Ricochet and Brock Lesnar had a brief face-off prior to Royal Rumble 2020. Paul Heyman, as usual, was trying to hype Lesnar, when Ricochet interrupted him and claimed that he was not scared of ‘The Beast’.
Now, as everyone knows, Brock Lesnar does not bother himself with petty call-outs. He only shows his skills in the main events of big pay-per-views. However, this time, Ricochet went a step too far and asked Lesnar if he was afraid of him.
This is when he struck a nerve, and Lesnar entered the ring to put down Ricochet. He delivered a brutal low blow on him and then walked away with the WWE belt over his shoulder.

It wasn’t wise of Ricochet to call out ‘The Beast’. Unfortunately, he did, and Lesnar showed him why it was a mistake.
Brock Lesnar and Ricochet battled at Royal Rumble 2020

Lesnar’s attention was on McIntyre, and Ricochet seized the opportunity to nail Lesnar with a low-blow.

Taking advantage of a wounded ‘Beast,’ he eliminated Lesnar with a vicious claymore kick.

The feud between Lesnar and Ricochet was a minor attempt by the company to give a slight push to Ricochet. Once in a while, WWE puts a monster against a seemingly smaller pro-wrestler. Even when this feud started, everybody in the WWE Universe knew that Ricochet could never be put over Brock Lesnar.

Even though Ricochet played a role in eliminating Lesnar, it did little good for him.
In fact, the entire time that WWE put him in a feud with Lesnar, his only role was to make Lesnar look like a real threat before Mania. The only person who came off looking good in this story was Brock Lesnar.
