Flashback Video - Brock resigns with WWE instead of UFC

[Senzo Tanaka]

From March 2015...

After negotiating with the UFC and WWE, Brock re-signs with the WWE. Brock goes on in the interview mentioning how he's old, he has to think about his family and how he had a test training camp and thinks weren't clicking for him. He didn't like the UFC lifestyle and decided WWE would be best for him.

Fast forward a year and he's ready to fight the hardest hitter in MMA? If you don't think this one last cashgrab by Brock and the UFC, you are fooling yourself. I don't blame the guy for wanting a massive paycheck but for someone that retired because he was afraid of injury, I don't think it's the smartest move to come back against a guy that is one shotting people.

Well if you're gonna halfheartedly fight in the UFC, do it with Brock Lesnar's physique and PED test exemptions.

i think within brock's mind, which is a scary place, there is a belief -- valid or not -- that his title reign was hindered by his health and prevented him from being the heavy-weight GOAT. it's about money, yes, for it always becomes a factor in this business; but i think, too, that brock has an insatiable desire to be the champ and fully believes that the division is behind him. hunt is the kind of fight he needed, and ufc obliged.
