SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

WWE and Brock Lesnar are set to return to the Los Angeles market again in 2015, but not at the Staples Center.

WWE has booked the Great Western Forum (now branded the “Fabulous” Forum) in Inglewood, Calif. for a house show on Saturday, December 19.

Lesnar is advertised along with John Cena, WWE World Hvt. champion Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, Randy Orton, and The Dudleys.

Plus, Sheamus, Bray Wyatt, Dolph Ziggler, IC champion Kevin Owens, Ryback, The Miz, and Divas.

Tickets go on-sale next Friday, November 6, the same day that WrestleMania 32 tickets go on-sale.

WWE just ran the Staples Center on Sunday for the Hell in a Cell PPV featuring Lesnar vs. The Undertaker in the blow-off match of their feud.

However, Staples was unavailable for the Dec. 19 date due to a concert featuring “Muse.” The rock band was originally scheduled for Dec. 18 before adding a second date on Dec. 19.

The Forum was previously home to the Los Angeles Lakers before they moved to Staples. The iconic arena hosted the Lakers’s NBA Title runs during the 1970s and ’80s.
