WWE Rumor Roundup: Forgotten Superstar returning as a surprise Royal Rumble entrant, Brock Lesnar WrestleMania match not happening - 22nd January 2020

#4. Rumor killer on Brock Lesnar's WrestleMania opponent

Brock Lesnar is the talk of the town. He always is when he's around.

The Beast Incarnate is all set to enter the Royal Rumble match at #1 and it's easy to deduct that the Superstar who will eliminate him from the match will ideally face him for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 36.

However, there have also been reports about a potential Tyson Fury vs, Brock Lesnar match for the Show of Shows.

Dave Meltzer revealed in the Wrestling Observer Radio that when asked about the match, sources in the WWE specifically told him that it would not be happening.

That doesn't mean that the company won't work with Fury again as the Gypsy King is still a part of WWE's plans and they want the charismatic heavyweight boxer to do a match or two in the future,

Fury, who has been pushing for a big-money showdown against Lesnar, will not be able to fulfil his desire as the company is not leaning in that direction.

The Gypsy King is preparing to take on Deontay Wilder for the second time on February 22nd, and as revealed by WrestleVotesa a few weeks ago, Fury's 'Mania appearance hinges on him winning the highly-anticipated rematch.

Lots of speculation regarding Tyson Fury & WrestleMania. Source said his fight at MGM Grand vs. Deontay Wilder on February 22 is crucial to him appearing in Tampa. If Wilder wins, Vince isn’t throwing $$ at a guy who just lost on PPV. So to a degree, the ball is in Fury’s court.
