Update On Why Brock Lesnar Went Off-Script During WWE Elimination Chamber Match

WWE held this year's Elimination Chamber PLE on February 19, 2022, at the Jeddah Super Dome in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, making it the first to take place outside of the United States, and the first to be held on a Saturday. It was also WWE's first previously-established event to take place in the country.

In the main event Brock Lesnar conquered the competition in his first Elimination Chamber Match to win the WWE Championship and punch his ticket to The Show of Shows for a Title vs. Title Match against Universal Champion Roman Reigns.



Later it was reported that Brock Lesnar Went Off-Script At WWE Elimination Chamber. There was a moment during the match, With Lashley being taken out of the chamber and ruled ineligible by medics due to concussion protocols, Lesnar got tired of waiting and burst through the plexiglass of his pod to enter the match, immediately dispatching both Rollins and Riddle with a pair of quick F-5s.

Mike Johnson of PWInsider previously noted that this wasn’t something planned beforehand for the bout.

Now, New details are being revealed on WWE Champion Brock Lesnar going off-script at the Elimination Chamber last weekend.



WWE had already removed Lashley from the match with the injury angle. The timer went off for Lashley’s entrance and the idea was that his pod would still open for his entrance as it was his turn to come in, but he wasn’t there. Lesnar obviously knew Lashley was going to be taken out of the match, but he did not know they were going to signal for Lashley’s pod to open, according to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.

It was noted that Lesnar figured he was next, but he also knew that WWE was running low on time and had a hard-out for when the show had to be over. Lesnar reportedly thought Lashley’s pod opening was a mistake, and that his pod was supposed to open, so he physically broke out of his pod, and then entered the match.

The other participants apparently knew there would be a quick rush to the finish, and they still had spots to do, before Lesnar came in, but they also knew that when Lesnar came in, it was time to just get destroyed. They may have figured things were rushed anyway because they were likely to have to rush even more through Lesnar eliminating everyone if Lesnar would’ve waited a few more minutes.
