If advertising and social media are to be believed, former WWE champion and top draw Brock Lesnar will be at the June 22 WWE Monday Night RAW event in Indianapolis, IN, and will also appear at July's WWE Battleground in St. Louis, MO.

This will be Lesnar's first WWE appearance since the March 30th RAW when he was suspended in storyline for attacking broadcasters Michael Cole, Booker T, and JBL, as well as a cameraman. The Indy RAW is eight days after WWE Money In The Bank.

In addition, the Scottrade Center sent out the following email today, confirming Lesnar will be at the July 19th Battleground PPV:

I'm praying that this is true.

He's also scheduled to appear four weeks in a row (including Battleground PPV)

As reported earlier, the official Twitter account of the Bankers Life Fieldhouse announced this morning that Brock Lesnar will appear at the venue when a Raw taping takes place in Indianapolis on June 22, 2015. He is advertised to appear at additional events through July. They are:

* July 6, 2015 Raw taping at the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois

* July 13, 2015 Raw taping at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia

* July 19, 2015 WWE Battleground pay-per-view at Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri

They may pull something similar to Steve Austin in 2000 (prior to Backlash) and 2003 (prior to Wrestlemania) where Lesnar is sitting in his truck outside the arena causing a commotion.
The idea is that Lesnar is sick of sitting at home when he's entitled to a re-match.
Eventually WWE concedes to allow him into the arena at the Battleground PPV in part because Lesnar has been a nuisance over a period of weeks and because Heyman saw how the Ambrose assault situation was handled and complained.
However this is handled, Lesnar is still p*ssed that agreed to a TV match only to have it tossed and he's eager to get his meathooks on Rollins.

There's no way Lesnar should be allowed in the arena until the Battleground PPV at least. It's possible he may drive a truck through the entrance, get out and bullrush security and run out during the Battleground match itself.

Awesome news.

I think that the WWE is gonna save the title match for SummerSlam, which really, they should. The Authority is probably gonna do the whole "If you want to get to this guy for a title match, then you're going to have to beat this guy" and so they can send someone like Kane, Big Show, or if Mark Henry (if he's still a heel) to fight Lesnar. I mean it only makes sense since they are all in with The Authority

Yeah, it's imperative that they save the match with Rollins for Summerslam. It'd be silly to throw it on a B-PPV unless they want to do Brock vs Rollins at Battleground and then the rumored Brock vs Rollins vs Reigns triple-threat at Summerslam.

To be honest, the fact that he may be competing at Battleground just further convinces me that he isn't leaving Summerslam with the championship. Not that I expect him to eat a pinfall after being put down by nefarious means either, but if they don't plan on having him walk out with the title, then perhaps the purpose of Battleground is to give him a dominating win over someone just so they can avoid having him go two matches in a row (Wrestlemania and Summerslam) where he leaves without obtaining the actual victory.

I figure Kane will have definitely turned babyface by then and will probably be Seth's opponent for the championship at Battleground, but in the event that he hasn't and is still playing lapdog for The Authority, either book him or Big Show against Lesnar or (more desirably) book Kane AND the Big Show against Brock in a handicap match at Battleground. Brock being forced to square off against the two of them at the same time and WINNING would make Seth shit his pants (since he would know that he's next on the list) and would be badass as hell.
