It's all UFC stuff, but uploaded by TNA and has Angle who was there at the time.

I never heard anything about TNA trying to sign Brock Lesnar. UFC and TNA were both on Spike TV and Impact was being used to plug the UFC PPV where Brock Lesnar fought Frank Mir. Lesnar was under UFC contract and prohibited from doing pro wrestling matches.

Brock signing to TNA along with the company leaving the Impact Zone could have changed the landscape of the wrestling industry.

No. The company had hulk Hogan, ric flair, sting, kurt angle, Jeff hardy, rob van dam, AJ styles, samoa Joe, Bobby roode, scott Steiner, kazuchika okada, etc. at the same time and people still refused to watch |

Imagine Brock in the Main Event Mafia instead of Joe.

I meant all those guys were on the roster at the same time in 2010-2011 |

I do remember this.
I wanna say that this was around the time Lesnar was wrestling in Japan too, wasn't it?? Because Kurt had just won a title off Lesnar in Japan I think.
This was a strange time for wrestling for TNA. It was like they were on the verge to break out and be a serious threat and then things changed over time.

No, he was getting his MMA career started at the time. Lesnar wrestled in Japan from 2004-2006 |

It was 2007. So Lesnar was still doing wrestling then. But even if he was getting his MMA career started in 2008, they still used wrestling and Angle to get him noticed.

I would argue it was a 'tease' run. He still had a lot ahead of him at this point. The examples of Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair, Sting, Kurt Angle, Jeff Hardy, RVD and Scott Steiner didn't have the same kind of appeal. |

Lesnar had an issue with the company in Japan not paying him, he only came back to wrestle Kurt so he can drop the title. |

Gotta disagree. At the same time, the WWE was doing their weekly guest host crap. |

They’d have to sell the whole company to even negotiate with him
