The rampage of Brock Lesnar continues on WWE programming ahead of his big championship shot on this Friday Night on Smackdown. Before heading into the season premiere on FOX, he made an emphatic statement on WWE Raw by injuring Rey Mysterio and his son, Dominick in a vicious attack. Both of them had to receive medical attention. Also, the scheduled main event of the night did not take place as Rey was in no condition to compete.

Earlier, The Master of 619 opened WWE Raw talking about the championship match against Seth Rollins when Brock Lesnar arrived at the ring. He caught the ‘biggest little man’ with an instant F-5 to hurt him. Dominick soon felt the wrath of the beast incarnate after receiving a German Suplex on the floor. Lesnar sent him to the barricade as officials ran out to make the save. But he went ahead to ambush one of them and then deliver two more F-5s on Mysterio causing a massacre on the show.

Brock Lesnar appeared on WWE TV on the very next episode of Smackdown after Clash of Champions. It was a shocking return that put the WWE Champion on notice and set a title match on Smackdown premiere over on FOX on October 4th. This was a smart idea from WWE perspective as they always wanted to garner more attention on the Friday night programming. Including the beast incarnate to the card fulfilled their wish in the least effort.
Speculations are running rampant that WWE booked this match for one reason only and that’s to take the title away from Kofi Kingston. FOX wants Brock Lesnar to be the face of the Smackdown brand. Hence, it’s a no-brainer that the beast will make regular TV appearances as the WWE Champion on the blue brand. As the match looms in within just four days, we expected to see a dominant side of Lesnar as per WWE.com,
“Brock Lesnar’s dance card is pretty full for SmackDown’s move to Fox on Friday, Oct. 4, as he’ll challenge Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship in his first SmackDown match in 15 years. But before The Beast goes blue, he’ll be making a stopover on the Raw season premiere. What business The Conqueror has on the red brand remains to be seen. But clearly, Brock Lesnar goes where Brock Lesnar wants, and Brock Lesnar does as he pleases when he gets there. The question might not be what he has planned for Raw’s season premiere, but who, if anybody, will be left standing once he leaves.”
But the rampage he created on WWE Raw, went beyond the expectation.
