Brock Lesnar has been the subject of a sly dig from a controversial ex-WWE star.

Brock Lesnar shocked the world when he re-emerged in WWE at SummerSlam in 2025, where he decimated his old rival John Cena. Lesnar had not been seen in the company for two years after previous plans to bring him back were scrapped when he was named in the sexual abuse lawsuit filed against ex-WWE chairman Vince McMahon.

Lesnar has since returned to the ring at Wrestlepalooza, where he defeated Cena in their final encounter. He has disappeared once again, but recent teases by WWE have led many to believe that Lesnar could be on his way back again as part of a huge match.

But one former WWE star is no fan of Lesnar.

Matt Riddle Takes Shot At Brock Lesnar

During the recent MLW Symphony of Horrors, former WWE United States Champion Matt Riddle hit out at matchmaker Cesar Duran for not being given a shot at the MLW World Championship. Riddle told Duran that his matchmaking was worse than Brock Lesnar.

This is far from the first time that Riddle has taken a public shot at Brock Lesnar. Riddle had previously claimed that Lesnar stopped him from winning the 2022 Royal Rumble, but he has since walked back those remarks.
