Brock Lesnar's WWE SmackDown Return, RAW Main Event Stat On Roman Reigns, Zack Sabre Jr.

- As noted, Brock Lesnar will make his first WWE SmackDown appearance in years at tomorrow's tapings from Ontario, California. As of last week, the event was not sold out but it was selling well ahead of the usual pace.

- Going into last Monday's WWE RAW from Seattle, Roman Reigns had been in the main event segment of 14 of the last 16 weeks of RAW, according to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter. Reigns also appeared in the main event spot 11 weeks in a row at one point. Before the Seattle RAW with Daniel Bryan's retirement, the last RAW episode without Reigns in the headline spot was October 12th, 2015, which featured Kane vs. Seth Rollins in a Lumberjack Match.

- Top indie star Zack Sabre Jr. has been a rumored WWE prospect for over a year now. It looks like his way into the company could be through EVOLVE and their working relationship with WWE. The Observer reports that Sabre Jr. is getting a work visa and is expected to work full-time for EVOLVE this year.
