Brock Lesnar Net Worth, Salary And Latest WWE New Contract Details
According to Fightful Select, Brock Lesnar’s new WWE contract would see him last for roughly a year and a half. This means that his new contract will carry him through early 2023 and possibly Wrestlemania 39. Under the renewed contract, it is believed that the eight-time World Champion has agreed to wrestle in 8-12 matches. However, this does not include the appearances he will make on television, just the times when he’ll officially be in action.
While fans were not supposed to see Brock Lesnar return as a babyface this early, WWE reportedly decided to put together a last-minute return to counter CM Punk’s return to rival promotion AEW.

Though Lesnar did not make an appearance on the Smackdown after Summerslam, he is all set to do so this week. On the other hand, Roman Reigns will defend the Universal title and wind up some unfinished business with Finn Balor. However, the Reigns-Balor gimmick will only be a short, transitional one now that Lesnar has arrived. He will definitely face Roman Reigns, either at Extreme Rules or Saudi Arabia’s Crown Jewel in October.
