With WWE announcing Brock Lesnar’s WWE SummerSlam opponent on this week’s SmackDown, the speculation going around is that Lesnar will be facing Randy Orton at the show.

Orton is scheduled to visit the WWE Performance Center next week to train as he anticipates being medically cleared to return to the ring. He’s been out since December 2015 with shoulder surgery.

Lesnar returns to UFC this Saturday night at UFC 200 in a fight that could very well result in injuries that would prevent him from competing at SummerSlam. WWE is taking a major gamble by having Lesnar fight at UFC 200 and they’ve compounded the situation by announcing Lesnar’s SummerSlam match before that show. The upside is that UFC will likely hype Lesnar’s SummerSlam match at UFC 200, which could result in some UFC fans subscribing to the WWE Network.
