ToggleBrock Lesnar is a part-time performer in the WWE ever since returning in the company in 2012. Despite all the backlashes from the critics claiming whether this role gives him a chance to become the champion in the WWE, the company heads did not hesitate to give him a long run with the coveted title that began at Wrestlemania 33.
Following his win at Royal Rumble, it was evident that he might not defend the championship until the next Wrestlemania.
However, a recently released schedule confirmed that the beast incarnate will be seen in action defending the title in the month of March. The opponent for him was also revealed in this show prior to the biggest event of the year.
According to the reports, WWE will be hosting a live event on March 3rd in Chicago, Illinois. With Wrestlemania 34 on the verge, the company is intended to deliver some power-packed matches.
Hence, the reigning Universal Champion Brock Lesnar was booked in this rare appearance to defend his championship.
For the first time in over 20 years, @WWE returns here with @BrockLesnar, @JohnCena and more! #WWEChicago
