It was believed that there was zero chance of any sort of Brock Lesnar WWE return while this lawsuit was still ongoing - which it still very much is - which is why it came as a huge shock when Lesnar's music hit at the end of SummerSlam Night 2, where the 48-year-old came out and laid out John Cena with an F-5.

Brock Lesnar is back on WWE TV. A lawyer for Janel Grant says it’s not going to work out like some expect it will. Lesnar made a shocking appearance at WWE SummerSlam on Sunday night, his first appearance on WWE TV in two years.

Lesnar was named in a lawsuit against Vince McMahon and WWE alleging sexual abuse and trafficking, but was reportedly cleared by the company's lawyers four weeks ago.
