WWE SummerSlam: 5 Mistakes that were made

#3. Brock Lesnar made his return and targetted Roman Reigns rather than Bobby Lashley at SummerSlam

Brock Lesnar returned to WWE for the first time since WrestleMania 36 last night at SummerSlam.

Following Roman Reigns' victory over John Cena, Lesnar made his presence known as he debuted a new look to make it clear that he was far from done with Reigns.

While it's exciting that Lesnar is back and Reigns and The Beast Incarnate now have Paul Heyman to fight over, it's still going to be Reigns vs. Lesnar, which was a match the WWE Universe had pushed down their throat just a few years ago.

Bobby Lashley deserved to be the one that Lesnar targeted so that The Almighty could have the match that he was promised against Lesnar at Survivor Series or even in Saudi Arabia in October.

WWE has several options for Lesnar's SummerSlam return, but instead, they decided to push the same button that has been pushed many times, rather than allowing someone new to be on Lesnar's radar.
