Brock Lesnar Removed From WWE Intro/Opening Video

WWE is continuing to distance itself from Brock Lesnar, with the latest example being noticed during Friday’s episode of SmackDown.

Cause

Lesnar was dropped from all of WWE’s plans 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.

These plans included matches at the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber & WrestleMania 40. WWE has removed him from the WWE 2K Supercard mobile game and from the WWE 2K24 Forty Years of WrestleMania edition cover.

Distance

As previously reported, Lesnar will be downplayed and potentially removed from WWE licensee content from now on. The company has no plans to use him on television.

As seen below, WWE has replaced Lesnar with LA Knight in the intro video package that airs on all of the shows. If you blink, you will miss the change when watching it.
