Triple H appeared on ESPN's First Take this morning to promote Summerslam. When asked if Brock Lesnar is done with the company this weekend after he wrestles Oba Femi in Hell in A Cell, Paul Levesque commented:
"...20-plus years. I’ve known him personally for that 20-plus years. The one thing that I know more than anything else about Brock Lesnar is Brock Lesnar’s going to do whatever Brock Lesnar wants to do.
So, when we get to Minnesota, when we get to this match—keep in mind, Brock, I believe in his mind, retired at WrestleMania. I believe that wasn’t enough for him. I believe he wanted to come back to prove Oba wrong. He did that. He then wanted to go to Minnesota to SummerSlam, to his hometown. He wanted it inside Hell in a Cell. He has something here to prove. But the one thing I know about Brock Lesnar is it’s whatever he wants.
So win, lose, draw, when that cage goes up, when it’s all over, no matter what the outcome, I’m going to be watching that monitor just like you’re watching the monitor, just like millions of people are going to be watching at home, wondering what the hell Brock Lesnar’s going to do next.
It’s really in his court as to what he wants to do. Like I said, for Brock, there’s always gas left in the tank, I believe. He is one of those generational athletes. It’s just a matter of: is this the right time for him? He’s come up against something like he hasn’t come up against in a long time, maybe since The Undertaker, in Oba Femi.
You know, it all comes down to what does he see next for Brock? The great ones know when to call it a day. Brock will know, but he’ll tell us in real-time, live, in Minnesota at SummerSlam. Or say never.
If there’s a desire to see it, if the fans want to see it, if there’s a way to get it done, WWE will get it done. That’s what we do."
