The last time we saw WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar wrestle was at The Greatest Royal Rumble event in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. It had been expected that Lesnar’s next match would be at the upcoming Money In The Bank PPV, however that now does not appear to be the case.
Brock Lesnar and the WWE Universal Championship was discussed on today’s episode of Wrestling Observer Radio. Regarding Lesnar, Dave Meltzer had the following to say:
“Lesnar is not wrestling at the Money In The Bank pay-per-view for what it’s worth. I don’t know when he’s going to wrestle again. I thought it would make sense after the Greatest Royal Rumble because obviously, he’s going to wrestle again that [MITB] would be the show but in fact it’s not the show.”
“So he’s doing another show. He might have agreed to do a deal until SummerSlam. Or maybe the July show, but he’s not on this one.”
It remains to be seen what the company has planned for Lesnar, or when we will see him compete again. It has also been debated as to whether or not Lesnar is planning to re-enter the USDA pool to begin to serve out the remainder of his suspension before he is able to fight again in the UFC.
We will keep you updated when more information regarding Brock Lesnar or the WWE Universal Championship becomes known.
