Nothing can take the WWE Universe’s breath away other than changing the main event of a big PPV. In WWE, it’s nothing new as well. When wrestlers don’t show up, the events will have to be changed.
And if the news released before SmackDown is to be believed, Brock Lesnar has walked out of the arena. Leading to rumors of Goldberg or other major superstars filling up for Lesnar in the main event against Roman Reigns.

These rumors are firing up as Vince McMahon has just announced his retirement. Also, it was announced that Stephanie McMahon and Nick Khan would be taking over as co-CEOs. But at the end of the day, that did not happen as Brock Lesnar showed up and cleaned the house.
Fans react to Brock Lesnar arriving at WWE SmackDown after rumors
Before WWE SmackDown went on air, WWE announced that Brock Lesnar is going to make an appearance this Friday. But when the dirt sheet for this week’s show got leaked, there was no mention of Lesnar.
Additionally, news circulated that Lesnar had walked out of WWE. On top of that, Vince McMahon‘s retirement news also covered the pro wrestling world. This led to people speculating about Lesnar’s walking out because of Vince’s retirement.

But in the main event, it was Theory and The Usos vs The Street Profits and Madcap Moss in a six-man tag match. When Theory used his Money in the Bank briefcase to end the match in a DQ. But to save the day, Lesnar’s music hits and he strolls into the ring. Giving him 2 F5s and some shots with the briefcase, SmackDown ended with Lesnar standing tall.
