The pop at the home of the New York Giants and Jets was deafening, and the reaction on social media was wild, as many fans loved to see one of WWE's greatest rivalries rekindled.
However, the other side of the coin was shock, with a combination of disappointment. The main reason for Lesnar's absence is that he was directly named in the sex trafficking lawsuit against Vince McMahon (he is not listed as a defendant).
Former WWE employee Janel Grant alleged that McMahon attempted to get Grant to have sex with Lesnar, in order to entice Lesnar to re-sign with the company.
"WWE benefited financially from the commercial sex act venture orchestrated by McMahon, including by having wrestling talent, such as Brock Lesnar, sign new contracts with WWE after McMahon presented Ms. Grant as a sexual commodity for their use," the suit alleges.
Thus, his return on Sunday drew the ire of many fans.
