Credit: WWE.comLast week, Paul Heyman vowed Brock Lesnar would be cashing in his Money in the Bank briefcase and the announcement was immediately met with skepticism. With fans quickly catching on to WWE's latest parlor trick, the promotion seemed to call their bluff as Raw went into overdrive with its show-long hype of Lesnar cashing in. Still, fans remained skeptical as evidenced by a poll from Wrestling Inc's Twitter feed where 94% of fans did not believe Lesnar would be cashing in. When all was said and done, cynicism prevailed and Lesnar—who had WWE Universal champion Seth Rollins dead to rights—screamed "Friday!" And as WWE continues to alienate its own fanbase with head-scratching stunts to boost its anemic viewership, AEW stands to benefit.
