WWE Didn’t Protect Brock Lesnar: “A Little Bit Awkward And Uncomfortable”

Brock Lesnar was destroyed on last week’s episode of WWE Raw.

The March 16, 2026, episode of Monday Night Raw saw Lesnar make a surprise return to help his longtime advocate, Paul Heyman, against Seth Rollins and a group of masked men. Lesnar cleared the ring and was about to get his hands on Rollins when Oba Femi’s music hit.

Femi had an intense stare-down with Lesnar in the ring, while Rollins sneaked out. Moments later, Oba Femi picked Lesnar up and dropped him on the mat with a massive powerbomb.

Femi stood tall over The Beast Incarnate and placed his foot on his chest as he pointed towards the WrestleMania 42 sign. This officially confirmed that Femi will challenge Brock Lesnar at the Showcase of the Immortals this year.

Maven Huffman Reacts To Brock Lesnar Getting Destroyed on WWE Raw

Ex-WWE star Maven Huffman reviewed last week’s episode of WWE Raw on his YouTube channel. While commenting on Lesnar and Femi’s segment, Maven pointed out that WWE could have booked it slightly differently so Lesnar didn’t look so weak.

Lesnar has a reputation as a dominant force in the wrestling world, but Femi lifting him so easily made him look vulnerable, which Maven said does not suit Lesnar’s legacy.

They didn’t protect Brock, his legacy, his toughness, by having it done the way they did it. They should have. They had him chase Seth out, and then the timing just wasn’t perfect as he turned.

It was a beat too long for Oba picking him up. It was just a tiny bit too much, to where it was a little bit awkward and uncomfortable. You see, timing is everything. (From 2:29 to 3:00)
