Brock Lesnar Returning To WWE TV 'Very Soon'
Could we see Brock Lesnar back in time for the WWE Royal Rumble?
Jan 16, 2024
Brock Lesnar will be back on WWE TV very soon, according to Dave Meltzer's daily news update on F4WOnline.
Meltzer elaborated further on Wrestling Observer Radio, explaining:
"Maybe next week. I would think this would not be the week to have Brock Lesnar return, given this might be one of the lower rated shows considering they went against the football games and the Emmy Awards. If he’s going to return for the Rumble, next week would be the week. If he going to return after, it could be a couple weeks later.”
"I would presume he’s in the Rumble, and I presume any angle he’s going to do would be shot in the Rumble itself."
Brock has won the Royal Rumble match twice in his career - first in 2003, and again in 2022. He has a 50% success record in subsequent Mania title matches, winning in 2003 against Kurt Angle, but losing to Roman Reigns in 2022.
Lesnar's last match came at WWE SummerSlam 2023, where he lost a feud-ending match to Cody Rhodes, showing respect towards the American Nightmare after the final bell. He also competed at last year's WrestleMania, defeating Omos on night two of the event.
