Ricochet has opened up about his WWE Championship match against Brock Lesnar at Super ShowDown in 2020. The match took place in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on February 27, and saw Lesnar defeat the SmackDown star in just 90 seconds to retain the title. Ricochet had earned the right to challenge for the gold after defeating Seth Rollins and Bobby Lashley in a triple threat match on the February 3, 2020, episode of Monday Night RAW.
Last-minute change
During a recent interview with Alex McCarthy of MailOnline Sport, Ricochet revealed that he found out on short notice that Brock Lesnar was going to squash him during their WWE Title match at Super ShowDown.

Another match on the cards?
Before their match at Super ShowDown, Ricochet had helped eliminate The Beast from the 2020 Royal Rumble match after kicking him below the belt. This was payback for what the former WWE Champion did to him on an episode of RAW. Ricochet expressed interest in having another match against Brock Lesnar, and believes there’s an opportunity for it in the future.
