WWE Rumor Roundup - Superstar fired for not knowing who Stephanie McMahon was, Plan for Roman Reigns' new faction, Brock Lesnar's next opponent, and more - 3rd October 2020

#3. Former WWE Champion Brock Lesnar is one of the opponents considered for Jon Jones

Brock Lesnar has not been seen on WWE TV since he dropped the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36.

Lesnar's WWE contract expired not too long ago, and there have no updates on whether the Beast Incarnate has re-signed with Vince McMahon's company.

Dave Meltzer has now revealed in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that while it's a longshot, Brock Lesnar facing Jon Jones in a Heavyweight UFC Super Fight can't be ruled out.

Brock Lesnar has always wanted the fight against Jon Jones, and it has been termed as a 'never-say-never' situation.

Here's what Meltzer noted about Jon Jones' options and the possibility of a Brock Lesnar fight in the Newsletter:

Jones did tease about going back down to light heavyweight and reclaiming the title after Blachowicz got the win, which just shows how it was more about not defending against Reyes than it was actually wanting to vacate the title. He isn't going to, because he is serious about moving to heavyweight and is actively taking the steps to gain weight to compete there, knowing his big money fights are against Stipe Miocic, Francis Ngannou, and, even though it is a huge longshot but also a never-say-never situation, Brock Lesnar.
