The All Mighty Bobby Lashley became a two-time WWE Champion by defeating Brock Lesnar at Royal Rumble 2022. Now, Lashley set to defend his WWE Title against five superstars inside the Elimination Chamber. If Bobby Lashley wins, he will have to wrestle The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar again in March.
WWE will be holding a mega event at Madison Square Garden on March 5th, 2022. According to the recent reports, big names like Brock Lesnar, Ronda Rousey, and Roman Reigns will be part of the show.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE planned two marquee matches Brock Lesnar vs. WWE Champion Bobby Lashley and Seth Rollins vs. Universal Champion Roman Reigns for the MSG show.
Dave Meltzer also noted that Brock Lesnar was added to the MSG show because the company’s last event there did not sell out. As a result, WWE is planning huge star attraction like Brock Lesnar against Lashley to sell more tickets for Madison Square Garden.
“It’s pretty clear Vince McMahon wasn’t taking that last Madison Square Garden show doing one of the lowest crowds in the last 80 years in the building lying down. Not only did he add Lesnar to the show, and every Lesnar appearance is very expensive and hardly cost effective for a house show, particularly in a building where you need a huge number just to break even and really running the building itself with the crowd they drew the last time would be tough,” stated Meltzer.
