As we have noted for several weeks now, the plan is to bring Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar back to television in preparation for next month’s WWE Battleground PPV, and leading into a major match at SummerSlam this August.
Lesnar is being advertised for the June 22nd edition of RAW, but according to the latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter, while not yet added to the advertisements, the duo will in fact be on RAW next week in Cleveland following this weekend’s Money in the Bank PPV.
It will be interesting to see what kind of program WWE has in store for Lesnar over the next two months. The obvious story is the unfinished business with World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins, who took the title off him at WresteMania 31 by cashing in his Money in the Bank contract. Obviously a singles match between the two would require Rollins to retain in his rematch with Dean Ambrose this weekend.
