Brock Lesnar returned to the professional wrestling ring for the first time in two years on Summerslam on Sunday evening.
The shocking and controversial moment took place after the second action of the Premium Live event was completed when John Cena was in the ring. It only came a few weeks after Daniel Cormier claimed that he was 'banned' from the TKO group, which includes both UFC and WWE.
Lesnar is one of the most decorated WWE super stars in history, but also has an enormous history in the Octagon. He won UFC heavyweight gold in just his fourth MMA fight by eliminating the legendary Randy Couture and went to defend that belt twice before he with fewer than ten fights with fewer than ten fights.
Brock Lesnar lets WWE return at Summerslam after the main event
Fans were both astonished at Metlife Stadium and looked at Netflix when Brock Lesnar returned for his first WWE appearance since August 2023 this Sunday. After a match between John Cena and Cody Rhodes who won the first, “the music of the Beast Incarnate hit and he came to the ring.
He quickly entered the ring where he hit his F5 movement on Cena, much to the delight of the crowd of New Jersey. He quickly left the ring, threw his cowboy hat back and went backstage while the show went out of the sky.
The last time Lesnar was seen on WWE programming was the same event in 2023 when he had a competition with Cody Rhodes. He was expected to have a number of competitions in 2024, but nobody flourished in the midst of controversy outside the ring.
WWE had no press conference after the show after the event, as has become usual in recent years. Chief content officer and the public face of the company Paul 'Triple H' Levesque tweeted: “The Beast is back.”
Daniel Cormier claimed that Brock Lesnar was on WWE and UFC 'Banned List'.
During a recent interview with colleague -legend Demetrious Johnson, Daniel Cormier was asked about the possibility of a WWE match between he and Lesnar. He laughed at the idea and joked that the wrestler was on the 'forbidden list' of the TKO group and that he would probably never be mentioned again.
“I mean, Brock is now on the forbidden list,” Cormier told Johnson, who seemed to be confused by what had happened. “Oh guy, Brock came in so many problems,” Cormier laughed. “I don't tell you in the air what Brock has done. Brock is so many problems.”
The details of the absence of WWE programming Lesnar are indeed unclear. The former UFC champion was officially mentioned in a lawsuit against former WWE -Baas Vince McMahon, although or that was the reason for his disappearance was never officially mentioned by the WWE, UFC or TKO group.
