Wrestling fans are buzzing with anticipation as Brock Lesnar has been speculated to return to WWE television. Since his defeat at SummerSlam against Cody Rhodes, The Beast Incarnate has been absent from WWE programming. This left his fans wondering about his next move. However, it was recently reported that Lesnar won’t grace the ring until 2024.
With the Royal Rumble just a month away and Brock Lesnar’s name featured on promotional posters of WrestleMania 40 production trucks, anticipation is building. As 2023 comes to an end, and reports of Lesnar not coming until the end of the year have proven true, questions arise about WWE’s plans for The Beast Incarnate.
The Royal Rumble is just around the corner, and fans speculate that Brock Lesnar might make a surprise appearance. According to reports from SESCOOPS, while there’s no confirmation about Lesnar’s involvement in the January 27 Royal Rumble, he is allegedly slated for a grand return at WrestleMania 40. The venue for this event is set in Philadelphia, promising an electrifying atmosphere for the Beast Incarnate’s comeback.
Details about Lesnar’s opponent remain undisclosed, especially with the recent landscape shifts following CM Punk’s return at Survivor Series: WarGames. Meanwhile, Roman Reigns’ WrestleMania 40 plan are unchanged. Thus, it will be interesting to see whether or not Brock Lesnar makes an appearance on the first episode of WWE RAW in 2024.
Potential match for WWE Superstar Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 40
WrestleMania 40 could see WWE Superstar Brock Lesnar face off against the Ring General, Gunther. The latter is the current longest-reigning Intercontinental Champion.
Their brief but explosive encounter at the 2023 Royal Rumble left fans hungry for more. So, WrestleMania 40 in Philadelphia could be the ultimate feast. However, the possibility of Brock Lesnar challenging for the Intercontinental championship is slim. WWE could book Lesnar to cost Gunther his championship, ultimately leading to a match at WrestleMania 40.
As such, the clash between Lesnar and the dominant Ring General could promise a must-see match at the grandest stage.
