WWE's WrestleMania plans have been thrown into disarray by Bron Breakker's injury, and it's caused a ripple effect that has impacted several other Superstars.
A few weeks ago, on RAW, Brock Lesnar issued an open challenge at the Show of Shows. We've since heard rumblings about The Beast taking on everyone from Gunther to LA Knight and Seth Rollins. Now, though, a report from PWInsider Elite claims to reveal current creative plans for Lesnar.
The consensus among sources is that Oba Femi will face Lesnar on the Grandest Stage of Them All in Las Vegas this April. If a match with Gunther is in the works, then it won't be until later in 2026.
WWE first planted the seeds for a clash between Lesnar and Femi during the Men's Royal Rumble match in January. They had a tense faceoff, but never really locked horns, helping build anticipation for an eventual physical confrontation somewhere down the line.
Interestingly, a report from Self Made Pro claims that Lesnar has made it clear to WWE that he doesn't want to lose any matches between now and his rumoured retirement at SummerSlam in Minnesota.
"That puts WWE in a tough spot because Triple H would like to book Gunther vs. Brock and Oba vs. Brock at some point," the report explains. "But if those matches happen, Brock would likely lose in both. So it creates a real dilemma."
It doesn't seem likely that WWE would want Femi to take a loss to Lesnar at the Show of Shows, so don't be surprised if plans change yet again in the coming weeks.
Last month, Femi reflected on his viral moment with Lesnar at the Royal Rumble. "So there's so much nuance to that moment. Because there's one thing to have buzz online. But a lot of times, buzz online doesn't necessarily translate to what the casual crowd or the live crowd really wants."
"So at the beginning stages of the face off, me and Brock know that based on our reaction we both have the understanding that, wait, there might be something here," the free agent continued. "They're getting louder. It's rumbling; we have something. So in that moment, you have that mental agreement, like, yes, we know we have something, so let's not give away too much right now."
"So I'm glad you got the reaction. I'm glad the IWC desires actually translates to the live crowd and what the casual fans want to see. And that's an amazing realization. So we have something there. That's a big money fight. We're not going to blow our load on just a Rumble interaction. There's so much more that can happen there. So we'll see down the line," Femi concluded.
