5 Reasons Why WWE ended MITB with Brock Lesnar 

You did it again, Vince. You found a way to bring shock value to a show that was good when it wasn't required. But I digress? Is it really worth going over why Vince McMahon would do this again and again? Brock Lesnar is a brand on to himself and quite possibly the greatest wrestling troll the world has ever seen.

Now, the WWE Universe may have liked the PPV and probably didn't care for the fact that Brock Lesnar ended the show. It's quite remarkable that he started with a loss at WrestleMania 35 but ended with a ''win" at Money in the Bank 2019. Is it really a win or just something thrown together at the last minute to get us interested in the WWE product?

There are a multitude of reactions online that reflect the state of mind of certain WWE fans. The match was going well and they definitely got the crowd thrilled, but alas, the ending did kill what was a great main-event. It's similar to how audiences are screaming at the TV on the way Game of Thrones ended.

Now, despite my distaste of The Beast coming back and still be in the title frame, let's look at this in logical fashion. As Spock once said, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few or the one.

Here are 5 reasons why Brock Lesnar won the MITB briefcase and ended the show.

#5 Brock Lesnar is The Shockmaster

Brock Lesnar. The Beast Incarnate. The Conqueror. I would prefer to give him another nickname. The Shockmaster. No, I'm talking about that failed WCW character which has lived on in infamy. I'm talking about the fact that Brock Lesnar has always come through from providing shock value. It's like Vince McMahon realized that he can turn to Brock Lesnar every time he needed to get shocking reactions from the audience.

Whether it was ending The Undertaker's streak at WrestleMania 30, becoming Universal Champion for the second time, interrupting a Hell in a Cell match between Roman Reigns and Brawn Strowman. Brock Lesnar has had a habit of shocking audiences everywhere he goes as he has already made many footprints in WWE History.

#4 Boosting the TV Ratings

Is it the fair to say that Seth Rollins is not a ratings draw? Not really... but it can be speculated that Vince McMahon probably thought he needed to give people a reason to watch WWE Raw or SmackDown this week. The ratings have been declining for a while. Will Brock Lesnar give it the boost he needs? Only time will tell.

#3 Cementing Brock Lesnar's Heel status

Brock Lesnar is the true definition of a heel. He doesn't play to the crowd. He does what he has to do and gets paid well while doing it. Brock Lesnar is not the best talker in the world but his facial expressions and physicality tell a different story. When he sat at the top of the ladder at Money in the Bank 2019, his laughter pretty much sealed the deal.

#2 To justify the Super Showdown event in Saudi Arabia

It's been made quite clear that Brock Lesnar will be part of the Super Showdown show in Saudi Arabia. While it's unclear at this time who Brock Lesnar will be facing, he might be able to cash in his Money In The Bank briefcase at the event.

Will he be facing Seth Rollins for the WWE Universal Championship? Will he take on Kofi Kingston for the WWE Championship? The WWE Universe will be finding it out soon enough.

#1 Brock Lesnar is an extension of Vince McMahon

Vince McMahon is pretty much solidifying his hold on the WWE by putting Brock Lesnar again in the championship picture. The Beast Incarnate is an extension of him with Paul Heyman acting as his mouthpiece. Don't be surprised if you see Paul Heyman doing a promo that sounds a lot like Mr. McMahon on this week's Raw.
