A WWE Hall of Famer is hopeful that Brock Lesnar will make his return for a big reason after seemingly retiring at WrestleMania 42.

Brock Lesnar is arguably the most decorated star in the world of pro wrestling and combat sports. Aside from winning many accolades in the WWE, The Beast Incarnate has also won the UFC Heavyweight Championship during his career. Lesnar has been a topic of discussion since he left his boots in the ring in an emotional moment after losing to Oba Femi at WrestleMania.

Many fans believe that Brock Lesnar has now retired from pro wrestling after the moment at Mania 42, and a section of fans and the wrestling community believe that Lesnar would still be back in the ring. Meanwhile, the WWE Hall of Famer, Mark Henry, has expressed his thoughts on the same.

Brock Lesnar may return to WWE for a major reason

Speaking with ITR Wrestling recently, Mark Henry said that he is hopeful Brock Lesnar will return to WWE this summer, as this year’s SummerSlam will take place in Brock’s home state, Minnesota, and he deserves a proper goodbye:

I hope Brock comes back because of this simple reason. SummerSlam is going to be in Minnesota, where he is from and it would be a classic place to retire at home. And to give the fans the chance to give you your respect the way it should be done. I respect Brock, his legacy, he has got a lot left to go, in my opinion.”

Mark Henry also weighed in on Lesnar wanting to spend time away from wrestling with his kids, but Mark is hopeful that Brock still takes time to entertain fans:

But, he said that he misses his children. That he’s not being a good father to them because he misses their hocket game. That he’s missing personal things that happen. No father wants to miss their kid’s life. What if your kid comes up and goes, ‘you don’t love me like you love the other kids because you don’t come to my events.’ How would you feel? So, I want Brock to have those moments with his children. I just think that there’s a happy medium. There’s a way to fix it where he can be with his family and still be able to entertain us.” [h/t ITRWrestling]

Fans will have to wait and see if Brock will return for SummerSlam this year.
