Universal Championship Match Made For “Royal Rumble 2018”

And Beast makes three. We’re less than six weeks away from “Royal Rumble 2018” and that means it’s time to get ready for both the namesake battle royal but also a bunch of other matches. One of the biggest on the show will be Universal Champion Brock Lesnar’s title defense, which isn’t quite set in stone yet. We got close to announcing an opponent last week, but now we know for sure.

This week on “Monday Night Raw”, General Manager Kurt Angle announced that Lesnar will defend against Braun Strowman and Kane. The two challengers had a #1 contenders match last week but fought to a double countout. Lesnar has never fought Kane before but defeated Strowman at “No Mercy 2017”.

Here’s what happened last week, before Lesnar got involved.

Experience the monstrous main event between Braun Strowman and Kane like never before

Opinion: It’s not great but I’ll take what I can get at the pay per view. There’s no hiding the fact that it’s just killing time before Lesnar defends against Roman Reigns at “Wrestlemania XXXIV” so it’s not exactly worth getting your hopes up. Hopefully they have a fun power fight, which Strowman and Lesnar are capable of doing. Kane is likely there to take the fall and there’s nothing wrong with that.

Is there any chance of a title change? Is this the best match they could have? Let us know in the comments below.
