Brock Lesnar Removed From WWE 2K24 'Forty Years Of WrestleMania' Cover Art
Brock Lesnar's name did not appear in Janel Grant's lawsuit against Vince McMahon, WWE, and John Laurinaitis. However, the mention of a former UFC Heavyweight Champion negotiating a new contract with WWE raised concerns for Lesnar. Now, he is being erased.
2K has already removed Lesnar from their SuperCard mobile game, and it appears he will not be featured in WWE 2K24. It was also reported that they will make efforts to remove him from the game.
Now, those changes are being seen. A new cover of the Forty Years of WrestleMania is out, and Lesnar is gone, He was replaced by John Cena on the cover. They did not add anyone to the new cover, but they shuffled things around to make Cena larger and take the Beast Incarnate out.
The lawsuit from Grant alleges that Lesnar requested a video of Grant urinating and proposed a "play date" as part of his contract negotiations. Despite the date not materializing as planned, the lawsuit alleges it eventually occurred.
Brock Lesnar didn't make his planned WWE return during the 2024 Royal Rumble event after Janel Grant's lawsuit dropped. There is a belief that he may not be back.
Lesnar made big money for WWE for years. There is an assumption in WWE that if Vince McMahon was still in charge, then Lesnar would be booked despite the allegations against him. Of course, Vince is the reason why Lesnar is in this situation in the first place now.
As of this writing, Lesnar's camp has not responded to this lawsuit. Vince already denied everything, and Johnny Ace is claiming to be a victim in the situation.
