• Moments after the title change, Brock Lesnar reappeared for the first time since SummerSlam 2023 and delivered an F5 on Cena.
• Lesnar’s return follows his being named in the Janel Grant sex trafficking lawsuit, though he was not a defendant and was cleared by WWE legal weeks before the event.
• WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H said the company would move forward creatively by reintegrating Lesnar while the legal matter continues.
• Lesnar’s surprise comeback appears to set up a final showdown with Cena on his farewell tour, potentially at the Clash in Paris event on August 31.
