But now that he’s victorious, Lesnar has his sights set on Drew McIntyre, his opponent for WrestleMania taking place on April 5. McIntyre won the men’s Royal Rumble back in January, later selecting Lesnar as his opponent for April. Ricochet had a hand in helping McIntyre eliminate Lesnar at the Royal Rumble due to Ricochet kicking Lesnar below the belt, leading to McIntyre hitting the champion with the Claymore Kick.
