This week on RAW, Bobby Lashley faced Ricochet and Seth Rollins in the main event to determine who will face Brock Lesnar at the upcoming WWE Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia. The match was won by former US Champion Ricochet but as per backstage rumours, the ending was rushed and Ricochet and Lashley had to whisper the ending to each other.

It was revealed on WON, that Lashley and Ricochet might have been told to hurry up the ending sequence of the match as the show would have gone into overtime otherwise, jeopardizing Lesnar's appearance.

Here is what Bryan Alvarez stated:

They're just doing this match, they do the stacked up Superplex, and all of a sudden, Seth vanished off the face of the earth. Ricochet and Lashley start whispering to each other for about five seconds, and then Ricochet just goes up top, hits the 630 and wins. I think they must have been told that you got to go home right now. So they had to figure out what to do because Brock wind sprints down the ramp, F5, show goes off the air. They were very rushed there at the end.
