Ever since coming back to the WWE in 2012, Brock Lesnar has been a money-maker in the company like no other else. The company has strategically used to build a marquee attraction that turned out to be the best pay-per-view seller for the past decade. However, his days around professional wrestling are in jeopardy in the newly Endeavor-owned WWE especially after his name got involved in a lawsuit filed against Vince McMahon.
Following that lawsuit, WWE started keeping the two away from any references on their TV as well as content. Brock Lesnar was removed from any sort of creative plans of the company and he also got blocked from the characters on the WWE 2k24 game. Vince McMahon also sold a part of his shares in the TKO and was removed from the Board of the company.

It was further revealed that some sort of “movement” in WWE was noticed to bring Brock Lesnar back to the fold. But that’s possibly incorrect according to the follow-up reports provided by Sescoops. It was noted that the top WWE Star is not any closer to making a return to WWE and that he is not being considered to be in any creative capacity.

Brock Lesnar no longer a part of WWE’s creative plans
Brock Lesnar was pulled from the company’s creative plan where he was going to wrestle Dominik Mysterio at Elimination Chamber and then GUNTHER at WrestleMania 40. Regarding a movement on bringing back the former WWE Champion, it was stated that since this is a legal situation, nobody’s touching it,
“No one is going to get involved in that situation. This is a legal issue and until the lawyers decide that Brock is to be brought back, there is no movement at all, or a movement on his behalf.”
Brock Lesnar was last seen on WWE programming at SummerSlam 2023, where he featured in the final match of his trilogy with Cody Rhodes. He was thereafter headed on a hiatus and there’s since been no update on a return since his schedule is often closely guarded by the WWE officials.
