In a bit of information indicating more substance to the Brock Lesnar return theory, the former WWE Universal Champion has been listed as an active performer in the WWE official website.
BROCK LESNAR HAS BEEN LISTED AS A WWE RAW SUPERSTAR
Even more interesting is the fact that he has been listed as a WWE Raw superstar. Lesnar’s name had used by superstars of the brand in the WWE Championship picture in recent weeks.
HIS NAME HAS RECENTLY BEEN UTTERED IN THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP STORYLINE OF WWE RAW
The name of the former WWE Universal Champion was uttered on the Monday Night show, the former flagship weekly event of WWE. The name was spoken due to a specific circumstance. Drew McIntyre and Kofi Kingston, both former WWE Champions, were involved in trash-talking each other ahead of their number one contender’s match for the championship, now held by Bobby Lashley.
McIntyre recalled that while he did defeat “The Beast Incarnate” to win the WWE Championship at WrestleMania, Kingston infamously ended his sole Championship reign with a squash defeat to the former MMA fighter. Bobby Lashley, the current WWE Champion, went on to note that they were reciting words about someone who did not even work for the company.
REPORTERS HAD THEORIZED A LESNAR RETURN TO WWE
Bryan Alvarez of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, on viewing the segment, especially Lashley’s words, had theorized them as an apparent indication by WWE about a future feud between Lashley and Lesnar. As the lines are scripted, he guesses that they were spoken for a reason, and just for display. He speculates that the match between the former MMA fighters, one that fans have longed for quite some time, may become a reality, as it may be WWE’s plan for Summerslam or WrestleMania 38.
“When I heard that I thought that they are building toward Lashley vs Lesnar. That is a match that they have not done. It is a match that people have been asking for a long time and maybe that’s their plan for SummerSlam. Maybe that is their plan for WrestleMania, etc,” Alvarez had reported.
