Brock should fight Roy Nelson next. He's 40 years old, a big name and has lost 6 of his last 8; plus he's ranked #10 in the rankings so potentially another win over a top 10 fighter. :ehh:

I saw the Orton tweet. So WWE just announced a random Orton vs Brock match at Summerslam with no build or story?

I actually don't mind it this way, it was announced like a UFC fight would and it's not like they can't build it from here on (after all they have 2 months)

Did anyone mention Rogan calling him "the real" Brock Lesnar? Subliminal shot at the E :heh:

That had nothing to do with WWE. It was about how the last few times you saw Brock, he was fighting diverticulitis. They only mentioned it about 100 times throughout the show that it wasn't Brock who quit in his last few fights, but it was his health that quit him. That was the entire narrative of Brock's return: The REAL, 100% healthy Brock was back in UFC to reclaim his throne.

Had absolutely nothing to do with WWE.

Still could be a shot depending on how people see it.

Anyone seeing it that way is retarded. They ran Summerslam and 2K17 promos. WWE did them a huge favor by letting Brock fight for them again. Why would they be taking shots at WWE on the same show?

People seeing it as a shot doesn't mean it was a shot. And it definitely was not a shot at all if you understand anything about the situation between the companies and the narrative of Brock's health depriving the world from ever seeing the REAL Brock in the cage until Saturday night.

I'm sure you've heard of "one man's opinion." :comeon:

:dead: at saying the E did UFC a favor. :mjlol:

I didn't start the show until Silva/DC so I wasn't up on how things were before that.

Totally not doing them a favor by letting Brock, the biggest UFC draw in history, pop back in for the biggest show in UFC history, while under contract to WWE. Okay.

UFC's already a powerhouse. If anything both companies did Brock a favor for letting him get back into it.

Same, me and my friends only watch UFC if it's Brock, McGregor or Rousey; and now CM Punk. :manny:


I get it it's "real fighting" but it ain't all that exciting to me, wrestling might be fake but it's more enjoyable imo :yeshrug:
