In an update on WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar’s contract with the WWE, his final date on his current deal will be the WrestleMania 34 pay-per-view in April 2018, however Lesnar’s contract includes an option for the WWE to renew Lesnar’s deal, which is believed to be exercised.

If both sides do not come to a new deal, WWE retain several rights regarding Brock Lesnar that do not expire until August 2018, something that UFC President Dana White noted when questioned recently about the potential of Lesnar returning to the Octagon for another fight.

UFC had initially planned for Lesnar to face off against Jon Jones when the time was right for Lesnar, however due to Jones’ USADA suspension, those plans are now completely off the table.
