The suplexes continued from Lesnar’s side until Lashley found the opportunity to shower The Beast with punches, break an F5 attempt by Lesnar, and spear him twice.

Following this, the match went ringside and Lashley sprinted towards Lesnar to spear him through the barricades. But The Beast moved in time and Lashley went through the barricades himself.
Once the men returned to the ring, Lesnar didn’t spare Lashley. He delivered multiple suplexes to Lashley!
The Almighty locked Lesnar in The Hurt Lock, but wasn’t successful in getting a tap out. Unfortunately for Lesnar, when he executed an F5 on Lashley, the referee took a significant portion of the impact!
