5 WWE stars who are still listed as active performers

#2 Brock Lesnar's WWE contract expired in 2020

The last time fans saw Brock Lesnar on WWE TV was way back at WrestleMania 36 when he lost the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre.

Since making his return to professional wrestling from the world of Mixed Martial Arts in 2012, Lesnar has been a vital part of WWE and has been involved in some of the biggest storylines in these past 9 years.

The former UFC heavyweight champion's latest run with WWE saw him share the center stage with some of the sport's icons, including a historic WrestleMania XXX match against The Undertaker. The same showdown saw The Beast Incarnate end The Deadman's iconic WM streak.

Since that win, Brock Lesnar pretty much transitioned himself to a household name in WWE. As a three-time Universal Champion, Lesnar provided the WWE Universe with some dream clashes in recent years against the likes of AJ Styles, Finn Balor, and Daniel Bryan.

While reports have suggested that Brock Lesnar is currently no longer under a WWE contract, the former five-time WWE Champion remains a part of the active Superstars list on WWE.com. And if history suggests anything, The Beast Incarnate could eventually make his return to the company at some point down the road.
