Cain Velasquez was introduced to the WWE Universe by Rey Mysterio, and he immediately confronted his former UFC rival, Brock Lesnar, on SmackDown, which eventually set up their match at Crown Jewel last year.
Cain Velasquez had just one match in WWE, which was against Lesnar at the Saudi Arabia PPV. He lost the match in quick time.
On the recent edition of Sportskeeda’s Dropkick DiSKussions featuring Korey Gunz and Tom Colohue, the duo spoke about several topics.
Reason for Rey Mysterio-Cain Velasquez alliance
Tom revealed the reason why Rey Mysterio was placed with Cain Velasquez when the UFC fighter debuted in WWE.
Tom even spoke about Mysterio’s son Dominick, who featured briefly in Mysterio’s feud with Lesnar, and is preparing himself for a career in the ring.
In the same podcast, they also spoke about what Velasquez did that rubbed people the wrong way in WWE, and the three big mistakes that led to his release.
