If I remember correctly, one of Lesnar's biggest reasons for leaving WWE was the travel schedule. I swear I remember him saying he simply couldn't do it anymore.
I doubt that has changed, especially considering he's now had the luxury of very limited traveling for the past several years. He'd obviously never work house shows, but even getting him to appear on weekly TV might be a stretch.

I realize he's got a family to support and he's gotta do what he's gotta do. I can only voice MY opinion on why I don't want to see him go back there. He's already been there and done that. I've seen him kick ass in the UFC and take some serious beatings too. The LAST thing I want to see is him back to being a phony WWE wrestler again and pretend to get beat up by guys like Bryan, Punk, Miz, Del Rio and whoever else is there now because we all know that wouldn't REALLY happen. If Brock does come back, I would let him keep the MMA character and just let him rip through everyone and not lose and keep him unbeaten. I am a big Brock fan and he can do whatever the hell he wants. I wish him luck in whatever he decides. Typical mma fan response. So he's a phony wrestler even though he put on very exciting matches that took a lot of talent to do? Look, I like the ufc but 90% of the fights there are boring as hell with guys hugging for 5 minutes but I guess that makes them big tough guy real fighters?

I always have admired the mans drive. He said his disease kicked in before the Shane Carwin fightm and Brock still fought a few more fights after that. But after watching last nights fight and seeing him get hit with those knees to the guts its clear he is still in bad shape health wise. Those knees hurt like hell sick or not but Brock looked very ill taking those knees. I don't think WWE is worth it if he has to risk further injuring his self if he is still feeling the effects of the disease.

You call him on a typical mma fan response, and finish up with a typical wrestling fan response of your own.

Or because I don't believe hugging makes you a big tough guy?

Or because I don't believe hugging makes you a big tough guy? Because it's a completely ignorant statement to make. It's called grappling and is a HUGE part of mixed martial arts. Just because fists aren't flying doesn't mean it isn't 'fighting'. Throws, grappling, position control, setting things up, holds, ect are all huge parts of fighting that people who choose to disrespect the sport, such as yourself, would call hugging for five minutes. People like you come to UFC events and boo because spit and blood aren't flying within the first two minutes of round one.

i remember reading a little bit ago that if the money was right, he'd make a deal. i don't know how long, but i assumed for only a little bit. i love lesnar and i'm sure he'll be as good in the ring as he always was.

Blood and spit wasn't flying in the Cerrone/Diaz fight and I really enjoyed that fight because they weren't just laying on the ground for 15 minutes.

I said you're the type of guy to do that based on the foolish comment you made about hugging. And not sure what fight you were watching, but Cerrone's mouth and nose looked terrible at the end of the fight. There's not going to be a fight where two guys just lay on the ground for 15 minutes. The ref will stand them up. Do some guys like to wrestlef*ck to decisions? Sure they do. But to say that 90 percent of mma is just guys on the ground hugging implies that you have very little knowledge, respect, and appreciation for the sport.

He'll be back in a year, Instead of waiting a few years to return he can return while hes young and still be a top star instead of a veteran, He'll make a ton of cash and get a lighter schedule and have a great 2nd run.

He should be the anonymous General Manager.

As Jim Ross would probably say:
Brock hasn't wrestled his last match in WWE. However, I don't see him returning any time soon and definitely no sooner than WrestleMania 35.

I think the main reasons he would be hesitant to come back to wrestling would be that he wants to spend more time with his family.
I can for sure see him working a pretty light schedule for a year or so however after that it might just be a RR - WM schedule [if that] until he is done with wrestling for good.

He has made his money, he has accomplished a lot of things with in different sports and pro wrestling. Now is the time to sit back and enjoy life. This.

I think he will come back, though maybe only for part-time matches or something like that - I also think he might rest a while before he does, so perhaps a return in the later part of 2012 or in 2013.

Why does Brock always suck on his last match/fight?
First Goldberg, now Alistair Overeem
GOD DAMNIT BROCK

He hates the travel schedule. If they get him on a decent schedule I could see it working out...but all I really see is one last match at a Mania...if that even happens.
