F4Wonline.com is reporting that former WWE Champion Brock Lesnar is set to return during “Monday Night Raw” on July 21. Lesnar will be coming in as the next guy backed by The Authority in hopes of removing the WWE World Heavyweight Championship off of current champ John Cena.
Lesnar was rumored to possibly be returning during the 2014 edition of “Battleground” on July 20, but the company is set to bring back the man who conquered the Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak on July 21 instead. The Best Incarnate has not been seen on WWE TV since April 6, when he became the “1 in 21-1.”
Heyman hinted at Lesnar’s return during the July 14 edition of “Monday Night Raw,” letting Triple H know that he has a full proof “plan C” for The Authority if “plan A”(Randy Orton) or “plan B”(Seth Rollins) do not work out at “Battleground.” However, WWE has already let the cat out of the bag when it comes to promotion for Lesnar vs. Cena at “SummerSlam” on Aug. 17.
The DVD cover art, and poster for “SummerSlam,” leaked on Amazon.com a few weeks back. In an attempt to bank off of the mistake, WWE quickly sent out an email blast hyping the match, claiming that Aug. 17 cannot “get here fast enough” because Lesnar would be taking on Cena at the event.
Recently, a promotional video for the event began airing through certain cable providers, which also leaked online. The video hypes Lesnar vs. Cena as a major event, likely for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, although it does not confirm that the title is on the line. However, Lesnar is rumored to be claiming the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at either “SummerSlam,” or “Night Of Champions,” as he is slated to work both events.
If he does capture the championship, Lesnar is then rumored to hold the title for sometime, and possibly face Roman Reigns for the championship at WrestleMania 31 in Santa Clara, Calif. on March 29. While all this is speculation, one thing is for sure. The Pain will be coming back to “Monday Night Raw” on July 21.
Editor’s Note:
Here comes the pain baby! Lesnar better be built as a monster that’s unbeatable now since he defeated the Undertaker and his streak at WrestleMania XXX. He can’t lose clean at “SummerSlam.”
