Paul Heyman Says Brock Lesnar Will Be At Chicago House Show
Paul Heyman says Brock Lesnar will fulfill his obligations.
On Monday's Raw, WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar was advertised to appear and his advocate Paul Heyman said he would be there but Lesnar did not appear. His future Wrestlemania opponent Roman Reigns said Lesnar no-showed Raw and Reigns criticized Lesnar for not being there and meeting with Dana White instead of going to WWE Elimination Chamber.
On Twitter, Paul Heyman said Lesnar will be at a Live Event in Chicago because it is in his contract.
