Video Package - Royal Rumble 2022 Recap

We head into a video package highlighting the big pay-per-view event before we head to the inside of the Heritage Bank Center in Cincinnati, Ohio as the pyro explodes across the top of the stage and we are officially live! We are officially welcomed by Jimmy Smith on commentary at ringside as he is joined by both Corey Graves and Byron Saxton. The three give their opinions and comments about last night's Royal Rumble pay-per-view event.

In-Ring - Adam Pearce

Next we head to the ring where Mike Rome introduces Adam Pearce to the ring. Pearce welcomes the fans in the Cincinnati, Ohio arena and gives his opinions on last night's pay-per-view as well, noting the performance of Brock Lesnar and Ronda Rousey as well as the NEW WWE Champion, Bobby Lashley. The crowd gives mixed reviews as Pearce continues on and says we are officially on The Road to WrestleMania 38!

Pearce then points out there is still one roadblock, and that is the WWE Elimination Chamber. Pearce adds that Bobby Lashley will defend his title against five other Superstars in the Elimination Chamber when suddenly he is interrupted...

Bobby Lashley and MVP Join Pearce

The entrance theme sounds for the new WWE Champion, Bobby Lashley who is accompanied by MVP as they make their way out to the stage. MVP immediately begins to whine to Adam Pearce as he states that Lashley went through Hell last night to become WWE Champion, to which MVP states that it seems unfair that Lashley now has to defend it already against five other men inside the most brutal match in WWE history.

MVP declares that it's bull****! At this point Bobby Lashley chimes in stating that ring now he should be out celebrating his victory, adding who the Hell does Pearce think he is? Lashley continues on to state that he already knew he was the better man, the better athlete and the better fighter. He beat Brock in the middle of the ring, so who’s the beast now? Who’s the Champion now?

Brock Lesnar Interrupts

That was all Brock Lesnar needed to hear, as his entrance music sounds in the Cincinnati, Ohio arena as the beast himself makes his way out in full ring gear, ready for action. Brock makes his way to the stage, then walks down the ramp and in to the ring with a smile spread across his face. He taunts Lashley as he does a a lap around the ring before making his way to the ropes and enters the ring.

At this point, Lesnar takes the microphone from Pearce and turns his attention to MVP as he states that MVP can shut up or he’ll shove the cane up his @ss. Brock then turns to Bobby Lashley as he asks if Lashley is going to stand there and pretend he won fair and square? From one athlete to another, where’s the pride in that? He only won because of Paul Heyman and Roman Reigns. Brock continues on to state he isn’t mad at Lashley, he even gives him kudos for their match.

He lost it but then entered the Royal Rumble and won it. And so he gets to choose his opponent at WrestleMania but Bobby doesn’t have to worry, because he’s facing Roman Reigns. However it does concern Bobby because, at WrestleMania, Brock Lesnar Vs. Roman Reigns will be title vs. title. See he’s dressed to fight, and he’s asking for his rematch right now! The crowd pops!

MVP immediately turns to Lesnar trying to keep him cool headed, but Lashley states that he is down and better yet, he informs Lesnar that he can beat him again. MVP again tries to talk Lashley out of it and tells Brock he has to go to the back of the line. At this point Lesnar shouts at Lashley that he’s a chicken s*** and this causes Bobby Lashley to go HAM.

MVP and Pearce continue to try and calm Bobby Lashley down at this point. Lashley seems to finally agree as he slowly makes his way out of the ring as he takes his leave alongside MVP. At this point, Adam Pearce announces that Brock will be in the Elimination Chamber match! Dun-dun-dunn! Lesnar stands in the ring looking up at Lashley who holds his championship belt high as he stands at the top of the stage, rubbing his victory in the face of Lesnar as his music continues to play over the speakers in the Ohio arena.

Lita says Becky is the GOAT and blazed a real trail that even saw women main event WrestleMania. Becky says that means a lot coming from a real legend like Lita – she may have gotten trouble once or twice for wearing her thong above her tousers like Lita.

Lita says she respects Becky and she never backs down from a challenge…. so how about they go one-on-one at Elimination Chamber? Becky immediately says no and starts justifying herself. Lita says that’s fine but if she’s scared she should really just say so. Becky takes the bait and says she’s not scared, she’ll fight her at Elimination Chamber.

That's All Folks!!
