WWE 2K17 is out later this year. “‘I am excited for my newest opportunity representing WWE 2K17 as the franchise’s ambassador and honored to serve as the WWE 2K17 cover superstar”.

Heyman was unable to confirm whether there would be a Brock Lesnar Showcase mode in 2K17 (although he felt there should be a Paul Heyman Advocate mode someday). Lesnar later won two additional WWE World Heavyweight Championships and had notable rivalries with WWE Superstars Undertaker, John Cena and Big Show, among others.

Furthermore, WWE gamers who pre-order WWE 2K17 now can start conjuring up a dream rematch between Lesnar and his WrestleMania XX opponent, Goldberg.

Following his WWE departure, Lesnar explored an National Football League career following interest from the Minnesota Vikings. He has also had success in the world of mixed martial arts (MMA).

According to Attack of the Fanboy, Brock Lesnar might be on the cover for this year since he is still one of the fan favorites.

Lesnar graced the cover of UFC: Undisputed 2010, back when UFC’s games were published by THQ (EA Sports now has the license). Win or lose inside the octagon, Lesnar will still appear for WWE in August at SummerSlam. We’ll reveal more of the unique and compelling Suplex City in a variety of ways leading up WWE 2K17’s release this fall.

“Ladies and gentlemen, my client has truly conquered everything in his path, and unleashing Suplex City through WWE 2K17 will be no different”, Paul Heyman said in the press release that I’m liberally copying and pasting from.
