5 WWE rumors from this week you need to know (February 4th, 2019)

#4 Jericho vs. Lesnar in 2019?

Jericho deleted tweets that were reportedly hinting at a match against the Universal Champion

Chris Jericho and Brock Lesnar may be two of the most successful Superstars in WWE history, which is why it's shocking to discover that these two icons have never faced off in a singles match.

Despite never facing, it's clear that Jericho is hoping for a match against the current Universal Champion, according to the Wrestling Observer.

The Observer has mentioned several tweets by the inaugural Undisputed Champion as proof of Jericho hoping for the match, as the tweets were quickly deleted, though also admitted that a match between the two is highly unlikely.

Lesnar is riding high as the top star in WWE, and with Jericho recently signing with All Elite Wrestling, it seems the two will not collide, as the WWE will pay seemingly anything to keep the Beast Incarnate.
