Brock Lesnar Creative Plans Didn’t Fit For WWE Return

Brock Lesnar has yet to make a return to WWE despite re-appearing on the company’s official roster page recently. Paul Heyman also added more fuel to the fire with a recent Facebook update. The company wanted him to make a return, but that didn’t pan out.

On a recent Mat Men Pro Wrestling podcast, Andrew Zarian spoke about WWE’s initial desire to bring back Brock Lesnar. It was said that things didn’t work out on a creative end and he wasn’t needed for SummerSlam. This report comes in spite of claims that SummerSlam is an “all hands on deck” situation.

“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 yea, 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.”

We’ll have to see if Brock Lesnar surprises fans once again. His deals are always kept very secretive and it’s really nothing new for Vince McMahon to make plans with the intention of scrapping them because Brock Lesnar is in the picture, but nobody knows it yet.

Keep checking back with Ringside News as we continue covering his ongoing situation.
