On the newest WWE RAW, Brock Lesnar made his return to attack Oba Femi, establishing a match between the pair on the WWE Clash In Italy event.
This got here after Lesnar seemingly retired from in-ring competition at WrestleMania 42, including leaving his boots and gloves within the ring.
On a recent episode of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Bully Ray questioned what was the purpose of teasing a retirement simply to have Brock return. He said,
“Brock decided to shock the world by taking off his boots, taking off his fist pads or whatever, those MMA gloves, and he leaves them in the course of the ring, thus signifying that Brock Lesnar is finished.
“We even heard Paul Heyman begging and pleading to maneuver him out of…you recognize the ‘Then, Now, Endlessly’ area of the opening of the show, and put him within the perpetually part. All indicators were that Brock Lesnar was done. Brock Lesnar made a conscious effort to inform the world ‘It’s over at WrestleMania.’ A month later, he modified his mind. Why?”
Tommy Dreamer then suggested that Lesnar’s WrestleMania ‘farewell’ can have been a ruse by the Beast to lull Femi right into a false sense of security.
Even with this, Bully Ray believes an evidence about what happened at WWE WrestleMania 42 is so as. He said,
“Whenever you see Brock Lesnar take off his boots and his gloves, and leave them there and begin to tear up and hug Paul Heyman goodbye, you just about think that that’s the top for Brock. Would you agree that we definitely hear from Brock…something, even when it’s so simple as ‘I modified my mind?’ Don’t we’d like to listen to a why Brock Lesnar decided to return back?”
Dreamer agreed, suggesting that Lesnar and Heyman will explain themselves soon, potentially as soon as next week’s WWE RAW.
