This seemed obvious after he retained the Universal championship in the main event of WrestleMania 34 last night (Sun., April 8, 2018) in New Orleans, but Brock Lesnar has re-signed with WWE. That’s according to the company itself, who sent out a press release announcing as much.
It’s also been revealed a rematch with Roman Reigns is set for the upcoming Greatest Royal Rumble event in Saudi Arabia:
STAMFORD, Conn. — WWE Chairman & CEO Vince McMahon announced today that Universal Champion Brock Lesnar has re-signed with WWE. Lesnar’s next appearance is scheduled for the Greatest Royal Rumble event, where he will compete against Roman Reigns in a Steel Cage Match for the Universal Title at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia on Friday, April 27, at 7 p.m. AST.
