Can WWE Survive the Brock Lesnar Backlash?

When Brock Lesnar returned at SummerSlam 2025, the crowd shook the stadium. But the headlines? They were about court filings and controversy — not the pop.

We’ll cut through the noise, separate fact from fiction, and talk about why WWE still bets big on “The Beast” despite the PR storm. From the psychology of wrestling fandom to the business of booking polarizing stars, this is the story behind the backlash — and what it means for WWE’s future.
