Summary
- Brock Lesnar issued an open challenge for WrestleMania 42.
- Royce Keys and Chris Jericho are potential opponents.

Brock Lesnar made a significant return to WWE programming on February 23rd, challenging any competitor to face him at WrestleMania 42. This open challenge has immediately ignited speculation about potential opponents. One prominent name being discussed is Royce Keys, formerly known as Powerhouse Hobbs in AEW, who recently made his WWE debut in the 2026 Men's Royal Rumble match.
Another intriguing possibility is Chris Jericho. While still officially listed on the AEW roster, rumors persist about his potential return to WWE. Should Jericho secure a release from his current contract, WWE could position him as a surprise opponent for Lesnar at The Showcase of the Immortals.
Furthermore, Cody Rhodes, currently slated for the 2026 Men's Elimination Chamber match, presents another compelling narrative. With fan sentiment shifting, if Rhodes doesn't pursue the world title, he could accept Lesnar's challenge, reigniting their high-profile feud from 2023 on the grandest stage of them all.
