5 Possible reasons why Vince McMahon doesn't want Brock Lesnar to cash-in anytime soon

Brock Lesnar won the Money in the Bank contract in May and since then, he has been teasing cashing it in. At first, we thought Lesnar would cash-in on Monday Night Raw but then, he promised to do the same at Super ShowDown, but unfortunately, Paul Heyman’s stumble took the opportunity from him.

The Beast is yet to comment on his cash-in but it’s possible that he would provide a statement soon. Whenever Lesnar tried to cash-in, something obstructed him. He could have beat Seth Rollins on Raw when he beat him up but didn’t. He waited until the Saudi Arabian show to cash-in but failed to do so, thanks to Heyman’s stumble. Now the question remains: why didn’t Lesnar cash-in his contract?

Here are five possible reasons why Vince McMahon could be preventing him from cashing in.

#5 He doesn’t want Lesnar to lose his briefcase clean

Will someone cost Lesnar his briefcase

For the past two years, WWE wasted its Money in the Bank winners. First, it was Baron Corbin and then Braun Strowman. Both of these Superstars could have had a great title reign but for some reason, WWE didn’t feel the need to put a belt on them.

As per WrestleVotes, WWE planned Lesnar to fail his cash-in at Super ShowDown but the belt didn’t ring an thus, he is still Mr. Money in the Bank.

Maybe Vince wants Lesnar to keep the briefcase and not lose it clean. Corbin and Strowman’s failed cash-in(s) hurt them a lot and the Chairman of WWE would never want it to happen with Lesnar. Though he could still lose his briefcase because of outside interference. Someone like Drew McIntyre or Lars Sullivan could come out to interrupt The Beast while he cashes-in. But, to make this happen, WWE needs to get the storytelling part done.

#4 It will come to us as a shock

Will Lesnar surprise the WWE Universe through his cash-in

Brock Lesnar has been pre-announcing his Money in the Bank contract cash-in ever since he won it. Initially, he didn’t make it clear whom he will cash-in on but now, it seems like he wants to take revenge on Seth Rollins, who beat him at WrestleMania 35.

However, Lesnar’s action hurt him because when he came to cash-in, Rollins was ready to flip things up. If Lesnar continues to tell his victim when he will cash-in, then he might end up losing the briefcase. But, if he spontaneously returns to cash-in then Rollins could lose to him. Perhaps, Vince McMahon wants Lesnar to surprise us through his cash-in. It’s possible. Rollins cashed-in his briefcase at WrestleMania 31 and Lesnar could probably do something similar.

#3 Monday Night Raw and Super ShowDown weren’t the right places to cash-in

When will the cash-on occur?

Brock Lesnar is a popular Superstar. He hasn’t had a match on Raw for over a decade and every fan knows that he would not fight at the show again because WWE would rather prefer using him for a pay-per-view instead.

While Super ShowDown was a huge event, nobody has cashed-in the Money in the Bank briefcase outside America. It could be why The Beast didn’t cash-in in Jeddah. Now it’s likely that he would use his briefcase around the SummerSlam week as it comes under WWE’s ‘big four’ pay-per-views. But, since Lesnar has been swerving the WWE Universe about his cash-in, it wouldn’t be shocking if it didn’t occur at the Biggest Party of the Summer too.

#2 The Money in the Bank briefcase gives Lesnar a reason to show up on Raw and it is benefitting the WWE

Lesnar is bringing more eyeballs with him

It might be surprising for some fans but WWE’s ratings are increasing ever since Brock Lesnar won the Money in the Bank briefcase. He has been appearing a lot more than we thought he would and it’s proving to be good for WWE. Is it an indication that Lesnar would not cash-in anytime soon? Paul Heyman may have answered this question.

"I think you’ve already seen more of Brock Lesnar than I think people had any right to expect by the middle of May. Certainly, nobody called this shot. Since Brock Lesnar is about to announce the title he is going to focus on, I think you’re going to see more of Brock Lesnar in 2019 than you did in 2018. How much more? Again, why spoil the surprise?”

If Lesnar cashes-in his contract and becomes a champion, then his appearances would become rare because he wouldn’t have to defend the title on Raw and Heyman builds his feuds up. But, he can continue making appearances frequently to provide updates on his Money in the Bank cash-in.

#1 The current World Champions are not yet ready to lose their titles

Will Rollins lose his title this soon?

Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston became champions at WrestleMania 35. While it’s almost confirmed that Lesnar would cash-in on Rollins, it wouldn’t surprise us if he tries to do the same with Kingston.

But, is either champion ready to lose their title this soon? Fans still cheer for them and it would possibly create a riot among the WWE Universe if either one of them no longer remains a champion. It’s another reason why Vince McMahon has put a hold on Lesnar’s cash-in.

Maybe he wants Rollins and Kingston to continue their title reign for some more months and then let the cash-in take place. It makes sense because almost everyone loves Seth Rollins and Kofi Kingston and they wouldn’t want them to lose their titles, especially not to Lesnar.
