F4Wonline.com is reporting either June or the July Money in the Bank pay-per-view will feature the match. WWE doesn't currently plan on stretching the feud out to SummerSlam.
It's being reported WWE has 24 available dates remaining for Lesnar to use in his current contract. It's being said that most of those dates will be saved for WrestleMania season next year.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Didn't he sign with 36 dates? no way has he appeared 12 times already

Who cares? It's basically last year with the Rock all over again, just this time we are debating how many times he'll show up, instead of just "when" he'll show up.

If the guy doesn't want to be there full time then he shouldn't be there at all. I'm tired of these people coming in just to leave after a short amount of time. It takes the spotlight off the WWE champion and off the roster there

Just keep him off the mic every time he appears and I'm good. And by that I mean don't let him have a microphone. If he is going to be speaking I hope it isn't into a microphone, so I'm hoping he is silent, instead of speaking on the mic.

I thought Lesnar's deal was for a minimum of 2 dates per month with additional dates being added leading up the Wrestlemania

Personally, I'm sick of every match John Cena is in being the Main Event of the Pay-Per-View. This weekend, John Cena will fight an authority figure that absolutely sucks and no doubt it will be the main event. That takes away the credibility of the two World Title belts as well as the rest of the show; Cena could fight anyone on the roster and still mainevent; it's like he is bigger than every superstar they have, regardless of circumstance. Terrible booking. As for the Brock Lesnar thing, I love the guy on WWE TV. I think he's incredibly talented. But if he wants to use the sport that I love as a way of making a paycheck, while pissing all over the fans and the industry, he can  off. |

It had me on the edge of my seat. |

I don't see why Brock couldn't just sign on for more dates.

What makes you so sure that Cena/Johnny Ace is going to main event? Id say there is a really good chance that either world title match (preferably Punk/Bryan) could main event the PPV. I'd say the only way that Cena/Johnny main events is if Brock shows up or someone debuts to help Johnny. |

I don't see why Brock couldn't just sign on for more dates. He certainly could, but if WWE is stupid and runs out of dates to use him before the big payoff, or god forbid, in the middle of a stroyline, Brock can essentially hold WWE up for whatever kind of money or demands he wants. |

Yeah, either world title main eventing over Cena/Ace has as good a chance as I do of winning the lottery tomorrow. With the possible firing of Ace [read: no remote chance in hell of it happening] being added as a stipulation, NO WAY it doesn't main event the PPV. Cena has, no title, main evented the last 3, soon to be 4 PPVs. EC, against Kane in the ambulance match. WM against The Rock. ER against Lesnar. And now, OTL against Ace. It's garbage. ***POSSIBLE SPOILER*** ...in white... There was an admat for No Way Out a few days ago that suggested the Ace/Cena story would be furthered at NWO with Cena saying Ace has "no way out". |

So, last year it was The Rock that was a sellout, this year it's Brock. When are people going to realize that the WWE NEEDS THESE GUYS MORE THAN THEY NEED THE WWE! Do you really think The Rock needed to wrestle at Wrestlemania this year or that Brock needs to wrestle to earn a living? These guys aren't broke, they aren't starved for money. Vince is the one coming to these guys and offering them the moon to come back...neither guy needs to wrestle another match for the rest of their lives unless they really want to and unless the pay is good. If The Rock never works another day in his life he's set financially, and the same goes for Lesnar. Vince is smart enough to realize that no matter how many stars they try to build up it's still the Jerichos, Undertakers, Triple Hs, Shawn Michaels, Rocks, Lesnars, Austins, etc. that create the most mainstream attention.

Johnny Ace was actually a pretty decent worker in Japan... boring as but what Japanese wrestler doesn't have a boring character? I can think of maybe a handful. |

I'm getting sick of all these part-time half ass stuff not amounting to anything. I'll be honest I was pumped about Brock returning, but that was before I saw that it was going to be Rock part II. I'd have no problem if he's gone after this HHH angle tbh. |

With the exception of Lesnar, I agree. WWE doesn't NEED Brock Lesnar. He's not a household name like Stone Cold, The Rock, or even John Cena. He's a recognizable name and face, absolutely. But to me, they could have put just about any top guy in the ER match against Cena and it would have drawn just about the same. Lesnar sure didn't make that match, nor did having him in it break the match. I'm not saying Lesnar can't draw, but he's not NEEDED in the way someone like The Rock was for WM28. For the record, The Rock was not a sellout. He hacked it as the top guy for just about 5 years. He came back, to show that he still cares. Lesnar couldn't take it. He was there for 2 years, as the big guy, and like Hunter said Monday, when it got hard, Brock Lesnar quit. I personally think Lesnar is back for an easy payday. I honestly think that "shoot" he did on Cena, was partly true. How he didn't come back because he missed it, missed coming through the curtain, or missed the fans. I feel like he truly only cares about 2 things. Making money and Brock Lesnar. |

His UFC headlined PPVs drew massive numbers each time, he was a very large draw. |
