Eat...Sleep...Conquer....CHAMPION!
Wrestling Lockup with Brandon is here, brought to you by Triple Threat Podcast. Last night on RAW began the "Era of The Beast" as the newly crowned WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Brock Lesnar's, run as champ began. Lesnar destroyed John Cena at SummerSlam with his UFC style ground and pound, 16 german suplexes and 2 "F-5's". What are we in for with Lesnar as the face of the company now? Will John Cena be the same after taking probably the worst beating of his life? Let's get this week's RAW recap started live from Las Vegas, Nevada.
