The segment that took place last Monday night on RAW where Lesnar destroyed Rey Mysterio and Mysterio’s son Dominic was reportedly the storyline reason for the match between Brock Lesnar & Cain Velasquez to be booked to take place at Crown Jewel. Following Friday’s WWE SmackDown, Cain Velasquez took part in an interview in which he said that he is looking to get “payback” on Lesnar.
