Brock Lesnar Shows Up On 7/22 WWE SmackDown, Beats Theory With MITB Briefcase
Brock Lesnar arrived.
Hours before WWE SmackDown it was reported that Lesnar had “abruptly left” the show following the news of Vince McMahon retiring as WWE CEO. Lesnar had been advertised for the show since last Friday’s WWE SmackDown and was featured in the advertising on WWE.com as of Friday afternoon.
By Friday evening, Lesnar was no longer advertised on the WWE website.
However, Lesnar showed up at the end of WWE SmackDown, destroying Theory with his Money in the Bank briefcase with a big smile on his face.
Michael Cole and Pat McAfee acted surprised by Lesnar’s appearance saying, “I thought. Boston thought….”
