#4 Brock Lesnar to make a return at SummerSlam?

Brock Lesnar has been out of action since WrestleMania 36, where he lost the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre. WWE's original plans reportedly had Lesnar make his return at SummerSlam for a rematch against The Scottish Psychopath.

However, WWE decided that it wasn't worth the trouble to bring Lesnar back with no live audience. WrestlingNews.co have reported that Vince McMahon is optimistic now and could be looking to bring back big names like Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns

There is now speculation amongst some people in the company that now that they are running shows at the Amway Center that this will open the door for names like Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns to return.

It was also stated by WrestleVotes that we can expect some big names to return after the debut of ThunderDome on SmackDown.

If Drew McIntyre retains the WWE Championship at SummerSlam, it would be the perfect surprise for the WWE Universe if The Beast Incarnate comes out after the match and lays out the champion, thus setting up their rematch.
