Brock Lesnar might as well have been God on Monday night in Minneapolis.
The Man Who Ended The Streak returned to his hometown on WWE’s “Monday Night RAW” and, thanks to his manager Paul Heyman, was practically worshiped by the Target Center crowd.
But after The Undertaker threatened Lesnar via video message earlier in the show, The Deadman’s bells tolled and the lights went black during Lesnar’s main event. It was a similar scene to the one at WWE Battleground last month, in which Undertaker interrupted Lesnar’s bout with Seth Rollins — as the latter was on the verge of losing his heavyweight world champion’s belt.
It proved to be just a ruse — or so Heyman thought. Lesnar’s advocate went on one of his infamous rants, this time sounding off on how Lesnar won’t show Undertaker any respect Sunday.
Then the bells tolled again. This time, the reaper called.
For the second time in a month, The Undertaker surprised Lesnar in the ring. He led with a cheap shot to the groin, followed by a choke slam, and finished with a signature tombstone piledriver.

Lesnar was left stunned and belly-up on the mat, setting up a gargantuan battle at SummerSlam.
