The Wrestling Observer is reporting that Brock Lesnar will be sticking around for a while after WrestleMania 38.

Dave Meltzer claims that Brock is currently scheduled to appear on the WrestleMania Backlash pay-per-view (8 May) and at Money In The Bank (2 July). If true, that means Lesnar would skip the Hell In A Cell show on 5 June, which is a bit of a bummer for fans in the Chicago area who were hoping to see him work.

Some might leap on this story and suggest that it gives the game away in regards to Brock's "Winner Takes All" bout opposite Roman Reigns this Sunday night. Not necessarily; Lesnar could work a rematch vs. Reigns at 'Mania Backlash, then be part of the field for MITB. He doesn't need to retain his WWE Title and win the Universal prize in order to do that.

There's no word on any other dates for Brock though. Meltzer isn't clear on his TV schedule beyond 'Mania 38, but it makes sense to believe that Lesnar would work a few Raw or SmackDown shows to build towards upcoming pay-per-view appearances.
