• Big Return Announced For RAW
WWE has announced that Brock Lesnar will return to RAW on February 23. This will be The Beast’s first appearance on the red brand in 2026.
Lesnar last appeared on WWE programming at Royal Rumble 2026. He lasted in the Men’s Royal Rumble for only 5 minutes. He eliminated 3 men: Oba Femi, Ilja Dragunov, and Rey Fenix. The 2-time Royal Rumble winner was eliminated by Cody Rhodes and LA Knight in the end.
During Lesnar’s interaction with Dragunov, Dragunov delivered multiple chops to Lesnar, but Brock no-sold them and threw Ilja out of the ring.
Brock Lesnar effortlessly eliminating Ilja Dragunov while on his Royal Rumble lunch break—and upsetting morbidly obese Twitter accounts in the process—is one of the funniest goddamn things I've ever seen in my life

According to Fightful Select, multiple wrestlers sent them eye rolling reactions after seeing fans on social media celebrate Brock no-selling Ilja’s offense.

• WWE Has Planted Seeds For Ex-NJPW Star’s Debut Despite AEW Interest
The decade-long Japanese odyssey of David Finlay reached an emotional crossroads on February 11, 2026. Following a high-stakes singles match against Callum Newman at The New Beginning in Osaka, Finlay appeared to bid an unmistakable farewell to the promotion that has been his home since 2015.
With Finlay now positioned as one of the most coveted free agents in the industry, the battle for his signature is intensifying between the two biggest promotions in North America.
According to Bodyslam, Finlay has become a major topic of internal discussion within WWE. While a contract hasn’t been officially confirmed, the company has reportedly been planting seeds for his arrival. This includes recent on-screen developments in NXT involving his younger brother, Uriah Connors (Brogan Finlay), left Chase University, which many view as a strategic move to integrate the fourth-generation star into the family’s storied legacy.
Meanwhile, Self Made Pro reports that AEW is aggressively pursuing a unique dual contract for Finlay. This arrangement would allow him to be based primarily in the United States while maintaining the flexibility to return to NJPW for major events.
As David prepares to step away from the Lion Mark, the wrestling world is watching closely to see if he chooses the path of his father, Fit Finlay, in WWE or opts for the hybrid freedom offered by Tony Khan.
