Brock Lesnar WWE

Brock Lesnar has been confirmed for WrestleMania 42 in Las Vegas.

WWE dropped the teaser for the premium live event, revealing Brock Lesnar, Cody Rhodes, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk as the top faces of the company.

Roman Reigns will likely continue his brawl with The Vision or even Seth Rollins, while CM Punk might be involved in a feud with Jey Uso. On the other hand, The Beast will likely have a creative angle revived from the past.

Brock Lesnar might face Gunther at WrestleMania 42

Mybookie has Gunther as the odds favorite to face The Beast Incarnate at The Grandest Stage of All.

According to Fightful Select, the match was initially scheduled for WrestleMania 40, but Brock Lesnar’s involvement was complicated by a lawsuit against Vince McMahon filed by former employee Janel Grant. The company had to halt all creative plans for him.

The global juggernaut had to wait until it was legally cleared to bring him back to the ring. Now that he is back, the creative team might revive this angle for The Beast and The Ring General.

In fact, if Gunther becomes John Cena’s final opponent and does defeat The Champ, it can set him to be the man who takes down the titans of the industry.
