As noted on the very first episode of Monday Night Raw, Brock Lesnar is going to be the number one entrant in the Men’s Royal Rumble 2020 match. Despite being the WWE Champion, he will be entering this match since no opponent from Raw, SmackDown or NXT has dared to step foot inside the ring against him and thereby challenge him for the title.

Under such circumstances, Brock Lesnar decided to conquer 29 other superstars standing in his path. This would be a proud act from the champion to prove once again that he is untouchable at this point. But on the other hand, earlier reports suggested that the Royal Rumble appearance will kick off his WrestleMania program.

Meanwhile, one of the recent reports has claimed WWE may have been planning something interesting on the Road to WrestleMania. The eliminator of Brock Lesnar from Royal Rumble match will be none other than his Crown Jewel opponent, Cain Velasquez. This will resume their program to produce a second matchup between them.

Booker T Ready For WWE Royal Rumble, Update On Potential Big Match
According to Tom Colohue, the former UFC Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez could end up being the man to eliminate Lesnar from the Rumble, (courtesy wwfoldschool.com)
“What’s most likely to happen that it’s going to be Cain Velasquez. But we are where we are with that one.
The initial plan was for the Royal Rumble to feature another Cain Velasquez match or at least, Cain Velasquez would still be competing with Lesnar at some point.
There was a little bit of loss of faith in Velasquez, so that could be at play here.”
The angle of Velasquez eliminating Brock Lesnar makes sense. First off, the former UFC star still holds a grudge against Lesnar whereas WWE is scheduled to do a Saudi Arabia PPV in February 2020. So it’s possible that the officials are planning a rematch between Lesnar & Velasquez for the WWE Championship at the post-Royal Rumble pay-per-view.
