Does Brock Lesnar's legacy make him the greatest WWE superstar of all time?

WWE wrestler Brock Lesnar was originally rumored to face Gunther at WrestleMania 40, but plans changed significantly. Although Lesnar was not named, he was implicated in Janel Grant’s high-profile lawsuit. This led to his removal from all WWE plans. However, The Beast is expected to return as soon as possible.

The lawsuit did not name the wrestler but described him as a UFC wrestler and a WWE talent. Although Brock Lesnar was not mentioned, the timeline suggests a limited number of potential wrestlers. As a result, Lesnar was removed from WWE programming and his return was canceled. However, now senior officials of the company are confident that they could manifest Lesnar’s return to an event in 2025.

There was talk of a possible return related to the Royal Rumble that, so far, could not take place. But that, depending on how the cases evolve, could change to February 1, 2025, at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana, the date that the Royal Rumble is supposed to happen. Paul Heyman, the legendary manager, recently sat on an interview and praised Lesnar amid the return rumors. The former ECW manager revealed how Lesnar had always been unique.

He said, “Brock Lesnar always had it. Brock Lesnar always understood. Brock Lesnar always knew he was unique. He was different. He wasn’t gonna be the same as everybody else. And the more he grew and stature and leveraged, the more we could dictate the manner in which he was gonna be presented. There’s no one like Brock Lesnar. I mean, even his most, my hard competitors will tell you. There’s no one like Brock Lesnar. So we were not going to ever put him in a position where he was just gonna be like everybody else.” His last match in WWE was at SummerSlam 2023, where Cody Rhodes handed him a decisive defeat. Since then, the WWE Universe has been waiting for his return. But while Lesnar is yet to return, another man that Heyman managed did reappear in the promotion.

Paul Heyman believes that what is to come for Roman Reigns will be very exciting

During the weekend of SummerSlam 2024, Roman Reigns returned to WWE programming to confront Solo Sikoa and the rest of the members of The Bloodline. In addition, he also made two appearances on SmackDown to take down the Bloodline. For now, he is expected to be present again this week to continue his rivalry with Solo. In a recent interview with Newseek’s Jeremy Hann, Paul Heyman was asked about Roman Reigns’ future and how his career will need to evolve. Especially now that he no longer holds the Undisputed WWE Championship. Heyman expressed great excitement for what was to come. The legendary manager was confident that they would be able to surpass and improve on everything they’ve accomplished over the past four years.

What’s your perspective on:

Does Brock Lesnar's legacy make him the greatest WWE superstar of all time?

Have an interesting take?

He said, “No matter where we go with Roman Reigns, it has to be a path that is only logical and makes sense, but that is new, unique, and different. [One] that the audience can go on that journey with him. What is the compelling scenario that puts the Head of the Table, the Tribal Chief, the now former Champion Roman Reigns in such a predicament and such a situation where multiple catalysts are at play at the same time that the story itself is so riveting that you can’t take your eyes off it, because it can go in so many different directions.”

It will be interesting to see how WWE evolves Roman Reigns’ character in the coming weeks and how he adapts to this new stage of his career. In addition, he is expected to eventually face Cody Rhodes again, who defeated him at WrestleMania XL and snatched the Undisputed WWE Championship from him. So what do you think? Will the Wiseman get to reunite with Lesnar while he takes Roman Reigns to the top again? Let us know in the comments.
