They didn’t have much time. Summerslam was certainly an eventful show and now comes the interesting part, as we get to see the fallout. WWE has more than a few different choices as they go forward, including some big names back on the roster. This includes the surprise from the end of the show, but now we know a new detail that makes things all the more interesting.

Brock Lesnar made a surprise return to end this year’s Summerslam, appearing to confront Roman Reigns after the show’s main event. According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE came to terms with Lesnar just before Summerslam, meaning that Lesnar did not have much time to prepare for his appearance. The deal was made due to John Cena leaving WWE, WWE wanting to appease FOX and CM Punk debuting with AEW. As a result of the situation, Lesnar was able to get an even better deal for himself. He is expected to wrestle about eight matches over the next year and a half.

It was a comeback to remember. Check out Lesnar’s return and what is coming back to WWE:

Opinion: This isn’t all that surprising as WWE needed something to perk things up a bit. I know Lesnar returning might not be the most popular move among the more hardcore fans, but Lesnar is going to get some attention from the masses and that is why WWE brought him back in. If Lesnar can turn WWE’s desperation into more money for himself, good for him for taking advantage of the situation.
