We might not be seeing the Universal Champ for a while...

PWInsider are reporting that Brock Lesnar's next scheduled WWE appearance is the November 13 episode of Monday Night Raw, which just so happens to be the go-home show before this year's Survivor Series pay-per-view.

Lesnar successfully defended the Universal Title against Braun Strowman at No Mercy. The match was considered disappointing by many fans on social media, but it nonetheless looks set to be Brock's last for a few months.

The Raw brand will also present TLC on October 22 before Survivor Series, and although Lesnar isn't expected to be part of that event, he was considered a shoe-in for the November 19 show. It's interesting then to learn from PWInsider that Brock hasn't yet been confirmed for Survivor Series either despite being scheduled for the final Raw before it.

Does this mean that Lesnar's appearance on the November 13 Raw is to set up something for January's Royal Rumble instead? Raw currently doesn't have a pay-per-view pencilled in for December, so that would make the most sense.

If Brock doesn't work Survivor Series, then there's a chance his match with Strowman could be his last of 2017.
