Brock Lesnar has not been on WWE television since dismantling John Cena at Wrestlepalooza last month. The latest reports suggest that Lesnar could challenge for the Undisputed WWE Championship at Survivor Series: WarGames.
Before Monday's episode of RAW, it seemed like the rumors about the plans for Survivor Series: WarGames were taking shape. However, Seth Rollins reportedly suffered a shoulder injury and appeared to have been written off after getting attacked by Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.
According to Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer, the plans for Survivor Series: WarGames are up in the air. Meltzer suggested giving Brock Lesnar a shot at Cody Rhodes' Undisputed WWE Championship as a reward for beating John Cena at Wrestlepalooza.
"He should wrestle Cody. I mean, if you beat John Cena the way you beat John Cena, you obviously should have a match with Cody. And, you know, maybe they don’t. I don’t know if they know how to get out of that one. You know, obviously that wasn’t the original plan for Survivor Series... Everything’s up in the air now, but I would think that, and Cody even mentioned him in a promo, which made me think that that’s a direction they’re going in," Meltzer said.

Cody Rhodes is currently in a feud with Drew McIntyre after what happened on SmackDown. Brock Lesnar is absent from television, but it seems like he's one call away from making a return.
When did Brock Lesnar last challenge for a world title?
Brock Lesnar is a seven-time WWE Champion and a three-time Universal Champion. It's been quite a while since Lesnar challenged for a world championship.
The Beast's last attempt to win a world title was at SummerSlam 2022 against Roman Reigns, as per Cagematch. Lesnar lost a Last Man Standing Match and failed to win both the WWE and Universal Titles from The Tribal Chief.
With the lack of new main event talents for Cody Rhodes to defend his title, Lesnar is a viable option. However, there has been reported backlash, especially from female employees in WWE, in bringing back The Beast.
