Brock Lesnar is headed back to Monday Night RAW.
On Friday’s episode of SmackDown in Buffalo, New York at the KeyBank Center on FOX, the WWE Champion and Paul Heyman walked down to the ring to open the show.
In this segment, Heyman cut a promo about Lesnar beating former UFC Heavyweight Champion Cain Velasquez at the WWE Crown Jewel pay-per-view event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia in two minutes. The full match aired during this.

This led to Heyman talking about Lesnar being upset because of the chair shots he took from Rey Mysterio after the match.
Heyman would tell a story about how he told Vince McMahon to give him Mysterio but McMahon wouldn’t allow that. The reason for that is due to Mysterio being exclusive to RAW and Lesnar was exclusive to SmackDown.
Heyman would announce that Lesnar is quitting SmackDown and is slated to be on the hunt for Mysterio on Monday’s episode of RAW.
This could be done due to there being two top championships on the SmackDown brand.
Bray Wyatt beat Seth Rollins to win the WWE Universal Title at Crown Jewel and because Wyatt is a SmackDown star, he took the championship with him to the show.
