WWE News Roundup: Cancelled plans for major title feud, Roman Reigns-Brock Lesnar comparison, The IIconics' future update (May 28, 2021)

#2 "Maybe he has been waiting for the live events" - Paul Heyman on Brock Lesnar's potential WWE return

During Brock Lesnar's previous match, he lost the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36. Lesnar hasn't made any appearances for Vince McMahon's promotion since the event, as his WWE contract expired soon after.

Live crowds are set to return from July onward, and fans are wondering if The Beast Incarnate will resurface in WWE soon.

Brock Lesnar’s former on-screen advocate, Paul Heyman, recently addressed this topic in an interview with Houston radio station SportsTalk 790. Heyman dropped a hint that Lesnar might have been waiting for live crowds to return all along. However, he didn't confirm anything and also expressed that, at the end of the day, "Brock Lesnar does what Brock Lesnar wants to do."

“Asking me about Brock Lesnar is a highly intelligent question and I commend you on your efforts,” Heyman said. “However, it’s a hypothetical. Brock Lesnar does what Brock Lesnar wants to do. If Brock Lesnar wanted to be back in WWE at this moment, at this particular time and place, he would be. Maybe, maybe he has been waiting for the live events, and maybe he’ll choose Houston to make that return… or maybe not, because Brock Lesnar is going to do whatever Brock Lesnar wants to do.”

If Brock Lesnar does indeed return to the land of wrestling entertainment soon, a dream match against current WWE Champion Bobby Lashley would be a highly newsworthy development.
