Brock Lesnar, hailed as one of the most versatile athletes in the history of combat and entertainment sports, has been a key asset to WWE for years. Following his last match against Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam in 2023, Lesnar has been absent from in-ring appearances. However, with his connection to Vince McMahon’s trafficking lawsuit, a WWE Hall of Famer truly believes Lesnar will never return to WWE ever again.
Brock Lesnar has attained notable milestones in his WWE career, driven by his ruthless aggression and larger-than-life personality. He is called The Beast Incarnate and that is more accurate than most nicknames for pro wrestlers, as he was truly a beast in the ring, with a commanding presence whenever he competed.
WWE Is Scrubbing All Traces Of Brock Lesnar After Vince McMahon’s Lawsuit
Brock Lesnar’s hyped return to WWE television at the Royal Rumble was scrapped due to a s*x trafficking lawsuit filed against Vince McMahon and WWE. Lesnar, initially unnamed, was later identified by people mentioned in The Wall Street Journal’s report. Because of this, Bron Breakker took Brock Lesnar’s place in the Royal Rumble match and had a solid showing.
Brock Lesnar was also recently removed from WWE’s 2K Supercard mobile game, raising speculation about his potential exclusion from all future 2K games and licensed products, akin to the removal of Chris Benoit in 2007 and Hulk Hogan back in 2015 as well.
Mike Johnson of PWInsider reported that multiple readers noticed Lesnar’s absence from the WWE 2K Supercard Digital Collectible Game online. Upon inquiry, it has been confirmed that Lesnar was indeed removed from the game.
“Several PWInsider.com readers sent word that Brock Lesnar has disappeared from the WWE 2K Supercard Digital Collectible Game online. In asking around, we have confirmed Lesnar was indeed pulled from the game.”
In response to the aforementioned developments, WWEShop.com discounted a substantial portion of Brock Lesnar’s merchandise, suggesting an attempt to distance themselves from him. It’s important to note that Lesnar has not faced criminal accusations or arrests. However, given the FBI investigation into Vince McMahon, the situation could potentially escalate.
WWE Hall Of Famer Believes Brock Lesnar’s Return Is Unlikely After Vince McMahon’s Trafficking Scandal
While speaking on his 83 Weeks podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff talked about Brock Lesnar’s future in WWE after he was named in Vince McMahon’s lawsuit. Bischoff stated that he believes Brock Lesnar lacks motivation to return to wrestling and would prefer to focus on his farm
Eric Bischoff mentioned Lesnar’s financial stability and suggested that Lesnar, while not necessarily driven by a passion for the business, is likely to compete again for a substantial payday.
”I don’t think he’s (Brock Lesnar) motivated to be a public person or is going to try to reclaim his fame, if you will, for lack of a better term. And he’s got enough money, he doesn’t need it.”
“Obviously, he was going to get back involved in the business again but if you can put five or seven or eight million dollars in your bank account after putting in a couple days work, who’s not going to do that?
According to Eric Bischoff, Brock Lesnar’s main objective is to accumulate wealth and invest in his farming ventures rather than trying to revive his wrestling career.
”If you’re physically capable of doing it, whether you love the business or not, if you’re smart, you’ll do it. Stack that cash, go buy another farm, go buy another one of those $700,000 John Deere tractors or whatever they are, plant more potatoes or soybeans or whatever it is you do on your farm. That’s what I would think Brock’s going to do. I don’t think there’s any motivation on his part to try to resurrect his career.”
Fans might just have to accept the fact that Brock Lesnar will not be returning to WWE television ever again after his implication in Vince McMahon’s lawsuit. Nonetheless, we will have to wait and see what Brock Lesnar will do next.
