WWE Hall Of Famer “Doesn’t Blame” Brock Lesnar For Nixing Bray Wyatt Feud

Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar is set to return to WrestleMania to face the giant Omos but things could have been so much different with plans originally slating Lesnar to face Bray Wyatt.

Reports have suggested that Lesnar was the one who turned down the opportunity to work with Wyatt and the star who returned to WWE in October 2022 looked set to do battle with Bobby Lashley on The Grandest Stage Of Them All but that now looks to be in some doubt.

Speaking in an interview with WrestleBinge, WWE Hall of Famer Teddy Long says he doesn’t blame Brock Lesnar for turning down the Bray Wyatt match and says dealing with Wyatt and his antics isn’t Lesnar’s niche:

“I don’t blame him. That’s not his niche, so I don’t blame him. You do what you’re told if they ask you, but [you have to ask them] ‘why should I?'”
