Brock Lesnar returned to WWE for the first time in two years after he was mentioned in the bomb against Vince McMahon in the bomb bowl.
Lesnar's music met for his breathtaking return after Cody Rhodes defeated John Cena to win the undisputed WWE championship in the main event of Night 2 in Summerlam in the Metlife Stadium on Sunday evening.
Lesnar, whose last appearance was in Summerlam in 2023, delivered his F5 finisher to a stunned CENA, in order to build a match later this year during the retirement of the “Peacemaker” star.
It is the first time of the former UFC heavyweight champion for the company's program since its name was raised in accusations against the former WWE boss McMahon by ex-employee Janel Grant. She accuses him of sexual assault and sex trade.
Grant submitted the lawsuit in January 2024. The original complaint did not contain a name of Lesnar, with only a “world-famous athlete and former UFC heavyweight champion”, which McMahon tried at that time. Lesnar, who is not a defendant in the case, was officially mentioned in a federal court in a changed complaint in February.
Grant accused McMahon of asking them to create “personalized sexual content” for Lesnar in July 2021. She also claims that McMahon flew Lesnar to Connecticut in 2021 to have a sexual encounter that did not take place.
The lawyer of McMahon, Jessica Rosenberg, described Grant Naming Lesnar in the lawsuit in February.
“As expected, the proposed changed complaint is nothing more than the youngest Advertising team in an ongoing smear campaign,” McMahon lawyer Jessica Rosenberg told ESPN at that time. “It is full of desperate falsehoods of a team that continues to disregard the law and the truth.”
Since then, Lesnar has been persona non grata in the WWE. It was rumored that Lesnar returned to the Royal Rumble 2024, but the appearance was scrapped after the message was deleted by the lawsuit
The lawsuit accuses McMahon, her fists and other objects, including sex toys, to have caused her physical damage, and blocked it to a WWE office before he and another WWE was sexually accompanied. She also accused McMahon in the complaint to force her into sexual relationships to keep her job.
McMahon denied the allegations against him
At that time, his legal team described the lawsuit “full of lies, obscene, invented cases that have never occurred, and a vengeful distortion of truth”.
“My reaction was exactly what I would be for, what if there had been a roof in this place, it would not be here,” said Triple H, Chief Content Officer from WWE, during the Summerlam Post Show.
“The dynamics in the WWE room changes when the animal is here,” he added. “When you see Brock Lesnar come back, everything you thought goes out of the window because the factor of Brock now changes this dynamic so incredibly. It makes it unpredictable.”
Triple H seemed to show that Cena wanted to work with Lesnar during his last run. When asked about Cena's opponents, he called it the “wish list” of the 17-time world champion and it is about John can go out how he wants to go out.
“One of the very first things I told him was' Who do you want and how?” Triple H said. “And we work through that.”
