WWE Night of Champions will take place on May 27 in Saudi Arabia. The grand event will feature a rematch from Backlash, where Cody Rhodes will square off against Brock Lesnar. Rhodes and Lesnar had a physical match in Puerto Rico, where The American Nightmare stunned The Beast Incarnate. Fans now want to know who will win Brock Lesnar vs Cody Rhodes match in Saudi Arabia.
There is a massive possibility that WWE completes a trilogy of matches between Rhodes and Lesnar, with the final match taking place at Money in the Bank in the United Kingdom. If Lesnar wants to stay a relevant as a beast, he cannot afford to suffer another clean defeat at the hands of Rhodes.
On the other hand, WWE also wants to build Rhodes up as a credible challenger for Roman Reigns. There are very few Superstars in the company who can believably take the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship off Roman’s shoulder. One of them is Cody Rhodes.

So, Rhodes can elevate himself to the next level if he pulls off another win against Brock Lesnar. Perhaps, WWE can then book him to win the Money in the Bank contract in the UK, and then, he ends up winning the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship.
Early predictions for who will win Cody Rhodes vs Brock Lesnar match in Saudi Arabia
Saudi Arabian premium live events have been a strong point of Lesnar’s career. He has an envious win-loss record in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which is why the chances of Lesnar losing to Cody Rhodes are low. However, because of a future WWE Undisputed Universal Championship reign, Rhodes can earn a win over Lesnar as well.

Our prediction is that Rhodes will defeat Lesnar at Night of Champions. Perhaps, this match will be more brutal than the one they had in Puerto Rico, but Rhodes should go over.
Prediction: Cody Rhodes to defeat Brock Lesnar at WWE Night of Champions 2023.
