The last time Brock Lesnar was seen inside a WWE ring was at SummerSlam 2023, where The Beast Incarnate lost to Cody Rhodes. Since then, Lesnar has not made a single appearance on WWE programming, but Triple H, during the WrestleMania 40 press conference, mentioned WWE is open to Lesnar's return.

Keeping the same in mind, there is a chance The Beast could return on Monday Night RAW and replace a four-time champion in an ongoing feud. The champion in question is Bron Breakker, and the feud in which Lesnar could replace him is the one against the current World Heavyweight Champion Gunther.

On this week's episode of the red show, WWE teased a feud between Gunther and Breakker as the two superstars met backstage. However, in the coming weeks, Brock Lesnar could make his surprise return and first feud with Breakker to take him out.

Once the former Intercontinental Champion is out, The Beast Incarnate could face Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship. While speculative, a scenario like that would allow WWE fans to see Lesnar feud with both Breakker and Gunther, which is something the majority of the WWE Universe wants to see.


Wrestling legend questions Brock Lesnar's return to WWE

When one thinks of it, Brock Lesnar has achieved more than most athletes. Not only has he been a World Champion in WWE, but Brock also made a successful switch to MMA and won the UFC Heavyweight Championship. Lesnar later returned to WWE and cemented his legacy as a professional wrestler.

Recently, a wrestling legend spoke about the possibility of Lesnar's return and raised his doubts. The wrestling legend in question is the mind behind WCW, Eric Bischoff. During an episode of his 83 Weeks podcast, Bischoff wondered whether Lesnar even wanted to wrestle after all he has achieved.

Bischoff said:

"No way to know man. Brock's unique. Brock's got enough money he could live the next three lives ... His kids will never be able to spend the money that Brock has made, and beyond the money, Brock has farming. That's his joy, that's his passion, that's where Brock is at peace based on what I've heard. I don't know Brock that well, and man I don't know he doesn't need to so it's a question of does he want to, and at some point you just don't want to anymore. What's Brock gonna do that he hasn't done a dozen times in the last dozen years?"

While there is no way to know what Brock Lesnar is thinking, if he returns, he will definitely receive a huge pop because fans on social media often express their desire to see him back.
