Seth Rollins hit Brock Lesnar with a low blow last night to close their segment on RAW. According to a report from the Wrestling Observer, however, what happened last night was as a result of a last-minute booking change. Originally, Brock Lesnar was supposed to be the one standing tall at the end of the segment.

“That segment was originally written to go the other way,” Dave Meltzer said of the Lesnar/Rollins segment. “It was right before the show started they switched it. It was a Vince call and it was the right call.”

Highlights from the segment can be seen below:

Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar have wrestled in single’s action just once on WWE programming. They wrestled to a no-contest draw at Battleground in 2015. Rollins was defending the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in the match.

Lesnar and Rollins have met twice in multi-person matches. At the 2015 Royal Rumble, Lesnar won a triple threat match against John Cena and Rollins to defend the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Rollins then beat Lesnar and Roman Reigns for the title at 2 months later at WrestleMania 35.

The match will be just the 2nd title defense for Lesnar after having won the title at Crown Jewel last November. The champion defeated Finn Balor at Royal Rumble 2019.
