Raw Update – Brock Lesnar returning to WWE TV next Monday

By James Caldwell, PWTorch assistant editor

Brock Lesnar is returning to WWE TV for the first time since WrestleMania on next Monday’s Raw (August 1).

Lesnar is bringing controversy with him following his UFC 200 win and drug-testing failure that continues to hang over him.

Lesnar will be promoting his Summerslam match against Randy Orton, who is on the Smackdown brand, which has created a natural divide until Summerslam.

Orton took a subtle dig at Lesnar’s UFC issues in his own TV return Sunday night at Battleground when he was interviewed by Chris Jericho about facing Lesnar.
