Brock Lesnar’s recent absence from WWE TV has sparked speculation about his future with the company. According to the latest Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer revealed that if Lesnar wishes to return, WWE’s legal team will play a crucial role in the decision.
Meltzer explained that WWE’s legal team has advised the company to avoid bringing Lesnar back at the moment due to his connection with the Vince McMahon-Janel Grant sex trafficking lawsuit. This situation is likely to influence whether Lesnar can return to WWE, as the legal team’s clearance is essential.
Meltzer noted, “If Brock Lesnar reaches out to WWE and says he wants to return for WrestleMania, the decision rests with the lawyers. They have currently advised us to keep our distance because of the ongoing legal issues. This could change in the future if they decide enough time has passed. Bringing Brock back is not just a matter of making a simple decision; it hinges on legal approval.”
Originally, Lesnar was expected to participate in the Royal Rumble, but his plans were affected by these legal complications. WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H mentioned in an interview with Mail Sport that the final decision on Lesnar’s return is up to him.
Currently, Lesnar is spending time in Canada with his family, and it remains to be seen if and when he might make a comeback to WWE.
