Brock Lesnar is most likely done with his latest wrestling stint with the WWE after Wrestlemania 34 according to Paul Heyman. This would be a big blow, as Lesnar is one, if not, the biggest star in the WWE.
Paul Heyman via the New York Post:
It’s most likely the answer to that is yes. The reasons are rather public. Brock is eyeballing a return to the octagon. He’s made no secret about it. He’s out in Las Vegas at the UFC offices taking a selfie with Dana White wearing a UFC T-shirt. These are not secret negotiations.
The fact that both our contracts are coming due is not a secret, either. Is this the last time that Brock Lesnar goes out to the ring in WWE, I truly don’t know that answer because what we’re focused on at the moment is … Brock is very laser focused on the task at hand. That’s always been his way, since he grew up on a dairy farm in Webster, South Dakota as a kid.
(At) 5 a.m. milk the cows, 8 a.m. get the eggs from the chicken. Everything is task oriented. Right now our task is to deliver a memorable main event with Roman Reign with the Universal title on the line. That happens April 8th.
Once we’re done with that task then we’ll focus on what happens after April 8th. It’s just the mindset that Brock Lesnar has and it’s worked for him every since he won an NCAA Division I heavyweight championship.
Time is working against Brock, he’s not that young, and he still has six months left on a drug suspension stemming from a positive test in the lead up to last fight in 2016 at UFC 200. It’ll be a little while before we see Brock in the Octagon.
