One of the most memorable moments of the 2020 WWE Royal Rumble saw Drew McIntyre eliminate Brock Lesnar with a Claymore Kick after Ricochet weakened “The Beast” with a low-blow.

The following week, Ricochet defeated Bobby Lashley and Seth Rollins in a Triple Threat match on RAW to set up a WWE Championship match against Brock Lesnar at the Super ShowDown event in Saudi Arabia.

WWE had already planted the seeds for a marquee match between Brock Lesnar and McIntyre at WrestleMania 36, which meant Ricochet’s chances of causing an upset against his much larger opponent were slim-to-none.

Unfortunately for “The One and Only”, while Brock Lesnar’s matches against opponents of a similar size (Daniel Bryan and AJ Styles, for example) lasted over 15 minutes, the Super ShowDown encounter turned out to be a rare WWE Championship squash match.

Ricochet attempted a dropkick within the first few seconds but Brock Lesnar easily brushed him aside. The former UFC star followed up with three German suplexes and an F-5 to win the match inside just 90 seconds.
