The latest regarding WWE's plans for Brock Lesnar Submitted by Aaron Rift on 11/08/2018 at 11:13 AM
Dave Meltzer of F4WOnline.com is reporting that Brock Lesnar's short-term WWE contract was set to expire at Crown Jewel and Roman Reigns was originally scheduled to retain the Universal Title at the event. Once Reigns revealed that he was sick, Lesnar was signed to a new deal which was believed to have been around October 18th. All that is known about the contract is that it's another short-term deal and it lasts through Wrestlemania. Lesnar will also reportedly be able to continue pursuing another UFC fight.
There is apparently a Lesnar storyline in the works that involves talents other than Braun Strowman. Lesnar is expected to have a match at Wrestlemania but a Royal Rumble appearance is up in the air due to his UFC training.
