Reports that Brock Lesnar would be in London to beat Cody Rhodes' black and blue were false. The 'Beast' wasn't in town, and he didn't show face following Cody's win over a game Dominik Mysterio. Does that mean WWE plans to move on from Rhodes vs. Lesnar though? Absolutely not.

They'll keep the ambush back for Raw instead, or at least motor towards a blowoff battle between both men come SummerSlam in Detroit on 5 August. Don't forget that Cody and Brock are locked at one win apiece on pay-per-view - they'll settle the score inside Ford Field, and likely do so with a meaty gimmick match.

Hell In A Cell, perhaps?

WWE presented one of those at 'Mania between Finn Bálor and Edge, but enough time has passed for fans to refresh. Besides, Lesnar and Rhodes have been working a blood feud that merits being locked inside the famous cage (one trying to regain some lost lustre).
