Brock Lesnar was not specifically named in the earth-shattering lawsuit that Janel Grant filed against Vince McMahon, WWE and John Laurinaitis. The Beast Incarnate was heavily implied, as a former UFC Heavyweight Champion was mentioned. Now, that connection to this damning lawsuit has disrupted WrestleMania plans.
Bron Breakker took over Lesnar's planned creative for the Royal Rumble match. The entry point, eliminations, and his eventual elimination were all originally intended for Lesnar.
Breakker was called up to the WWE main roster thanks to that last-minute change. That being said, Breakker will not be taking Lesnar's planned spot against Dominik Mysterio at the Elimination Chamber premium live event.
Dave Meltzer reported during his daily update that Gunther was supposed to face Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania. While it's not confirmed that they were planned to have as an IC title match, that match is now on hold.
"The Lesnar creative which at this point he's not going to be involved with unless they decide they would bring him back, was Lesnar vs. Dominik Mysterio in Australia and Lesnar vs. Gunther (I don't know factually an IC title match but one would expect) at WrestleMania. Whether Bron Breakker gets those matches is not clear yet."
The Janel Grant lawsuit didn't specify any wrestler but described one as both a former UFC Heavyweight Champion fighter and WWE talent. Given the timeline is 2021, it's pretty easy to narrow down those choices, although it is important to reiterate that Brock Lesnar was not named.
The lawsuit stated that McMahon shared explicit photos with the WWE Superstar, who said that, "he likes what he sees." Four WWE Producers and television production techs were also allegedly received this explicit content.
"In March 2020, McMahon began sharing sexually explicit photographs and videos of Ms. Grant (including pornographic content he recorded) with other men both inside and outside the company, including with members of the television production “tech” team, executive(s), 4 producer(s), and a world-famous athlete and former UFC Heavyweight Champion with whom WWE was actively trying to sign to a new contract (and ultimately did sign that contract)."
In December of the same year, McMahon allegedly provided Grant's personal cellphone number to the unnamed WWE Superstar. The lawsuit claims that the wrestler requested a video of her urinating, and after she complied, he used derogatory language, calling her 'b*tch." She was also later told that sleeping with this talent was a part of his contract renewal, although a "play date" could not be arranged.
