Brock Lesnar's gift to Cody Rhodes

With his win over Lesnar at SummerSlam 2023, Cody Rhodes ended up with a 2-1 lead over The Beast Incarnate. He later appeared on Flagrant and revealed that he received a gift from Lesnar following the conclusion of their feud.

“I’ll ruin it for some: his professionalism is so underrated. He is one of, if not, the most professional and understanding of what we wanted. He has a farm in Canda. I hope you’re not mad at me for sharing this, but he sent me an entire cow worth of steaks. He took a picture of himself with the cow, because he does it all. He’s a real farmer. I thought: ‘what a legend!’” [H/T TalkSPORT]

Lesnar was named in Janel Grant's lawsuit filed against Vince McMahon, and many fans fully believe he will never return to a WWE ring again. In his last WWE feud, Lesnar put Cody Rhodes over big time and lost two matches to The American Nightmare.

As for Rhea Ripley, she is mere days away from taking on IYO SKY in a Women's World title match on RAW. The winner of the bout will face Bianca Belair at WrestleMania 41.

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.
