WWE Rumours: Brock Lesnar will be back soon

The Observer said that Brock Lesnar would be back on WWE television soon. It speculated that it could be as early as the first few months of 2020. Brock Lesnar's participation in the Royal Rumble has also become a source of speculation. With his feud with Rey Mysterio having reached its seeming conclusion, it remains to be seen who will take on The Beast Incarnate at the Royal Rumble. One of the names that have popped up is that of Cain Velasquez. Other reports suggest that WWE may field Kevin Owens and Randy Orton against the WWE Champion Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view.

With the Royal Rumble just around the corner, it is expected that the WWE Champion will make an appearance on WWE RAW in the run-up to the PPV. The Royal Rumble is the most significant pay-per-view event leading to WrestleMania. It would make sense to have Lesnar appear early in the year for WWE to set up a feud for the champion at the Royal Rumble. Lesnar has already defended his title successfully against Mysterio and Velasquez after winning it from Kofi Kingston in the debut episode of SmackDown on FOX.
