7 Potential Next Steps For Brock Lesnar After UFC 200

4. WrestleMania 33

That being said, Brock’s got to return to work at some point. Contractual obligations and all that jazz.

So while he may stay away for the winter months, he’s all-but guaranteed to appear at WrestleMania 33 next year. The only real question is in what capacity it will be.

At this point, it seems like the Rock would be the only possible opponent who could hang with Lesnar in terms of his star power. And while it wouldn’t be the first time these two have faced off, the circumstances surrounding a 2017 match would be unbelievably different to those of their 2002 meeting at SummerSlam.

Plus, Brock vs. Rock just sounds good, doesn’t it?

Other than that, Lesnar has reached such a larger-than-life status that the list of alternatives is fairly short. He might be asked to give someone else the rub, though I couldn’t possibly imagine which Guy that would be… or perhaps the company can build a star to rival Lesnar in the time between now and ‘Mania.

At the moment though, that second option doesn’t seem too likely.
