WWE Rumors: Brock Lesnar Contract Information, Dean Ambrose Pushed to SummerSlam?
The latest round of WWE rumors deals with Brock Lesnar's new contract and some news on Dean Ambrose, so let's get to it. As always, these are just rumors, so please treat them as such.
Infamous Reddit user MetsFan4Ever was back in action this week with a report about Brock Lesnar's new contract that locks him up with the WWE once again. Here's what he had to say:
"I have been told that Brock Lesnar's contract is set for 3 years at $3 million a year. Brock is working a limited schedule during this new contract just like he was with his older contract.
The WWE championship match has been heavily discussed since Brock has confirmed to be staying with WWE. Writers have been working night and day with Vince, Triple H and their inner circle on possible outcomes for the match.
I am being told that Vince is on board with the idea of having Brock retain the WWE title, Cena win the U.S. title and either Sheamus or Daniel Bryan winning the I.C. title. It is still not confirmed however what role if any Sheamus will play at WrestleMania.
I have also been told Roman Reigns is being compared to Lex Luger and his push in 1993 and early 1994. Lex was pushed to the moon but never got over as the WWE wanted at the time. Thus Vince went with the fan favorite Bret Hart and Luger fizzled of into mid-card status.
I have also been told that Dean Ambrose is to get a heavy push leading into SummerSlam."
But Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer responded with this on the Observer's message board.
"$3 million figure is incorrect.
Vince's take on Reigns as Luger is incorrect. Vince very high on him still.
The writers have zero to do with Brock vs. Reigns. It is all Vince. HHH may have some influence, but he'd be the only one because Vince is not taking input from anyone except him, and it's possible he'll listen to Heyman. Also, whatever his idea is, he's not telling ANYONE (except maybe HHH or if Dwayne' s involved, and I don't know if he is or not) as of today.
Whatever Sheamus is doing, and he is booked on the show, is already planned out and all the key people know what it is."
