Brock Lesnar hasn't been seen in quite some time, and that won't change until his legal issues are settled. In March as per reports, "No one will get engaged in that circumstance. This is a legal problem, and until the attorneys decide that Brock should be brought back, there will be no effort on his behalf. In the newest Wrestling Observer, Dave Meltzer confirms our revelation with this note.

Lesnar's preparations to compete in the Royal Rumble event were thwarted owing to legal problems arising from Vince McMahon's trafficking case. Along with his absence from WWE broadcasts, Lesnar had significant setbacks in his relationship with the organisation. As per reports it has confirmed that there are no signs of Brock Lesnar returning to WWE anytime soon. We've also learned that WWE has relaxed its prohibition on discussing Lesnar's name.

This ruling implies that the two sides will have to wait longer than expected before going to court because the matter is still being investigated privately. As a result, the prospect of Brock Lesnar wrestling again has been effectively postponed indefinitely. 

Janel Grant's complaint claims that in July 2021, Vince McMahon asked her to develop personalized sexual content for a WWE superstar he wanted to re-sign. The wrestler was not named in the complaint, although he or she was characterized as a UFC fighter and WWE star. Although Brock Lesnar was not named, the timetable indicates a restricted amount of wrestlers.

According to the lawsuit, McMahon exchanged explicit images with a WWE Superstar, who replied enthusiastically. In December, McMahon reportedly offered the wrestler Grant's telephone number. The wrestler then asked for a video of her peeing and used abusive words against her. A meetup was scheduled but did not take place owing to travel constraints.

Brock Lesnar was pulled from the WWE's introduction package and has been absent from promotional materials and segments since the scandal. His WrestleMania 40 battle against GUNTHER, as well as his scheduled Elimination Chamber showdown against Dominik Mysterio, were both abandoned.

Lesnar is no longer playable in WWE 2K24, although he remains in the game's code. John Cena replaced him on the Forty Years of WrestleMania cover. He remains under contract with WWE.
