It’s been a year since wrestling fans saw Brock Lesnar in WWE. His last performance inside the ring was at SummerSlam 2023, where he lost to Cody Rhodes and even broke character to endorse Rhodes after the match.
WWE has refrained from mentioning Lesnar on television since the 10-time world champion’s name came up in Janel Grant’s lawsuit against former WWE Chairman Vince McMahon. Despite several rumors of his potential return surfacing now and then, WWE appears to be in no hurry to bring The Beast Incarnate back.
The company’s Chief Content Officer, Triple H, made the following statement when talking to Mail Sport about the possibility of a Brock Lesnar return.
“You’d have to ask Brock Lesnar that. Brock does his own thing. So, he’s up in Canada, I’m sure, watching his kids play hockey and enjoying life. If and when he decides that he would like to do something, we’d be open to the conversation. But, we’ll see.”

Brock Lesnar Was Recently Spotted With A New Look
While the fans have been wondering the whereabouts of Lesnar, a recent photo of the former WWE Champion has surfaced on social media. He’s sporting a Wolverine-like look in the picture and looks to have lost some significant weight.
Wrestling fans had grown used to seeing Lesnar in his signature muscular physique, and this picture comes out as a shock for them as they have started to wonder if this could be a sign that they might never see The Beast Incarnate compete inside the ring again.
What Are The Chances Of Brock Lesnar’s WWE Return?
While Triple H mentioned that it’s up to Brock Lesnar’ to decide about a potential comeback to the WWE, it is undeniable that there is more to the story.
WWE had plans to have Lesnar face Dominik Mysterio at Elimination Chamber 2024 and face Gunther at WrestleMania 40, but all plans went to scrap after the Janel Grant lawsuit. It appears the chances of Brock Lesnar’s WWE return are slim to none unless his name gets cleared.
With WWE moving on to its next chapter with a move to Netflix in January, it’s unfortunate the company couldn’t use a high-profile star like Lesnar. Wrestling fans have no choice but to play the waiting game until they find out if Lesnar can return to the ring or get erased from WWE history.
