Brock Lesnar hasn’t been seen on WWE TV in more than a year. Ahead of RAW’s Netflix debut later today, the company shared the opening to the show where Triple H tells the story of the pro wrestling business featuring several iconic stars.
Many eagle-eyed WWE fans have noticed that Brock Lesnar is one of the stars who is featured in the video. Before today, the company largely avoided any mention of The Beast Incarnate following a controversy. This has led to speculation that Lesnar could be part of the historic show.
Towards the end of the opening video, Lesnar can be seen on the apron performing his signature taunt while pyro explodes around the ring.
WWE has distanced itself from Lesnar over the past year because he was seemingly alluded to in Janel Grant’s lawsuit against Vince McMahon. Meanwhile, reports have claimed the company’s legal team would have to clear Lesnar before he potentially makes a comeback.
The global juggernaut was seemingly conscious of its relationship with sponsors amid the controversy. Now that RAW has made the move to Netflix, the company may not have to worry about the same issues, and there can be a loophole allowing the multi-time champion to return.

Brock Lesnar being featured on RAW’s new opening is on purpose. It seems that this is a massive development in the relationship between The Beast and WWE. Until recently, the company was apparently trying to distance itself from Lesnar due to the lawsuit against Vince McMahon.
It will be interesting to see whether Lesnar is someone who is featured on TV as part of WWE’s new era. Legends like The Rock and John Cena are set to show up on RAW’s premiere on Netflix. Tonight’s program could be one of the biggest of the year heading into Royal Rumble 2025.
