Lesnar Return Details, How Will He Be Booked?

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar is nearing his return to WWE. He’s advertised for the following upcoming dates:

Monday Night Raw on December 8 in Greenville, SC
Monday Night Raw on December 29 in Washington, DC
Monday Night Raw on January 12 in New Orleans, LA
Monday Night Raw on January 19 in Dallas, TX
Monday Night Raw on January 26 in Hartford, CT

As of the middle of last week, it had not yet been decided whether or not Lesnar would face John Cena for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at TLC next month. The company is in the process of beginning contract negotiations with Lesnar as his current deal expires after Wrestlemania 31 next March.

Whether or not Lesnar intends to re-sign with WWE will play a large part in how he is booked going forward.

An interesting idea:
People crapped on the WM 20 match because they knew both Lesnar and Goldberg were leaving. If people know Lesnar is leaving, will it hurt Reigns big win?

If so, WWE should try to sign Brock for one more match after this (if they can't get him back for more) just to prevent this, and also so he can put someone else over.

Given the whole 'Broke The Streak' thing, I'm going to be beyond pissed if he doesn't sign up for another 2 years of paychecks.

I don't understand how he could put someone else over, if he came back for one more wouldn't it almost HAVE to be for a rematch with Reigns? Unless somebody (Heyman Guy Cesaro :D ) costs Lesnar the match and he goes after him, but that would absolutely hurt Reigns big win, much more than smarks knowing Lesnar's on his way out.

I don't think people would have had a problem with Lesnar/Goldberg leaving had they put a little effort into the match. I think the issue was more with them "phoning it in" for their last match instead of "leaving it all in the ring".

IIRC, the fans turned on the match before it even started.

Thinking about it logically, you are correct, but when has WWE ever cared about that.

If you don't bring him back for a rematch, though, he immediately has something to do if he ever comes back again.

Today I read a report that ufc is trying to get lesnar back.

Also, I don't think it'll hurt reigns more than he will be hurt for being pushed so green over a bunch of other guys with better wrestling and mic skills. And you can BUUH LEEE DAT!

I hope he's Ryback's biggest meal to date, truthfully.

I'm still in dissaproval of him not being the last man on Team Cena truthfully, or at last one of them.
When they come, they'll come at what you love.
