Brock Lesnar shocked the WWE Universe with his return at Summerslam 2021. Going after the Universal Champion Roman Reigns, he set up a match at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia. But whatever be the case, he remains the biggest box office attraction in the WWE who will work in a part-time schedule in the WWE. He’s obviously under a lucrative deal with the company that allows him to work on only a few dates.
As noted, Brock Lesnar will be engaged in a slugfest with Roman Reigns on October 21st. As it turns out, that is reportedly the first and last time that the fans will see the challenger to compete this year inside the squared circle. Once the PPV event is over, The Beast Incarnate will be off for another hiatus.

According to a report from Wrestling News, Crown Jewel wraps up the schedule for Brock Lesnar in 2021. He won’t participate at the Survivor Series PPV in November and won’t be back until the Royal Rumble in January 2022.
“Also, we were told that after Crown Jewel, Lesnar is not scheduled for any more WWE shows this year and the next time he is scheduled to wrestle is during the Royal Rumble pay-per-view in St. Louis. The 2022 Royal Rumble is scheduled for Saturday, January 29 at The Dome at America’s Center.”
Brock Lesnar Vs. Roman Reigns Program Won’t End At WWE Crown Jewel 2021
Brock Lesnar isn’t winning title at Crown Jewel
That being said, it’s easy to understand the outcome of the Universal Title match at Crown Jewel 2021. Roman Reigns is already the favorite to retain against the longest-reigning Universal Champion, per the betting odds. Brock Lesnar’s mandatory time-off will allow the Tribal Chief to continue with his title reign.
The source also noted that Roman’s Universal Title reign will not come to an end in 2021. This is because WWE doesn’t plan on ending the program between Reigns and Brock Lesnar at Crown Jewel. Hence, another match is expected between the two, next year.
Previously, The Rock was rumored to compete against Roman Reigns for the Universal Title at Wrestlemania 38. But due to The Great One’s unavailability, another Wrestlemania main event between Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar is expected to go down at the AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas.
