Potential update on Brock Lesnar’s return
Brock Lesnar is one of the biggest attractions in WWE. The Beast Incarnate has currently been out of action since SummerSlam this year. Being a fan favorite, rumors and speculations around Lesnar’s next appearance are a hot topic among the fans. Recently, a report claimed that WWE is approaching Lenar for an appearance at an upcoming event.
According to Xero News, WWE wants Brock Lesnar to perform at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia. The report suggests, “They did want Brock for Crown Jewel, but it has not been confirmed to be on the cards yet, so if not, expect to see Lesnar in January“. However, his appearance at the upcoming premium live event is still obscure.
If Lesnar doesn’t show up at the Saudi event next month, then there’s a very good possibility that he will return at the time of the Royal Rumble next year. It will possibly begin a feud for WrestleMania 40. Furthermore, there have been rumors that if Brock appears at Crown Jewel, he might face Bronson Reed.
