What’s up with the Beast?
Brock Lesnar was originally scheduled to return to WWE on Monday Night Raw next week for the December 8, 2014 edition of Raw.
However, WWE booked the Slammy Awards for next week’s Raw, and it won’t have much as much in the way of serious angles.
Despite having been booked and advertised for the last month or so, Brock was removed from the 12/08 show. Instead, Brock will return on the 12/15/2014 edition of Raw. This makes more sense as it is the Raw after the TLC 2014 PPV, on which he is not booked, and it will allow him to kick off the build for his next match with John Cena.
That match is expected to take place at the WWE Royal Rumble 2015 PPV as the co-main event with the Rumble itself.
Update:
Brock has a number of appearances for Raw booked in December and January leading up to Royal Rumble, here is the full list:
- December 15, 2014 (Raw) Detroit, Michigan
- December 29, 2014 (Raw) Washington, D.C.
- January 12, 2015 (Raw) Minneapolis, MN
- January 19, 2015 (Raw) Dallas, TX
- January 25, 2015 (Royal Rumble)
- January 26, 2015 (Raw) Hartford CT
