His first WWE push had more to do with major players leaving. The Rock was on the way out of the door and the Raw brand was literally being carried by Triple H and at the time had Kane in and out of the main event picture. This being the Kane that was remarkably awful to watch.

His second 'push' had very little to do with WWE. The squash match against Lesnar was entirely the idea of Lesnar. He knew Goldberg was carrying an injury and was limited and he also wanted to push the 'rivalry' further than a one and done. The mistake they made was basically taking a title off somebody for no reason other than to setup a Goldberg vs Lesnar WM match that didn't need a title.

Ultimately he's just a powerhouse wrestler with a limited skill set and was billed for the majority of his career as a monster. His only purpose in the industry now is to play the Once in a blue moon surprise return to squash a comedic jobber and leave. I can't see a return match in Saudi going any further. As above the entire purpose of him signing with WWE is literally so he gets paid not to join AEW.

Further information on Lesnar not returning to UFC doesn't just suggest its because he can't dope up anymore but also because UFC changed the way top fighters get paid. UFC are refusing to give fighters a % of the PPV revenue and are instead offering flat fees. This was the second reason Conor McGregor refused to sign a fight deal after the first being he couldn't have shares in the UFC. Lesnar believes a % would net him more than the flat fee against Cormier. He's probably right. There's Lesnar fans and then there's just as many that would relish seeing Cormier tear him to shreds. It would be a decent seller.
