As reported by F4WOnline. "With WWE preparing to go most of the summer without Daniel Bryan, there was some talk of possibly bringing Brock Lesnar back early to help offset the loss of another top star."



I, for one, can understand them deciding to bring Lesnar early to save the ratings from plummeting. But what would he do? You can't bring him back just to get him back on TV. Have him do something

Bryan will be back before Summerslam.. the young guys on the roster need a chance to step up and bringing Brock back and placing him into the title picture would be a slap in the face to the guys that actually work every week. Let Reigns, Rollins, Ambrose, Dallas, Wyatt, Cesaro and others step up and fill Bryan's spot.

Kind of ironic that until Batista's return flopped, they didn't initially believe in Bryan enough to place him in the Wrestlemania main event, yet now they're considering bringing Brock Lesnar of all people back early just to off-set Bryan's absence.

I know some will dislike this, but I have almost completely lost interest in Brock Lesnar.

His character was compelling in the aftermath of his defeat of Undertaker (spoiler alert!), but he made one appearance and now he's just a name that Paul Heyman uses to get heat. I return to my questioning of the decision to have him go over Taker if he wasn't going to stick around and play a more major role. I just think it was a completely wasted opportunity.

You all are crazy. Bork returns, overshadows Cesaro setting up their feud. He puts over the younger talent you wanted to step up, and no way in hell he is champ for more than 2 months IF he even gets it.

I'd be down for some Bork segments, it's only a couple RAW's and a ppv or two.

Don't really believe for a second that Lesnar will return any sooner than he wants to, he has no passion for wrestling. However, I would be for a Lesnar title win at Summerslam for him to maybe lose it at NOC to Cesaro or Bryan.

Something tells me Cena will win MITB and then lose the title to Lesnar at Summerslam, a re-match of Extreme Rules 2012.

I'm not really thrilled about Brock's return. I don't have a problem with him not talking and stuff and leaving it up to Heyman... But, his so called feuds are just meh. Just look at his feud with The Undertaker before WM, it was a disaster.

Even if Brock Lesnar returns sooner than expected or if he doesn't, he'd still be in the title hunt. He'll win it, most likely. And then he'll drop it to either Bryan, Cesaro or Reigns (fine by me). That's how I see it.

People actually think Cesaro will be viewed credible enough to face Lesnar at SummerSlam? No. Just no. I think they should put him in a program with either Sheamus, Orton, maybe even Batista. I'd prefer Sheamus as that would be an absolute brawl. As for Lesnar in the title picture and as big as a Lesnar fan I am, it's a lose-lose situation if he were to go for the championship at SummerSlam. If he wins, he will be gone for most of his reign and I'm guessing that television matches would be out of the question. We would be lucky to get the odd appearance to do a promo as it! (kinda like The Rock when he beat CM Punk at the Royal Rumble and carried the Championship until dropping it to John Cena at WrestleMania a couple months later). On the other hand, if he loses, it kills off the momentum he gained and buzz generated when he ended The Undertaker's WrestleMania Streak. Just put him against either Orton, Sheamus or Batista

I think Lesnar/Reigns would be a good one. and I agree about the Taker feud, that did not go as well as I hoped at all.

If I had faith this is what would happen, I'd be down for it.
