WWE Fans Threaten Boycott Over Brock Lesnar Return

Not everyone is happy about Brock Lesnar‘s return to WWE last night at SummerSlam.
In the closing minutes of Sunday’s premium live event, Lesnar made his return to the company. The Beast Incarnate hit John Cena with an F-5 to close the show. This is Lesnar’s first appearance for the company since SummerSlam 2023, when he lost to Cody Rhodes.
Brock was set to return to the 2024 Royal Rumble, but before the event, a civil lawsuit was filed against Vince McMahon and WWE in which Lesnar was described and later confirmed to be described within the lawsuit.
While the reaction in the arena was overwhelmingly positive, the online response was a different story. So much so that there are longtime WWE fans now threatening to boycott the company over Lesnar’s return.
Here is a small collection of social media posts showcasing the negative response to Brock Lesnar’s WWE return.
I will not be posting/doing WWE content don’t know for how long but I need some distance from this

I'm hearing thousands of people have canceled their Peacock service and are unfollowing @WWE fan content creators because of the return of Brock Lesner. I researched the issue and now find myself conflicted. What the hell are you guys doing, @TripleH? Seriously. pic.twitter.com/iX7vSPLKt5

And a bunch of you always wonder why women leave this space/ industry easily because we watch who we thought were our peers say things/ side with abusers and explain away their accusations as opposed to seeing us.

None of you learned from #SpeakingOut
bringing brock lesnar back js proves that this company does not give a fuck about the victims who were involved in that lawsuit that is still ongoing btw.

So the same weekend WWE execs go to visit Trump for his fitness wack off they bring back accused (and under civil lawsuit) sex abuser /complicit sec trafficker Brock Lesnar.

We knew they're morally bankrupt but the sheer black hole of ideas at that company is astounding?? (@SBloombergo) August 4, 2025
I speak for us all when I say we will not be watching Brock Lesnar. Fuck that company bro.

as a survivor of sexual violence, I’m not sure I can continue watching WWE. they’re telling us all loudly and directly that they do not care if someone is a predator, they’ll still give them a paycheque and air time. brock lesnar was willing to participate in sex trafficking.

Bringing back Brock Lesnar is gross when you consider the fact that he’s named in an ongoing sex trafficking and rape case. This company does not care about women
