More Backstage Details on Brock Lesnar's Status with WWE

— According to a report by MMAFighting.com, Brock Lesnar has signed a new multi-match deal with WWE that will take him into next year and WrestleMania 35. The report details that Lesnar “secretly” agreed to a new agreement with Vince McMahon and WWE after Roman Reigns was taken off of TV due to leukemia. The exact length of the deal is not being made public, but prior reports suggested that it was for at least two matches and one of them now appears to be WrestleMania 35.

— It is also being noted that the new deal with WWE is non-exclusive, allowing Lesnar to take a fight with UFC at any time he wants. However there is much speculation on if Lesnar will even want to fight in the UFC now that he has been given a big payday by WWE and is technically contractually obligated to them.
