Brock Lesnar has been been flagged by the USADA for a potential doping violation.

Friday evening, the UFC released a statement that Lesnar failed a test on June 28th, but following USADA regulations, they did not release the substance that was caught in his system. The UFC's anti-doping partner will conduct a "full adjudication process" before any sanction is levied. The Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC) also has jurisdiction, because of the test's proximity to UFC 200 in Las Vegas.

Lesnar is scheduled to take on the returning Randy Orton at next month's SummerSlam, but it's unclear at this juncture in time if Lesnar will be cleared. With Roman Reigns being popped earlier with a Wellness Policy violation, this doesn't bode well for business in the WWE.

It should be noted that Lesnar was tested by USADA six times in the four weeks leading up to UFC 200.
