Brock Lesnar is the current WWE Universal Champion, and he’s set to defend his title against Roman Reigns, Samoa Joe and Braun Strowman in a fatal four-way match at SummerSlam. It’s been rumored that Brock Lesnar could be returning to UFC, and Paul Heyman threw more gasoline on that fire Monday night on Raw when he declared that Brock will be leaving WWE if he loses the Universal Title at SummerSlam.

Regardless of whether or not Brock ends up losing the Universal Title at the biggest party of the summer, he’s signed on with WWE through WrestleMania 34, so if he does decide to leave the company he won’t be able to do so until 2018. Before Brock Lesnar signed his current WWE deal a few years ago, he made it well known that he was considering a return to UFC.
In the end Brock signed a new WWE deal, and the company allowed him to fight at UFC 200, so he got to have his cake and eat it too.
The always hilarious WWE Creative Humor Twitter account posted a nice joke about Brock’s status, and it caught Randy Orton’s attention.
Get the new Brock Lesnar "Eat. Sleep. Threaten to leave for UFC when your contract is up to get more money. Repeat." shirt #Merch

On Friday Eva Marie took to social media to announce that she has officially parted ways with World Wrestling Entertainment. WWE later confirmed that Eva Marie is no longer a WWE Superstar and wrestling fans all over the world had some interesting reactions to her departure.
Shortly after Eva Marie made her big announcement, Rusev took to Twitter and shared a post that many fans have presumed is about Eva when he noted that he hates to see legends retire.

As we’ve seen in the past, Rusev has absolutely no filter when it comes to Twitter. He proved that when he posted the following gem shortly after Shane McMahon’s helicopter crash a few weeks ago:
When you don't respond to my video messages you land in the ocean @shanemcmahon #carma #WWEBattleground

Pretty sure the Rusev tweet was referring to Nashville Predators great Mike Fisher, who just announced his retirement. Rusev is a huge Preds fan.
Hockey, sadly, gets no love these days, so I’m not surprised no one thought of that
