Booker T: I'd Love To See Brock Lesnar Back In The Fold With WWE, He Would Be A Game-Changer

Booker T wants to see Brock Lesnar come back to WWE.

Brock Lesnar has not wrestled since he lost to Cody Rhodes at WWE SummerSlam 2023. He was reportedly set to return early in 2024, but he was implicated, though not outright named, in Janel Grant's lawsuit against Vince McMahon and WWE in January. The lawsuit alleges that Vince McMahon used Ms. Grant in a sexual manner in order to keep "a world-famous athlete and former UFC Heavyweight Champion with whom WWE was actively trying to sign to a new contract." Lesnar was then reportedly removed from creative plans, and there have been few references to him on WWE programming since. However, he has been referred to indirectly in promos and on commentary in recent weeks,

Speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast with Brad Gilmore, WWE Hall of Famer and NXT commentator Booker T was asked to comment on Brock Lesnar potentially returning to WWE, possibly at WWE Crown Jewel.

“Tell you what man, I don’t know if that’s going to happen. Could I see that happening? Yeah, of course. But the game-changer would be just Brock reappearing back on WWE TV in any way, shape, or form. That’s what I think. That’s the game-changer. Lot of people I’m sure have thought they may not see Brock Lesnar anymore after this hiatus he’s had because he’s been gone for quite some time, and no one’s said anything, so I’m sure if some words are being dropped [on commentary/in promos] yeah, it might be some plans in the work. But yeah, Brock Lesnar would be a huge game-changer. But everything right now is going so well, it would just add more fuel to the fire, especially with The Bloodline stuff that’s going on. Is he gonna join in with Roman? There’s so much data to work with, so yeah, I’d love to see Brock Lesnar back in the fold," Booker T said.

In July, Triple H said that WWE would be open to a conversation with Lesnar "if and when" he decided that he wanted to do something.
