5 smartest things WWE Superstars did to trick their opponents

#3 Brock Lesnar has a creative idea to defeat The Big Show

At Judgment Day 2003, Brock Lesnar met The Big Show in a Stretcher match for the WWE Title. The bout could be won when one wrestler placed the other on a stretcher and dragged them beyond a marking on the entranceway.

Lesnar found it impossible to carry Show towards the marking on his own. The hard-fought match saw Lesnar struggling against the giant, but he somehow managed to keep his cool, which led to this amazing moment.

Lesnar suddenly headed backstage, pointing to his head. Soon, he came back driving a forklift of all things! Big Show got distracted by Rey Mysterio, who snuck up on him from behind. After making quick work of the Cruiserweight, Big Show turned, only for Lesnar to launch himself at him.

The Beast carried The Big Show on the forklift and drove it towards the marking line. As soon as the vehicle crossed the line, Brock Lesnar won the match and retained his title.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
