Brock Lesnar will NOT face Dominik Mysterio at Elimination Chamber after the former UFC champion is reportedly REMOVED from the WWE’s creative plans following his link to the sex trafficking lawsuit against Vince McMahon

  • Brock Lesnar was named in allegations against WWE founder Vince McMahon
  • Lesnar’s battles with Dominik Mysterio and Guther at Wrestlemania 40 are over
  • The former UFC champion did not appear at the last WWE Royal Rumble

Brock Lesnar has reportedly been removed from WWE’s creative plans after being linked to the sex trafficking lawsuit against founder Vince McMahon.

Lesnar has already scrapped his return to the Royal Rumble last weekend and has also been removed from the WWE video game.

The former UFC heavyweight champion has been absent from WWE programming since August, when he was defeated by Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam.

He was scheduled to face Dominik Mysterio, son of legendary wrestler Rey Mysterio, at Elimination Chamber before taking on Gunter at Wrestlemania 40.

However, this is unlikely to happen after Lesnar was removed from the company’s creative plans due to involvement in the ongoing sex trafficking lawsuit against McMahon.

Wrestling reporter Sean Ross Sap posted on X that the WWE had no plans to include Lensar in the future.

The message read: “Brock Lesnar has been removed from WWE’s creative plans.

There were discussions about having Brock Lesnar versus Gunther at WrestleMania, as we discussed last week. These are no longer planned at the moment.”

The trouble comes after former WWE employee Janel Grant filed a lawsuit against McMahon, the WWE and another executive.

She says she suffered bruising and bleeding after McMahon forcibly penetrated her with sex toys he named after his wrestlers.

Although Lesnar was not named in the lawsuit, Grant alleged that the WWE founder told her in July 2021 that she had to create sexual content for a wrestler who had previously fought in the UFC and that the company was trying to resign.

According to the lawsuit, McMahon allegedly arranged a meeting between Grant and the unnamed wrestler, with a sexual encounter between the pair ultimately not taking place as the wrestler was escorted back to their plane in an intoxicated state.

McMahon also allegedly gave Grant’s phone number to the wrestler, who then requested that she send them a video of her urinating. The lawsuit claims that after she did that, he called her a “b****.”

In their report on the allegations, the Wall Street Journal identified Lesnar as the wrestler in question.

Recently, McMahon was named executive chairman of the TKO company following a merger between WWE and the UFC.

However, on Friday, McMahon resigned from his position at TKO, before releasing a statement describing his intention to “vigorously defend” himself against the allegations.
