WWE is continuing to distance itself from Brock Lesnar, with the latest example coming in the way of one of the special editions of WWE 2K24.
Plans change
WWE nixed plans involving Lesnar at the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber & WrestleMania 40 following the sex trafficking lawsuit that was filed against Vince McMahon and WWE, with a former WWE/UFC Heavyweight Champion being named in the filing and the Wall Street Journal identified Lesnar as that former champion
Lesnar has also been pulled from the WWE 2K Supercard mobile game, and his merchandise on WWE Shop was put on discount as Lesnar will be downplayed and potentially removed from WWE licensee content from now on. The company has no plans to use him on television.
New cover
Today, 2K Games released the first look at the gameplay for the upcoming WWE 2K24 video game. You can watch that footage here.
As seen below, Lesnar was removed from the WWE 2K24 Forty Years of WrestleMania edition cover. The game is available for pre-order across Steam, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series S/X.
