Brock Lesnar seems to be on the verge of returning to WWE after his profile was spotted on the active roster list on WWE.com. To add to it, WWE confirmed that SummerSlam will take place on a Saturday at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas - signaling huge plans for the second-biggest pay-per-view of the year.

Lesnar is reportedly expected to return at SummerSlam 2021, and that's a good idea. However, it may not be for the match that fans want. According to Dave Meltzer, an idea being floated around for Brock Lesnar's return involves Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman:

''The obvious angle right now for a Lesnar return is a storyline involving Heyman and thus Reigns,'' Dave Meltzer noted.

We hope this isn't true because there are a few reasons why this is a bad idea. Firstly, this is WWE's final chance to book a dream match between Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley on a big stage. Secondly, it's better to keep Lesnar and Reigns on separate brands since SmackDown is stacked enough already. RAW needs Brock Lesnar more. Thirdly, the rumored John Cena-Roman Reigns direction seems more promising than yet another Reigns-Lesnar match.
