WWE Selling Off Brock Lesnar Merch

Are WWE trying to distance themselves from Brock Lesnar? 

PWInsider noted that WWEshop.com have placed 99% of Lesnar's merchandise on discount sale, another indication that WWE are moving away from The Beast Incarnate.

Lesnar was originally scheduled to return to WWE in the men's 2024 Royal Rumble match. However, just days before the show he was implicated in the lawsuit filed by Janel Grant against Vince McMahon, John Laurinaitis, and WWE. 

Lesnar's spot in the Rumble was subsequently given to NXT's Bron Breakker.

Though not named in the suit, The Wall Street Journal did name Lesnar as the WWE star and former UFC Heavyweight Champion referred to in it.

The 46-year-old was also removed from the WWE Supercard game and is expected to be downplayed by 2K and other WWE licensees in the wake of Grant's lawsuit, which alleges that McMahon used her as a sexual pawn in his attempts to re-sign Lesnar to a new WWE contract in 2021. 

The lawsuit alleges that one of the conditions of Lesnar's comeback was that he could "f**k" Grant, who was also instructed to produce personalised sexual content for the multi-time former WWE Champion (after being directed to do so by McMahon).

Though two sexual encounters were allegedly arranged between Lesnar and Grant, neither ended up happening. 

Lesnar has not made any public comment since news of the lawsuit broke.
