His first match back is unlikely to be against Brock Lesnar who is currently eyeing another big main event against champion Daniel Cormier. Despite his surprise appearance at Hell in a Cell, Lesnar is still expected to make his UFC return early next year. What happens in the match will likely have a significant impact on a potential Lesnar vs. Jones matchup.
