Brock Lesnar returned to WWE in two years and took out John Cena at SummerSlam.
Brock Lesnar was last seen in WWE at SummerSlam 2023 in a match against Cody Rhodes. The star has not been in WWE since, especially since his name was alluded to in the Janel Grant lawsuit. However, the Beast returned at SummerSlam.
This happened right after Cody Rhodes dethroned John Cena at SummerSlam and took home the Undisputed WWE Title.
Brock Lesnar Is Now Feuding With John Cena After SummerSlam
Brock Lesnar emerged from the back and looked straight at John Cena. Cena was shocked, as was the rest of the WWE Universe, after the Beast made his return to WWE.
Lesnar then walked to the ring and went straight for Cena. He then delivered a brutal F5 to his arch nemesis from years ago. It now remains to be seen how things pan out in a massive feud that awaits both stars.
