Chris Jericho will step into the ring Friday night on Rampage in a six-man tag team match, teaming with Sammy Guevara and Jake Hager against Scorpio Sky, Ethan Page and former UFC heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos.
But this won’t be the first time Jericho has faced off against a former UFC heavyweight champ.
Five years ago, Brock Lesnar headlined WWE’s SummerSlam in a match against Randy Orton. The encounter did not play out the way the crowd—or even the WWE roster—had anticipated. During the match, Lesnar removed his gloves and hit Orton with a vicious flurry of elbows and strikes, leaving Orton lying in a pool of his own blood as the match was awarded to Lesnar via a rare TKO.
