'WWE' 2017 Latest News & Updates: Brock Lesnar Actively Appearing En Route To Wrestlemania 33

By default, Brock Lesnar makes occasional appearances in the "WWE." Much of that has been seen in the past months with the “Beast Incarnate” coming in only when it is time for him to be unleashed. Wrestlemania 33 is coming up and it looks like he will be appearing more frequently than usual.

Brock Lesnar will reportedly appear in almost all "WWE" Raw episodes except for Feb. 13 in Las Vegas and Mar. 27 in Philadelphia. The former date is the episode tied up to the ban he received from the Nevada State Athletic Commission in connection with failed drug tests to UFC 200. He is not booked for "WWE" Fastlane but is expected to be around for “Go Home” and “Fallout” – both "WWE" Raw pay-per-views, Cageside Seats reported.

From the looks of it, this is all part of the build-up in his third match with Bill Goldberg. Both are expected to cross paths are the Royal Rumble 2017 where the rivalry will likely continue. Most are under the impression that both will once again face off at Wrestlemania 33 though the plan is reportedly saved for "WWE" Fastlane, Wrestle Zone reported.

Regardless, the dish on a third match could be a risky one for the "WWE." Goldberg repeated over Brock Lesnar at "WWE" Survivor Series which makes a third match useless. New storylines could save the day but as far as records are concerned, the reasons behind a third encounter will mostly be about drawing in numbers.

Goldberg is under contract under Wrestlemania 33 which hints at a potential loss to the “Beast Incarnate” and eventually ending his tenure. Then again, an earlier tiff could limit Goldberg’s Wrestlemania 33 participation as an inductee into the "WWE" Hall of Fame. The roadmap is sketchy at this point though a better view should be rendered once the Royal Rumble 2017 unfolds at the Alamodome in San Antonio on Jan. 29.
