Lesnar has not fought in the octagon since he positive for in in-competition and out-of-competition drug tests pertaining to his UFC 200 fight in July 2016 with Mark Hunt. Lesnar won the match by unanimous decision before it was changed to a no-contest following the positive tests. Lesnar was hit with a year-long suspension and fined $250,000 by the Nevasa state Athletic Commission. He decided to announce his retirement in Feb. 2017 and then signed with the WWE. 

Lesnar's is expected to leave the WWE after his match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 34 on Sunday. White previously said that Lesnar is signed with the WWE through August 2018.

Lesnar would be required to re-enter the drug testing pool for at least six months before he can fight again.
