Brock Lesnar's UFC return may happen according to fellow heavyweight Alistair Overeem, with "The Demolition Man" eyeing for a rematch with the current WWE superstar and former UFC heavyweight champion.

Brock Lesnar's UFC stint ended in 2011, after suffering a first round TKO defeat in the hands of Alistair Overeem. Since then, he retired from mixed martial art competition and opted to return to professional wrestling for the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

In April, Brock Lesnar ended "The Undertaker's" 21-0 undefeated "Wrestlemania" streak.

Before UFC 168 in December 2013, rumors of a Brock Lesnar UFC return began to float around. But during the UFC 169 post-fight press conference a month later, company president Dana White immediately dispelled the rumors, despite the constant communication between both parties.

"Brock Lesnar is not coming back. Brock Lesnar is not fighting," White said during the UFC 169 post fight press conference in a report by FOX Sports. "I mean does he want to come back? I mean we've talked about him wanting to come back."

"He feels like he wasn't 100-percent while he was here and he feels like he sold himself a little short and all the stuff that I've told you guys before, but no he's not (coming back)," he added, talking about Brock Lesnar's UFC return.

Brock Lesnar's UFC stint was a spectacular one, considering that he only had one mixed martial arts fight prior to his debut with the company in 2008. He ended his MMA career with a record of 5-3, while successfully defending his heavyweight title twice.

But while there are no further plans for his return to the Octagon, Alistair Overeem believes that it will happen someday, and that he will get to have another chance to face his former adversary.

"I do believe that Brock Lesnar will be coming back, I don't want to call it from retirement, but he is a huge draw, big guy, sells tickets," Overeem said in an interview with Sportskeeda. "So that's a fight I would be interested in."
