Speculation That Brock Lesnar Owes WWE Another Date

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, there is some speculation that WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar may owe the company another appearance because he walked out of the February 23rd RAW and didn’t appear as advertised. As we’ve noted, Lesnar walked out after a business disagreement with Vince McMahon.

With Lesnar’s current deal expiring after the post-WrestleMania 31 RAW, he’s currently scheduled for the March 9th RAW in Pittsburgh and the March 23rd RAW in Los Angeles, as well as the post-WrestleMania RAW. The only date Lesnar could do a make-up on is the March 16th RAW in Des Moines. As of this writing, Lesnar has not been added to that show.

With all the uncertainty around Lesnar’s future right now, it’s still believed by many within WWE that they have a very good chance of re-signing him once the deal expires.

We noted yesterday that there’s some speculation that the “smart fan” WrestleMania crowd may end up cheering Roman Reigns big time if they are aware that Lesnar is on his way back to UFC. It’s worth noting that the original idea behind Reigns vs. Lesnar was for the “unbeatable monster heel” Lesnar to lose to the new “babyface savior.” WWE officials were counting on Reigns to be riding a major wave of momentum by now but that’s obviously not the case. Although as noted, Reigns’ reactions since the Royal Rumble have been improving.
