Brock Lesnar has remained quite active in WWE this year as he worked the Men’s Royal Rumble Match in January before losing to Bobby Lashley at the Elimination Chamber PLE the following month.
At WrestleMania 39, Lesnar beat Omos in a singles match, which was criticized by fans at the time due to Lesnar’s positioning as one WWE’s top stars. The night after on Monday Night Raw, Lesnar teased teaming up with Cody Rhodes for a tag team match with Solo Sikoa and Undisputed WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns, only for “The Beast Incarnate” to turn heel by attacking Rhodes.
At Backlash, Rhodes scored a win before losing to Lesnar at Night of Champions when Rhodes passed out in a kimura.
As previously reported, WWE is planning to do Rhodes vs. Lesnar 3 at this year’s SummerSlam on August 5 from Detroit, MI at Ford Field. WWE is considering a match stipulation that hasn’t been used in years for their bout.
WWE’s website has updated its advertisements for upcoming shows. Lesnar is now slated to appear at the following Raw events:

July17: Atlanta, GA at theState Farm Arena
July 31: Houston, TX at the Toyota Center
