The recent sexual trafficking allegations that made Vince McMahon resign from TKO also seem to have a domino effect on Brock Lesnar. It was reported that The Beast was pulled from the Royal Rumble after the lawsuit was filed. Former NXT Champion Bron Breakker replaced Lesnar and filled in those shoes. Additionally, it’s been revealed that the former UFC Champion was set to face 26-year-old heat magnet Dominik Mysterio at the Elimination Chamber.

That means Mysterio was originally slated to eliminate Lesnar from the Royal Rumble match. As the fans know, Bron Breakker ended up getting thrown over the top rope by Dom. At one point, WWE had plans for Brock Lesnar’s long-awaited dream match against Gunther at WrestleMania 40. If it weren’t for the obscene accusations filed by Ms. Janel Grant, Brock Lesnar would’ve returned at the Royal Rumble.

But it appears like he won’t be back for a long time. Unless WWE calls him back, it’s likely that Brock Lesnar will not be a part of this year’s WrestleMania. His nixed showdown against Gunther is surely a setback for the fans who were eagerly awaiting it. However, there’s been a wave of support for Bron Breakker to challenge Gunther at The Showcase of the Immortals.

It’s merely speculation at this point, and isn’t locked-in by any means. After the Royal Rumble, Breakker called the main roster his new home. It could mean he’s going to be officially called up to either of the two brands. Moreover, he has a history with The Ring General. Bron was the last man to pin Gunther before he moved on to the main roster.

What allegations were made against Brock Lesnar?

A question pops into mind: What was the magnitude of Brock Lesnar’s involvement in the aforementioned lawsuit? And to the point, it expunged the ex-UFC ace from WWE’s creative plans. The plaintiff, Janel Grant, claims that Vince McMahon used her as a medium to negotiate a new WWE contract for Brock Lesnar.

Not only that, the former WWE Chairman asked Grant to shoot exclusive adult content for Brock. Once the latter put pen to paper, McMahon then shared Janel’s personal cellphone number to The Beast.

According to a line in the lawsuit, Lesnar allegedly asked Grant to shoot a video whilst urinating and send him the recording. It’s one of the many lecherous details that makes it uncomfortable for one to even read.
