WWE News: Brock Lesnar’s Return To WWE Television Officially Announced – The Beast Is Back
A few weeks ago, Brock Lesnar returned to the ring, but it was at a non-televised WWE Live Event, and the world didn’t get to enjoy his carnage. Now, the world needs to get ready because on Monday Night Raw, WWE officially announced the return of Paul Heyman and his client, the “Beast Incarnate,” Brock Lesnar.
As WrestleZone recapped, WWE did reveal when Lesnar would be back on WWE television, and it’s just a week away.

Next week in New Orleans, Lesnar will be heading back to Monday Night Raw, and no-one quite knows what he is going to do. He’s coming back just in time to begin the “Road to WrestleMania,” and it’s going to be interesting to see just where Lesnar fits into the whole scheme of things.
There are rumors that he will be placing himself right into the Royal Rumble match and going after the main event shot at WrestleMania 32. As of the time his return was announced by WWE, there was only one person who was officially in the match and it’s Big Show.
Wyatt says that at the Royal Rumble, they will take everything and make some big noise. It’s going to be interesting to see what the new faces of fear have in store for everyone else in WWE.
As for Lesnar, he will be hitting the ring one more time for WWE before making his televised return on Monday Night Raw next week. Lesnar is going to be at the WWE Live Event in Houston on January 8, and he’s going to be joined by his business advocate – Paul Heyman.

The event taking place at the Toyota Center in Houston doesn’t have a confirmed card in place yet, but Lesnar will be a part of it. As shown on the WWE Live Events page on WWE.com, Lesnar is confirmed to be there.
From the looks of things, it’s going to be an impressive event as well.
“Suplex City” is coming back to WWE television, and it’s going to be fun to see who Brock Lesnar’s first target is.
When he was last seen, Lesnar got the better of The Undertaker at Hell In A Cell by defeating him for the second of their three matches. In his non-televised return, he got the better of the League of Nations by taking out Alberto Del Rio and Rusev.
It’s really hard to imagine who could stand toe-to-toe with Lesnar and give him a run for his money. Whomever WWE has in mind, it needs to be something that is believable. Jim Ross has a couple of ideas for who should take on the “Beast Incarnate.”
Next week on Monday Night Raw, its going to be a true party when Brock Lesnar returns and Suplex City hits New Orleans. By then, the Royal Rumble will be just two weeks away, and whomever is in the sights of of the beast needs to be careful where they step.
