Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated reports that the WWE may soon be getting a new Universal Champion. According to Barrasso,
“According to sources close to WWE, Lesnar is widely expected to drop the belt, at the latest, by SummerSlam. Because Lesnar’s new contract pays him by the fight, dropping the belt could signal the end of his time in WWE.”
Barraso speculated that if Brock Lesnar would indeed be finished with the WWE, so would his long-time advocate Paul Heyman. According to Barrasso, Heyman could end up at the upcoming All In event,
“If Lesnar is, in fact, finished with WWE following SummerSlam, then Paul Heyman would also be finished with the company as there are no current plans for Heyman outside of his role as Lesnar’s on-screen advocate. SummerSlam takes place on Sunday, August 19, which would make Heyman a free agent by the end of the month. Just as fun h, with the All In show on September 1 in Chicago, wouldn’t a CM Punk/Heyman pairing at the show drive pay per view sales?”
