the Elimination Chamber pay-per-view to defend his WWE Championship against 5 Superstars in an Elimination Chamber match with one of the challengers being the Royal Rumble winner Brock Lesnar.
