Brock Lesnar shocked the WWE Universe three weeks back when he came down to the ring after the end of the main event match between Roman Reigns and Riddle. The title match between the two ended early and there were hopes of a superstar returning at the end of the show.
Lesnar entered the ring and trumped the Head of the Table by hitting him with an F5. Just a few minutes after Smackdown went off the air, WWE confirmed a Last Man Standing match between them. The match will take place at SummerSlam on July 30.
For the first time since his Smackdown comeback, Lesnar will be part of a WWE event as he has been advertised for next week's Raw. WWE has confirmed that the former Universal champion will be on Raw on July 11 which takes place in San Antonio, Texas.
