Brock Lesnar to Work First WWE House Show in 11 Years

“The Beast Incarnate” Brock Lesnar is being advertised to work his first WWE house show since his original run with the company back in 2004.

WWE Japan’s Twitter account is promoting that the former WWE World Heavyweight Champion will be appearing at the Sumo Hall in Tokyo, Japan, for the Independence Day show.

Surprisingly enough, Lesnar’s opponent will be none other than current WWE Tag Team Champion and New Day member, Kofi Kingston, according to the translation at WWE.com.jp.

Lesnar is no stranger to wrestling in the Land of the Rising Sun, as he held the IWGP Heavyweight Championship for 280 days, winning the title in his first match for New Japan Pro Wrestling.

It was recently reported that Lesnar will be making his television return during the June 22 edition of “Monday Night Raw” at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. He hasn’t been seen on WWE programming since being “suspended” by Stephanie McMahon the night after WrestleMania 31.

He’s also advertised to appear and possibly compete at the WWE “Battleground” pay-per-view on July 19, as confirmed by the Scottrade Center’s Twitter account.

Editor’s Note

It looks like Lesnar will be a busy man in the latter half of 2015. WWE must want to get more bang for its buck this time with arguably its biggest star.
