Down The Ladder: Details On How WWE Arrived At Brock Lesnar vs. Omos At WrestleMania 39
They can change. We are less than three weeks away from WrestleMania 39 and the show is mostly put together. If a match has not been made, it has at least been hinted at and will likely be set up in the next week or so. That does not leave much to be done, but it does leave some matches that were never made in the first place. Now we know what some of those original ideas seem to have been.

As previously reported, WWE had pitched a Steve Austin vs. Brock Lesnar match for WrestleMania, with Austin turning it down. According to Sports Illustrated, the original plan for WrestleMania called for Lesnar to face Bobby Lashley, which was dropped to make way for the Austin match. A Lesnar vs. Bray Wyatt match was considered but never set. Gunther was another option for Lesnar, but WWE reportedly feels he is a year away from being ready for that match. Eventually, a match between Lesnar and Omos was announced for the show.
Those were some interesting options. Check out who was considered to face Lesnar at WrestleMania:

Opinion: Those are some interesting options but there is something a bit more fascinating about Omos being, at best, the fourth option for Lesnar at WrestleMania. Lesnar vs. Omos could be quite the spectacle, but I’m not sure how much it feels like a WrestleMania match. The good thing is that Lesnar has something to do, as his star power helps the show out quite a bit.
