7 Ups And 10 Downs From WWE Raw's Season Premiere (Sept 30)
4. Booing Brock
Just in case fans were tempted to be cynical and cheer Brock Lesnar in his WWE Championship match Friday night, WWE made sure to give them plenty of reason to hate on The Beast.
Lesnar interrupted Rey Mysterio to open Raw and promptly hit two F5s on the masked luchador, but he wasn’t even close to finished. Brock then pulled Rey’s son Dominick out of the crowd and demolished him with a slam and a German suplex. He then continued his attack on both men, leading to a stretcher job for young Dominick.
The attack dragged on for a good while, with Lesnar returning to the ring twice to continue the beatings. It was the kind of thing that was uncomfortable to watch after a while, and certainly shouldn’t leave fans feeling good about his potential reign as a champion again.
