WWE is gearing themselves up for Brock Lesnar's next Universal Championship defense at SummerSlam by booking a number one contender match at Extreme Rules next month.

Roman Reigns and Bobby Lashley have been confirmed for the number one match on July 15, and four more superstars are expected to be added to the match in order to make it a six-man match.

WWE recently released a poll on their website teasing other superstars such as Elias, Braun Strowman, Bobby Roode, Finn Balor, Kevin Owens, Dolph Ziggler, Drew McIntyre, Baron Corbin, and Seth Rollins could soon be added into the match.

Lesnar's advocate, Paul Heyman, has used this poll as fuel for a promo on his Facebook to rip into his client's potential opponents for the Universal Championship at this year's SummerSlam.

Sloppy Second Samoan

Heyman started by ripping into The Beast's most recent WWE opponent in The Big Dog, saying he's had too many chances to beat Brock recently and has failed at every attempt.

He said: "Roman Reigns? The second generation superstar who was second to beat Undertaker at WrestleMania, who failed in his second WrestleMania attempt to take the top title from Brock Lesnar, and similarly failed in his second attempt this year alone in Saudi Arabia?

"No, Brock Lesnar has no interest in the Sloppy Second Samoan!"

Punchline Lashley

Heyman also took shots at Lashley for his decisions to not compete vs Lesnar in division one college wrestling as well as not competing vs Lesnar in the UFC when he decided to take up MMA.

"Bobby Lashley? The Man Who Would Be Lesnar? The supposed college standout who won the NAIA Championship because he knew the competition for the Division 1 Championship was too fierce?

"By the way, remember, when Bobby won the NAIA Title that no one really cared about, Brock Lesnar was making national headlines winning the D1 Heavyweight Championship.

"When Bobby saw Brock Lesnar ascend to become the biggest box office attraction in UFC, Bobby knew he had no chance against Brock, so he hid behind Scot Coker's tomato cans in Strikeforce and Bellator, hoping to look good enough to graduate into a once-in-a-lifetime payday position against Brock Lesnar, who has never even heard about Bobby except the few times I mention Bobby's name to Brock, and always as the punchline to a joke about the pitiful level of pseudo-athletes who think they are even in Brock's league."

Heyman also ripped into Elias, Strowman, Roode, Balor, Owens, and Rollins, as well as Raw general manager Kurt Angle in the long Facebook post.

WWE fans will have to wait until the number one contender match for the Universal Championship at Extreme Rules to find out who Lesnar's SummerSlam opponent will be.

However, if Heyman is to be believed, none of them will be good enough to dethrone The Beast Incarnate at WWE's biggest party of the summer.
