Brock Lesnar, who attacked John Cena at SummerSlam 2025, is all set to face the 17-time world champion. Their match is only expected to take place in October. Here, we explore when Lesnar can make his WWE return.

Dave Meltzer, of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, has revealed that the 10-time-champion flat out refused a duel with three-time champion, Bray Wyatt, in California, a show where Lesnar ended up facing Omos instead. “Lesnar asked out of the match. It was nothing personal, [Lesnar] just felt it was the wrong opponent for his character.”

Along with reminding us he once beat Lesnar at WrestleMania, McIntyre reminded us that Brock generates headlines.
