I heard last Saturday on a mexican channel, before showing UFC, that Brock Lesnar had only 1 fight left on his contract, so doesn't that mean that the ones here saying "Never gonna happen" could be wrong? I think he is on medical suspension, so no. That and the way Dana said in an interview about him taking time off, I don't see him fighting before Mania if he wasn't. Maybe next Mania.

That's okay for me, I mean, I wasn't sure on facts since I don't follow UFC or and MMA promotion as much as I do with wrestling. I was actually not expecting or hoping for Lesnar, but I do hate when people just come and say never, when it's been proven that in this business indeed everything can happen, at any time.

God people are stupid. When will they realize that Brock is UNDER CONTRACT to the UFC. Even if he wanted to come back(which he probably doesn't), Dana wouldn't allow his biggest draw to make money for the WWE and possibly injure himself.

Brock is under EXCLUSIVE CONTRACT. He will NOT BE AT WRESTLEMANIA unless he is a fan in the crowd. Jesus Christ these rumors are pathetic. Plus, how would anyone know he wants to be at Mania when he hasn't done a single interview ANYWHERE since his fight? He's in the ing woods somewhere, probably unaware of the rumors.

White is a whore. He's not letting Lesnar do it because Vince won't put HIM in Wrestlemania too... Wait, wait wait wait...WAIT! Dana is NOT a female?!

why risk one of your main draws being legitimately hurt in some other company. common sense imo.

anyone that thought Dana would let this happen was dreaming. Brock is his cash cow, why would he let someone else make a dollar off of him? Dana is a lot of things but a bad businessman is not one of those things. Dana could still make some money off the fight still, and that would make him a good business man. he'll make more money off of Brock if he keeps him as a fighter not a pro wrestler. bottom line.

White is a whore. He's not letting Lesnar do it because Vince won't put HIM in Wrestlemania too. If Vince said, "We have a part for you to play, Dana", White would totally be into it. White wants to be Vince. I'll be a professional wrestling fan until the day I die, but fellow fans really piss me off sometimes. Do you have any clue what you're talking about? Dana White IS the Vince McMahon of MMA, and UFC is the WWE, if one must make the comparison. Dana White does not believe in cross promotion. It's the same reason that, even though both were owned by Zuffa, Dana didn't want the WEC logos to be seen anywhere on Spike for Aldo vs Faber. Fellow fans piss you off? Poor you. I didn't say he wasn't the Vince of UFC, I meant he wanted to BE Vince. He wants a billion dollar company that he can run pretty much any way he wants and to be able to do whatever he wants. He doesn't believe in cross-promotion because he wants to control everything. He doesn't like to share the spotlight. If there is a cross-promotion, that means less time for him to be the center of attention. It's about his ego, not the company. He goes around saying how he is President and has partners, but only owns 10 percent of UFC and Zuffa. He is an attention whore. Every episode of The Ultimate Fighter that I've seen(Ortiz & Liddell whole season, other eps) had White on just there. Then he has to be interviewed after every ppv? No necessary. He should go back to teaching women how to do jumping jacks correctly.

Why are people even still discussing this? He was never involved in any negotiations and he was never going to come in to do anything.
It's not like Taker was sent to that show to promote the beginning of a feud, he went, out of character, Michelle in tow to see a fight. Brock happened to walk past him on his way out and they had a little stare down because of their history in WWE.
Why does it have to be more than that?

According to Powerslam magazine, the altercation with 'Taker and Lesnar was absolutely planned by WWE to set up a possible match at WM27.

According to sources, Dana White may or may not say "yes" in the future.

Whilst Dana is considered a womans name these days, if you hit around the 40 years mark, you'll find some men with the name still, such as Dana White, who is around that age.

We have a better chance of Hulk Hogan vs Ultimate Warrior 3 main eventing WM27 than having Brock Lesnar vs Undertaker.

A reporter asked, “He can’t fake fight for the WWE?” Lol, fake fight. That hurts. That's the thing, non fans and media can call it fake fighting all they want but Dana knows of the risk involved to the performers and why would he risk a fighter that he has under contract.
