#5. Paul Heyman confirms Brock Lesnar’s WWE retirement
Brock Lesnar and Oba Femi had a hellacious contest inside Hell in a Cell in Minnesota, but The Ruler finally proved The Beast Incarnate wrong on Saturday, ending their feud at WWE SummerSlam. The former NXT Champion has moved on; Lesnar might’ve done the same, as he seemingly retired from in-ring competition.
On Instagram, Heyman shared pictures from Saturday night’s match in Minneapolis. However, the caption raised a few eyebrows. In the post, The Beast Incarnate’s advocate claimed that this was Brock Lesnar’s last match ever in the Stamford-based promotion.
After SummerSlam, multiple stars, including Oba Femi, paid tribute to Brock Lesnar. While reports suggest that The Beast Incarnate hasn’t retired, only time will reveal whether The Oracle’s statement is accurate or if we will see the three-time Universal Champion again in the future.
#4. WWE won’t bring popular athlete back – Report
Last month, WWE used Ryan Garcia, a professional boxer, in a segment with Joe Hendry and Danhausen on Monday Night RAW. After Garcia’s attack on Hendry, The Judgment Day swooped in and blindsided Hausen and Minihausens ahead of The Biggest Party of the Summer in Minnesota.
While Garcia didn’t join the villainous stable, the audience assumed he would make more appearances in the Stamford-based promotion ahead of his fight against Conor Benn in September 2026. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.
According to WrestleVotes on Fightful Select, Garcia will not return to the Stamford-based promotion. The insider also disclosed that many people disapproved of the boxer’s locker-room appearance, suggesting that another appearance is unlikely.
#3. Roman Reigns’ next WWE opponent confirmed – Report
Roman Reigns closed the oldest chapter in his wrestling journey when he defeated Seth Rollins cleanly in the middle of the ring, without The Bloodline, at SummerSlam for the World Heavyweight Championship. The two former Shield members paid homage to Dean Ambrose and ended their long-standing feud in the Stamford-based promotion.
After the event, Roman Reigns appeared on Monday Night RAW and decided to have a face-to-face with LA Knight after Knight, Royce Keys, and Solo Sikoa defeated The Bloodline in a six-man tag team match in Minnesota. The two shared the ring, and The Original Tribal Chief asked The Megastar to get back in line and not to waste his time.
According to the Wrestling Observer Radio, Roman Reigns vs. LA Knight seems to be the plan for the upcoming Money in the Bank Premium Live Event in New Orleans, Louisiana. The two previously had a singles match for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship at Crown Jewel in 2023, which Knight lost. It’ll be interesting to see what’s next for Knight on the red brand.
#2. Two World Champions made their return on WWE RAW
At SummerSlam in Minnesota, Liv Morgan proved the audience wrong when she defeated IYO SKY for the Women’s World Championship. The ladies of The Judgment Day currently have momentum on their side, as Raquel Rodriguez recently won the Women’s Intercontinental Championship from Sol Ruca.
On the recent edition of Monday Night RAW, Roxanne Perez faced Ruca in a singles match. The match ended in disqualification as the ladies of The Judgment Day attacked the former champion. After the attack, Becky Lynch returned to the red brand for the first time since June.
The Man went after the Women’s World Champion, and the two exchanged shots. As the trio was leaving, Stephanie Vaquer returned to the promotion for the first time since WrestleMania 42 and attacked them. Big Time Becks assisted La Primera, and the two former Women’s World Champions stood tall in the ring.
#1. Big Cass returned to WWE for the first time in eight years
In 2018, Big Cass was released from the Stamford-based promotion, and Cass eventually began working on the independent circuit. Later, he signed with All Elite Wrestling as Big Bill and captured the AEW World Tag Team Championship with Ricky Starks, aka Ricky Saints.
Last month, WWE ran vignettes of Cass’ upcoming return to the Stamford-based promotion, and the 39-year-old star was slated to return on the red brand following SummerSlam in Minnesota. On the recent edition of Monday Night RAW, Bigg Cass made his long-awaited return to the company.
The 39-year-old WWE star attacked Je’Von Evans following his match with Ethan Page. The former AEW World Tag Team Champion hit an East River Crossing on Evans to close the segment. Interestingly, he returned to the company without Enzo Amore, and only time will tell what’s next for Big Cass under the new regime.
