WWE News: Brock Lesnar to confront Elimination Chamber winner on RAW

What's the story?

We're mere days away from the Elimination Chamber and one of seven men has the chance to earn a WrestleMania title match against Brock Lesnar for the Universal Title. However, 'The Beast Incarnate' and his advocate Paul Heyman will be wasting no time in confronting their future opponent.

In case you didn't know...

Due to a confusing finish in the Last Chance Fatal Fiveway match, that Seth Rollins was added to last minute, both Rollins and Finn Balor were added to the Men's Elimination Chamber match.

Now there are seven men vying for a chance to wrestle Lesnar at 'Mania, with Roman Reigns, The Miz, Elias, Braun Strowman and John Cena joining the aforementioned Rollins and Balor in the match.

The heart of the matter

All of this seems to have been done in an attempt to muddy the waters as to who will emerge from the Chamber match victorious, although the general consensus still seems to be that Roman Reigns is the favourite.

Regardless of who actually wins the match, however, Paul Heyman has taken to Twitter to reveal that Brock Lesnar will be at the post-Elimination Chamber RAW to confront his next title opponent face-to-face

My congratulations in advance to the winner of @WWE #EliminationChamber. And my apologies, also in advance, for what @BrockLesnar will say to the face of that aforementioned winner of the Chamber, LIVE this Monday in Anaheim on #RAW! pic.twitter.com/u50wU5ApYl

What's next?

The road to WrestleMania is already underway following the Royal Rumble pay-per-view, but given that the show is in April it seems that WWE are not going to let any of the two-month build-ups go to waste by having Lesnar go face to face with his opponent almost as soon as is humanly possible.

Author's take

It's an exciting prospect to see Brock Lesnar confront anyone around WrestleMania season but even then I'm hoping that the WWE have something special planned for the first confrontation between the two people in, what is sure to be, the main event of 'Mania.
