Brock Lesnar To Allegedly Return Next Year To Face Current WWE Champion

Brock Lesnar was last seen at SummerSlam 2023, where he lost a singles match to Cody Rhodes.

Lesnar has not returned to WWE due to the legal disputes he’s currently facing. He’s reportedly involved in lawsuits that complicate his relationship with WWE. He was named in a sexual abuse lawsuit filed against Vince McMahon by a former WWE employee, Janel Grant.

Moreover, ex-UFC star Daniel Cormier recently stated that The Beast Incarnate has also been placed on the TKO banned list, which restricts his participation in certain wrestling events. Despite all these reports, hardcore WWE fans are very hopeful that they might get to see The Conqueror inside the squared circle soon.

Even wrestling veteran Dutch Mantell firmly believes that Brock Lesnar will be back in WWE eventually, perhaps around next year.

On the Story Time with Dutch Mantell podcast, Dutch Mantell shared his thoughts on Brock Lesnar’s potential WWE return. He also hinted at an exciting matchup involving Lesnar and current WWE World Heavyweight Champion Gunther.

“I’m going to throw a match at you. What about Brock Lesnar versus Gunther? It might have some legs… I think Gunther and Brock Lesnar has a little bit of a box office appeal to it. I think they’re going to start talking about that. And remember, fans, you heard it here first, give it about a year. I’m speculating too. So, let’s speculate together,” Mantell said.

Sharing more insights on the Lesnar matter, renowned wrestling analyst commented that if The Beast is to return to WWE, the decision will solely depend on the lawyers, given his involvement in the McMahon sexual abuse lawsuit.
