1) Big Update On Brock Lesnar
Brock Lesnar’s last appearance on WWE television came at Wrestlemania 36. This came when Brock lost the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre. Over the past month or so, there have been plenty of rumors about WWE bringing back Brock to try and help with their ratings.
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer provided an update on Brock. Meltzer says that Brock is not expected to return for Summerslam or anytime soon. Here is what he wrote:
Lesnar is not scheduled for this year’s SummerSlam show. One of the reasons he put over McIntyre so strongly was because he was not coming back any time soon. Heyman has not been brought to television since he was let go as head of Raw creative.
Most signs point to McIntyre vs. Orton as the SummerSlam main event.
My Take:
- When Brock does return, I hope that they keep him out of the Title picture. I feel like I would rather see him feud with someone like Bobby Lashley instead of him facing Drew McIntyre again. That might just be me though.
