#8. Hope isn't true: Brock Lesnar's WrestleMania 36 status uncertain?

The coronavirus outbreak has led to a lockdown in several countries - particularly major metropolitan cities. Every major travel service has begun to temporarily suspend operations as well, with the United States-Canada border now closed.

Brock Lesnar was originally scheduled to be on RAW this coming week and we aren't sure as yet whether the appearance has been canned. If WWE is planning to build to WrestleMania 36 with one of their main events, they're going to need Brock Lesnar around, but the fact that all hotels have been closed off in Orlando could prove to be trouble for his WrestleMania status.

However, there could still be hope. Sportskeeda's Phillipa Marie wrote:

On the flip side, if he doesn't show up and WWE are forced to overlook his return much like Paige's on SmackDown last week, then it could be a huge indication that the company's WrestleMania plans with regards to the Beast Incarnate may once again be up in the air.
It is also worth noting that the border will only be temporarily closed to non-essential traffic, which means that it could be opened before WrestleMania.

We hope that the possibility of Lesnar missing WrestleMania isn't true, as it would jeopardize the show massively.
