There is really no reason for him to come back for one match. He had a great first run and the only person he might have unfinished business with is Kurt Angle. He beat Taker handily, he has nothing left to prove. If he doesn't come back full time, there is really no reason. What would the story be? He was UFC champ, but now he wants to go back to the real mans sport? Sorry, but unless the writers come up with something phenomenal ( which I see as an impossibility), I dont see the "One More Match" route as anything worthwhile. I mean, he wasnt exactly a WWE Legend. He would have to at least make all of the TV tapings to build any worthwhile story. I don't necessarily see him doing that. Of course, I could be wrong.
Just for the sake of argument though, bringing him in as somones hired gun, or maybe as someone's trainer preparing for a big match would probably be the best way to re-introduce him. Then he could develop relationships with other stars, and then feuds. They can't just bring him back to go after the World title. Whether or not it was a complete sham (which I believe that it was, and he should have never gotten a title shot) he was legitamately recognized as the baddest man on the planet for awhile. The WWE title doesn't really measure up in most people's eyes.

Also, people saying Lesnar would be taking a step back if he jumps from MMA to WWE seem to have forgotten about a guy by the name of Ken Shamrock. Dan Severn, Bob Sapp. Lashley wants to wrestle again. Freaking Josh Barnett staged a pro wrestling demo with his training partner before one of his Strikeforce fights. there were a bunch of MMA fighters in pro wrestling matches on last night's DREAM card. IGF has built a niche for themselves in Japan promoting just that. Lesnar could make crap loads of money doing worked fights for IGF once or twice a year.

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. You don't even watch wrestling.

"Painkillers and Vodka". I know a lot of that was to help overcome his fear of the large amount of public speaking his role required, but still...
... And that was when WWE was still really, really good.

I know it's an obvious thing to think he'll naturally come back, but does it not seem inevitable? Brock even said pretty much if the money's right.. why wouldn't he? . Why? It seems pretty obvious: health. He's a man who has battled serious health problems in recent years. Does he really want to go on the road 300 days a year where eating/sleeping properly are a challenge? That seems unlikely. I could see a short stint like what Rock is doing, but that's all for Brock.

Bryan and Del Rio both have legit MMA training and Del Rio actually had a pretty decent MMA record so in real likfe they would have a legit chance against Lesnar...just saying.
