Brock Lesnar is on the WWE ban list, confirms top TKO star 

The anticipation for Brock Lesnar returning to WWE is at an all-time high, and fans have been pointing out that the Stamford-based promotion has been dropping subtle hints about The Beast Incarnate’s return for the past few weeks. From superstars name-dropping him to his official merch getting released to his old matches being uploaded to the company's YouTube channel, WWE continues to tease fans.

However, Lesnar’s former rival and UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier recently revealed that The Beast is currently on WWE’s ban list. Notably, Brock was mentioned in the lawsuit filed by Janel Grant against Vince McMahon and the global juggernaut and hasn't featured on weekly programming since SummerSlam 2023.

Speaking on MightyCast with former UFC Flyweight Champion Demetrious Johnson, top TKO star Daniel Cormier, who currently serves as a color commentator for Ultimate Fighting Championship, was asked about the possibility of him having a WWE match against Brock Lesnar, given their proposed UFC fight in 2018 didn’t come to fruition despite major hype.

Interestingly, DC denied the idea and told Demetrious Johnson that Brock Lesnar is on WWE’s ban list. However, he didn't disclose the reason behind it.

“I mean, Brock [Lesnar] is on the ban list right now. Oh, dude, Brock got into so much trouble. He knows he tried to hold me and sh*t. You know what Brock did? I ain’t telling you on air what Brock did. Bro is in so much trouble,” he said. [1:13:10 to 1:13:25]

WWE Hall of Famer opens up about his bond with Brock Lesnar

In an interview with The Claw Pod earlier this year, WWE Hall of Famer Goldberg opened up about his relationship with Brock Lesnar. The WCW legend revealed that while he and Lesnar don't talk much, they remain good friends behind the scenes.

Da Man also said he and Brock ''have always been the same,'' adding they respect each other ''exponentially.''

"You know, Brock [Lesnar] and I have always been the same. You know, we’re very cordial. We respect each other exponentially, I believe. Brock is a different animal, man; I mean, literally. He is a competitive human being that never turns himself off. And, we all know him; I mean, everybody knows him on a different level. But we are good friends, man. We don’t keep in contact that much because he is a recluse. His enjoyment is keeping away from the human race. I respect that exponentially,” he said. [H/T: ITR Wrestling]

It will be interesting to see if Brock Lesnar returns to WWE in the future.
