February 18, 2023, edition of WWE Elimination Chamber was a total blockbuster. The WWE Universe got to see some of the exceptional matches in the history of the pro wrestling company. However, there was one match that received huge criticism from the fans. The bout between Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley ended in a peculiar way that no one in the WWE Universe had anticipated.

The jampacked crowd of Montreal, Canada, saw The Beast strike The Almighty under the belt. This resulted in the match ending via disqualification in the latter’s favor. However, certain sources state that this was not how the ending was supposed to be in the first place.

WWE pitched Brock Lesnar to win originally

‘Wrestling Observer’ recently revealed that WWE had initially planned The Conqueror to beat The Almighty at last month’s PLE. But the course of the direction was changed when Bray Wyatt was introduced in the Lashley vs Lesnar storyline.

Since The Beast Incarnate refused to have The Eater of the Worlds as his WrestleMania opponent, WWE had to change plans last minute. The company, then, chose to end the Lesnar vs Lashley match via DQ so that the latter advances to The Show of Shows, this year, to face Wyatt.

“Originally what was going to happen was Brock was beating Bobby Lashley at Elimination Chamber. And that was going to lead to Brock against Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania. And that’s why Bray Wyatt did that interview (calling out the winner). But after they did that, they had to change the finish,” wrote Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio.
