Brock Lesnar has prominently featured on the WrestleMania match card ever since coming back to the company.
It included two main event matches and perhaps a third one is in the making if the latest reports are any indications. However, the plans could change as we move forward to the biggest event of the year in 2020.
Update on Seth Rollins’ heel-turn
The Dirty Sheets reported that Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns vs. Seth Rollins was planned for the WrestleMania 36 main event.

However, the plan got canceled when Brock got moved to RAW instead and WWE officials are now planning The Fiend vs. Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship in the main event of WrestleMania 36.”
With that being said, Brock Lesnar would require a new opponent at WrestleMania 36 and it looks like he is up for the toughest challenge.
The creative team is currently thinking of doing Brock Lesnar vs. Tyson Fury at WrestleMania 36. We should note that this match was originally being discussed for Crown Jewel 2019.
But those plans were scrapped as WWE was able to sign Cain Velasquez. Considering the past beef between these two back in the UFC, WWE thought an organic feud could be created. So it resulted in a title match at Crown Jewel pay-per-view.
Later, Tyson Fury noted that he is up for the challenge thrown by the Beast Incarnate. In a recent interview, he clearly expressed his desire to face Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 36.
WWE would also like to do it since this could produce a money match garnering some mainstream attention.
But if a deal with Tyson Fury can’t happen, then sources believe that Vince McMahon will give Randy Orton another shot at Brock Lesnar and the WWE Championship.
This could be reward by The Viper for re-signing with the company, earlier this month. Brock Lesnar faced Orton at SummerSlam 2016 and defeated him via TKO in an encounter filled with blood.
