Why WWE Isn’t In Talks With Brock Lesnar About Return

Brock Lesnar has not returned to WWE, but that won’t stop the rumor mill from generating a lot of stories. Many fans are hoping to see him again soon and that wait might be a considerable one at this point.

We previously reported that AEW and Brock Lesnar are not in talks either. In fact, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter confirmed that Lesnar is not in talks with any company including the UFC and Bellator. The most obvious place for him to return is WWE, but that hasn’t happened yet.

It was noted that WWE is holding off on negotiations with the former champion. It just isn’t the right time to bring him back yet. The smarter timing would be to include Lesnar in WrestleMania plans next year, so that means they have far more time to work out a new deal if needed.

He also has not been in negotiations with WWE because of the idea it’s not smart timing for what is likely a Mania in 2022 through 2024 to make a deal now when the competition is likely to only raise his value and the money he could get when they want him and when he wants to come back for maximum interest
