After wrestling each other twice, WWE is planning a third match between Cody Rhodes and Brock Lesnar, but it won’t happen right away.
The two stars have had a feud and have a 1-1 record in singles competition. Rhodes won at Backlash before losing to Lesnar at Night of Champions when Rhodes passed out in a kimura.
As PWMania.com previously reported, WWE is considering a match stipulation not seen in years for their SummerSlam match on August 5.
WWE is planning to have Rhodes wrestle Dominik Mysterio, according to WWE insider BoozerRasslin. There are two possible paths to this match: a mixed tag team match or a temporary alliance with World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins to eliminate Judgment Day.
If WWE went with the mixed tag team match, it’s unclear who Rhodes would partner with to face RAW Women’s Champion Rhea Ripley. It’s possible that WWE brings in Brandi for the feud.
Brandi referenced Ripley on Twitter last week, as can be seen below:
Papa wont hit Mami… but Mommy will.
