Brock Lesnar is one of the most feared competitors in WWE and he recently made his return to the company during the special 30th anniversary episode of Raw. The Beast Incarnate then showed up on SmackDown on Friday and it was announced that he would be entering the Royal Rumble match.
On Saturday night Brock Lesnar entered the 30 man Royal Rumble match at number 12, but he wasn’t in the match very long as he was eliminated by Bobby Lashley who entered at number 13. Lesnar had a brief interaction with Gunther which got fans talking as a Lesnar vs. Gunther match has been rumored for WrestleMania.
Dave Meltzer recently addressed a possible Brock Lesnar vs. Gunther match on Wrestling Observer Radio and noted that he was told it won’t be happening at WrestleMania because the company is pushing Lesnar vs. Lashley.
“I mean, I can check on this again and will, but I was pretty much told that no Lesnar and Gunther. But I was not told; I have not been told Lesnar and Lashley, but Lesnar and Lashley is the one they are really pushing hard.”
Bobby Lashley has become one of Brock’s biggest rivals as he managed to defeat Lesnar at the Royal Rumble last year. Brock then followed up by picking up a win over Lashley at Crown Jewel in November of 2022, and a third match between the two of them seems inevitable at this point.
