WWE Rumor Roundup: Vince McMahon picks a future main-eventer, 8-time World Champion to take hiatus? (May 3rd, 2020)

#2 Brock Lesnar to take a long hiatus from WWE?

WWE Superstar Brock Lesnar lost his Universal Championship to Drew McIntyre to end their well-booked title feud to a deserving end at WrestleMania 36. The fact that Lesnar was impressed with the 'Scottish Psychopath' and made an extra effort to put him over made their storyline all the more interesting.

Ever since Lesnar lost his title, there have been several speculations about his future with the company. Now, the latest reports suggest that the 'Beast Incarnate' might take a long hiatus from WWE.

During the WWE's Quarter 1 financial conference call, Vince McMahon reportedly said,

"We no longer have Brock Lesnar anymore, obviously".

This comment caused Dave Meltzer to discuss Lesnar's plausibly heading towards an extended hiatus from WWE. It shouldn't come as a surprise for two big reasons. First, there aren't many compelling storylines involving Brock Lesnar that can be booked in WWE right now. Secondly, his presence will end up, resulting in his involvement in the title picture -- something that won't sit well with WWE's plans of pushing the current world title-holders.

Therefore, it is quite possible that we won't see the former Universal Champion make an appearance in the next few WWE PPVs.
