The WrestleMania 39 match card is fully stacked up with various intriguing encounters on offer. Among them is the battle of two behemoths Omos and Brock Lesnar. While the latter has got nothing to prove, the onus will be on his opponent to perform as per the expectations. Who dominates the encounter between ‘The Beast or ‘The Giant’, we will get that answer come ‘The Showcase of Immortals’.
In the buildup to the monumental clash, Lesnar came face to face with Omos’ mouthpiece MVP recently. Besides getting a taste of The Conqueror’s liquor ‘The White Lightning’ he also got an F-5 for his troubles. And now the former US champion has taken a dig at Lesnar.

MVP recently appeared on WWE After The Bell With Corey Graves podcast. He discussed his prodigy’s prospects against the former UFC Heavyweight champion. The notorious manager also took a shot at Lesnar’s drinking choice.
He said, “That stuff was like this grain alcohol and I felt like you can taste the oil or whatever lubrication they use for the metal it was disgusting. You got I like a single malt scotch old enough to order itself you know like.”
“I was, I was actually insulted that he would offer me such disgusting I don’t even know rotten is the best way I can describe it but you know Brock, he is a farmer, he has no class no culture you know he plays in dirt,” added the veteran.
MVP had the same reaction to the events that unfolded on the March 6th edition of Raw and now. And it’s fair to say he was not a fan of the taste of the White Lightning. And the fact that he went on a long and unhinged rant suggests he is not a big admirer of Lesnar’s mannerisms either.
These sub-plots have gone a long way in hyping up the upcoming encounter between Omos and Lesnar. Fans were not in favor of their clash initially but appear to have changed their opinion.

The announcement that “The Nigerian Giant’ will be taking on Lesnar at ‘The Grand Daddy of Them All’ did not go down well with the masses initially.
But the 7ft 3-inch giant has seemingly won them over. He surpassed some of the who’s who of the Stamford-based promotion in terms of viewership numbers following his interaction with Lesnar on RAW. An indication of people developing an interest in the unusual rivalry.
WWE would have been worried about the response initially but would be relieved to see their ideation finally bearing fruit.
The Omos and Brock Lesnar rivalry is pressing the right buttons with the audience. And for that, MVP also deserves massive praise. While Omos gears up for arguably the biggest fight of his career, the heel manager is playing every trick in the book to unsettle Lesnar.
