A spoiler regarding Brock Lesnar’s status for Night of Champions has been released online.

Oba Femi beat Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 42, after which Lesnar hinted at his retirement. Since it was a fake retirement, Lesnar returned to WWE a few weeks later on Raw and attacked Oba Femi, setting up their second clash at Clash in Italy, which Brock Lesnar won.

After beating The Ruler, Lesnar claimed that he was done with him. However, Femi made it very clear that he and Lesnar still had some unfinished business. According to the reports, Oba Femi and Brock Lesnar will meet again for a third and final match at SummerSlam 2026.

Before that rumored match, Femi is scheduled to take on Jey Uso in the final round of the King of the Ring 2026 tournament at Night of Champions on June 27.

Will Brock Lesnar Show Up at Night of Champions?

There is a rumor going around that Brock Lesnar might show up and cost his rival, Oba Femi, his match against Jey Uso in the KOTR. But, a tweet from HighSpotPodcast has claimed that Lesnar will not be at Night of Champions.

Brock Lesnar’s reported match against Femi at SummerSlam will potentially serve as his retirement match in his hometown of Minneapolis, Minnesota. He is expected to put Femi over in his retirement match.

Earlier, it was rumored that Lesnar was meant to retire at the hands of Gunther. However, Vince Russo claims that Lesnar refused to put The Ring General over because he wanted to “protect his character and money.”

Then we go to Gunther. Gunther is supposed to retire people. You know, he retired John Cena. He retired AJ Styles. And what have, I think Goldberg, didn’t he retire Goldberg too? Is that on the list? And what have they done with Gunther? Absolutely nothing. Which is, it is, I’m assuming, is behind the Brock Lesnar retirement.

Because they wanted Brock to put Gunther over, and Brock said no, because you put Gunther over John Cena and then you didn’t do anything with him. So that literally is Brock Lesnar looking to protect his character and protect his money, and I certainly understand that.”
