Backstage Update On Talks Between Brock Lesnar & WWE

A new update has come to light regarding the talks between Brock Lesnar and WWE about a possible return to the company.

According to Andrew Zarian, Lesnar is unlikely to appear at SummerSlam for creative reasons, but talks have taken place and he’ll probably return soon even if it’s not at SummerSlam.

On the latest Mat Men podcast, Zarian said:

“They wanted Brock. For whatever reason, the plan didn’t work out. I believe it was creative-wise, it just wasn’t fitting. Financially, they want Brock to commit to live shows. They are working it out, it’s gonna happen. It’s not that it’s not gonna happen – it’s gonna happen unless something goes tremendously terrible, which I don’t think it will. I think we’re gonna see Brock, I just don’t think he’s needed for SummerSlam if they have this planned out already. If Brock calls them and says, ‘Hey I wanna do it’ then yeah, they’re gonna figure it out. I don’t believe Brock’s gonna be on there… I don’t know about Brock right now. I know that he’s in the plans. They’re gonna do something with him, I just don’t know what yet.”

Paul Heyman has actually changed his Facebook profile photo to one of Brock Lesnar standing over Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 31, but it’s unclear whether that actually means anything.

The plans for SummerSlam currently include Roman Reigns vs John Cena, and Edge vs Seth Rollins.
