#1 Lesnar’s legal team work on shortening his suspension

Has asked for continuance

Brock Lesnar is currently in preparations for his Survivor Series showdown with Goldberg, but there is good news for the Beast. Lesnar’s legal team has been testing samples, to know what triggered the positive result. Apparently, the results for Lesnar’s foot cream, will not reach back in time for the November 10 hearings.

Due to this, the team has requested a continuance, and if Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC) accepts the same, then the hearing for Lesnar’s case will not take place until December; giving the team enough time to evaluate the foot cream.

He is currently facing a one-year suspension from USADA, but if the team manages to prove that the supplements were tainted, Lesnar’s suspension could be shortened.
