As we all know by now, WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar has been rumored to drop his WWE Universal Title at WWE SummerSlam to Roman Reigns and compete in The UFC to challenge UFC Heavyweight & Light Heavyweight Champion Daniel Cormier for his UFC Heavyweight Title. But for Lesnar to do this he has to undergo a USADA Drug Test and sit out the rest of his suspension. It is being said that Lesnar recently underwent his third USADA Drug Test after re-entering the pool during the first of the month. Lesnar will be eligible to return to The UFC in January 2019. Lesnar was trending on Twitter during last night’s RAW with many fans commenting on how lean he looked, speculating that this had to do with the drug tests.
It is worth noting that Heyman mentioned several times on RAW how Lesnar is planning to defeat Reigns at SummerSlam and go on to win The UFC Heavyweight Title from Daniel Cormier to become a dual-sport champion. As previously reported, last night’s RAW saw major storyline issues between Lesnar and Paul Heyman, which may give some insight into post-SummerSlam plans. Heyman was bullied by his client and told that they are not friends. RAW ended with Lesnar assaulting Heyman and laying Angle out with the F5. There is no word yet on if Lesnar will be back on The RAW before SummerSlam, but he is scheduled for the post-SummerSlam RAW in Brooklyn.
Speaking of UFC, UFC Hall of Famer Matt Hughes & Interim UFC Welterweight Champion Colby Covington were backstage for last night’s RAW in Miami. Below are photos of Colby with Ronda Rousey and Hughes with Jinder Mahal, Tyson Kidd, Natalya & Rousey:
