Lesnar Returns, WWE Strikes ESPN Partnership

News summary

Brock Lesnar made a shocking return to WWE at SummerSlam 2025, attacking John Cena immediately after Cena lost the Undisputed WWE Title to Cody Rhodes in what was billed as Cena's farewell match. Lesnar's comeback followed legal clearance from WWE's legal team despite lingering controversy from allegations linked to the Janel Grant lawsuit against Vince McMahon. The emotional passing of the torch from Cena to Rhodes was dramatically interrupted by Lesnar's F5, reigniting debate and excitement among fans. Industry commentators, including Daniel Cormier and Triple H, highlighted the unpredictable impact of Lesnar's return on WWE's future. WWE also announced an exclusive partnership with ESPN for all Premium Live Events beginning in 2026. Additional dramatic storylines, such as those involving Seth Rollins, have further amplified uncertainty about WWE's creative direction.
