Brock Lesnar breaking Shawn Michaels arm on last night’s RAW was obviously a storyline but…

… they played it quite well.

The wrestling world of the internet is trying to make it seem like that Lesnar breaking Shawn Michaels HBK’s arm last night was real, when it was obviously fake, for a storyline angle. Back in the early 2000’s years when Brock was around WWE, he was looked at as a Monster, a tough guy you wouldn’t want to mess with. Ever since Lesnar returned to WWE, they’ve been making Brock look weak, but I see that the WWE did that on purpose ’cause they wanted to make it unpredictable, when Brock Lesnar the monster will make a return. Well, Brock the monster came back last night. Being the dominating force that he’s supposed to be. Shawn Michaels played the broken arm segment very well, making it seem realistic, maybe that’s why people on the internet thought it was real?

I remember back in the Attitude era, when Brock Lesnar teamed up with Vince McMahon to feud with Zach Gowen (the young, one legged wrestler). I remember the incident where Brock threw Zach down the stairs (search for the video in youtube, you’ll find it). Well last night’s segment with Brock, Shawn Michaels and Triple H brought back memories to the Zach Gowen angle. It was kind of similar.

Last night’s RAW ended really good though. Paul Heyman is a phenomenal mic worker when doing promos, he has always been amazing on the mic. I think Heyman is probably the best mic worker in wrestling history. He does a really good job on making you want to hate, Brock Lesnar, and be scared of him.

I’m not going to be watching “Summer Slam” this Sunday since I gave up watching WWE ppv’s, but I do kind of want to see the Brock vs. Triple H match. As for my prediction on who will win that match, probably Lesnar. Lesnar has been losing matches ever since he first returned to WWE this year, and WWE would want to make him go on top and push him heavily. Brock is only around for a short WWE run this year, but I heard that WWE is trying to extend Brock’s contract so he can be around more.

Lesnar matters in WWE ’cause he put a lot of guys over in the business, and he was the one who helped shape up the Attitude Era. WWE wanted him back this year ’cause they needed him back. WWE was getting stale without him, and the company is getting interesting again with him being back. Brock is the only one that can bring shock factor back in the WWE and he’s the only one who can do it well. WWE haven’t had anything shocking happen in a long while ever since the Nexus group took over the RAW set.

It was a pretty good RAW last night. Look like Jericho is getting a face turn (Good guy wrestler) ’cause’s been bringing his old catch phrases back lately.

I must say that WWE did a great job keeping Lesnar’s return unpredictable, I never expected it!!!

I knew Brock Lesnar was going to return to WWE at some point since he’s all done with UFC, but I didn’t think his return would be the night after Wrestlemania! The WWE did a good job staying silent about his return and keeping it top secret, the best they can. Somehow the RAW audience already knew Brock was coming back ’cause they were chanting his name and holding signs in the air with Brock’s name on it. They’re probably the “smart” fans that look at wrestling news on the internet.

John Cena here did a great acting job. Cena did a great job pretending to look shocked for Brock’s return. Cena was out there to call out the Rock to the ring, but instead Lesnar came out. I knew a different wrestler was going to come out instead of the Rock, I just didn’t think it would be Lesnar. The WWE really shocked everyone this time, even me. As you can see in the audience in this video, the fans are so happy and thrilled. I feel that way now.

I’ve been a huge fan of Brock Lesnar ever since his WWE days. Then I started watching UFC, when he moved over to that company for a while. I don’t watch UFC anymore ’cause Lesnar no longer works for them. Yep, huge Lesnar fan, I am. He’s an inspiring guy. I just admire his don’t give a fuck attitude. He’s the real deal.

Brock and Vince must of buried the hatchet, ’cause I remember they had a public feud after Brock left WWE.

Enjoy this video before WWE pulls it from youtube.

BREAKING NEWS: Brock Lesnar officially returns to WWE…

I just watched RAW tonight and Brock Lesnar just made his official return. Lesnar showed up at the very end of RAW tonight. See his photo, here.

No matter what you think of Lesnar, WWE is his home. He belongs in professional wrestling. I think he finally realized it if he agreed to return. It was WWE that helped make Brock a big name star, and icon. Without WWE, he wouldn’t have made it in UFC at all. I’m sure of it.

Look like Lesnar is going to feud with John Cena. Hopefully Lesnar will finish the feud with the Undertaker, so it can be Brock Lesnar vs. Undertaker for “Wrestlemania 29”.

Lesnar came back with his own theme and he used his signature move, the F5, on Cena. He didn’t use the the F5 move in UFC at all ’cause it’s a trademarked finisher owned by WWE.

Who knows how long Brock will stay around WWE for. I’m just glad he’s finally back for another run.

What’s next for Brock Lesnar’s career? I can think of 5 possibilities…

Brock Lesnar’s sudden retirement from UFC certainly got all the fans talking on what he’s going to do next in his professional career. The question we’re all wondering is, what is he planning to do next?

I can think of 5 possibilities…

  • WWE return – This is the most talked about, of course. As soon as he announced his retirement, a WWE return for Brock is all over the place online.
  • To be an author full time – His first memoir, “Deathclutch” was a success. I haven’t read his book yet but I’m meaning to read it soon. He could write books full time for a living.
  • Start an acting career for TV/Movies – UFC great, Randy Couture is already an actor, he has been for a long while. If Randy could be a successful actor out of UFC, so can Brock. Could Brock be a great action movie star? I can see it, yes.
  • Continue to work for UFC as interviewer or color commentator for fights or maybe become a trainer and manager for other fighters – I can definitely see Dana finding extra work for Brock if he chooses to continue to stay at UFC even if he won’t fight.
  • Retire from everything for good and just enjoy life with family – He could also not work at all and just enjoy the time for his family. He seems to love and care for his family too much. I’m sure he is already rich and loaded enough from his past WWE career (which I’m sure he still gets paychecks from) and UFC. So Brock will get by fine even if he won’t get work.

That’s all I can think of. Don’t get your hopes up on a WWE return, he could choose to do something else.

Thought: Did Sable talk Brock into retiring????

Brock Lesnar, said he retired ’cause he made a promise to his family that he’ll hang it up if he lost his fight against Overeem last night. When Brock made the not so surprising announcement last night, I kept thinking that Brock and Sable must have had an argument about Brock continuing to fight even though he has health problems. If it wasn’t for Sable, I’m pretty sure, Brock would have kept his career going, because MMA and caged fighting is Brock’s passion. He gave it up ’cause his family wanted it.

Brock retiring wasn’t Dana White’s decision, it was all Brock’s himself. Dana would probably let him keep going if he wanted to.

So all this, tells me that Sable (Rena Mero), must of been extremely worried about Brock continuing to fight, so she talked him into retiring and begged him to stop. When Brock was out there, last night, he didn’t look very good. Something says about him that he isn’t really a 100% that he claimed.

Brock calling it quits was probably a smart move. If he kept going, he could get killed out in the Octagon.

Everyone is already wondering what’s next for Brock if he’ll go back to WWE or do other things in his career. Maybe he’ll do some acting in movies or he could continue to write books. He’ll find himself a new job ’cause he needs the money to take care of his family. It’ll be interesting to see what Brock is planning to do next.

If he goes to WWE full time, he’ll be away from his family a lot more, so I don’t think he’ll go for a full time run. Maybe a part time run.

Brock Lesnar ends UFC career after losing to Overeem last night. What’s next for Lesnar? WWE Return???

I haven’t been watching UFC for a long while ’cause I’ve been cutting back on PPV’s, but I ended up watching last night’s UFC 141, ’cause I can’t miss the Brock Lesnar fights. The Lesnar vs. Overeem fight was a quick one like I expected. I was rooting for Overeem to win it in one round and my prediction was right. I knew Brock wouldn’t be able to handle him due to his sickness and Overeem having more fighting experience than Brock.

Right after the fight, Lesnar announced he is done with UFC. He maybe done with the fighting part of it but will he still work for UFC? Could Lesnar become an interviewer or a color commentator? Or will he quit UFC for good???

Lesnar’s UFC run was very brief. He only had 8 fights. I’m sure he’ll walk out UFC a happy man anyway ’cause he was a Heavyweight Champion and he got the opportunity to fight UFC legend, Randy Couture, so that’s good enough for him.

I like Brock Lesnar, he’s an interesting guy and entertaining as hell. Could he be on his way back to the WWE in the future? Lesnar said he would consider a WWE return if something happened to his UFC career, and I’m sure WWE will try to talk him into re-signing with them, so anything is possible. Hopefully Lesnar returns sometime before Wrestlemania 28, so there can be a Lesnar vs. Undertaker match.

I will start watching WWE again if Brock decides to return. Brock is featured in the new “WWE 12” video game, so that’s a hint that Brock could be on his way back.

Last night’s UFC was a good PPV though, the other fights were good too.

Thought: Another Brock Lesnar in WWE thought…

Since Vince McMahon is doing business with Dana White that he got Brock Lesnar as a playable character for “WWE 12” video game, there could be more projects with Lesnar for the WWE. Maybe a DVD of Brock Lesnar’s WWE career is coming up ahead and things like that. So this means that Vince and Brock are already on good terms. It just proves that Vince still likes Brock Lesnar after all these years despite that fallen out they had in the past.

Vince wants Brock back in WWE, it’s just that Dana doesn’t want to mess up Brock’s UFC career, understandably. Who knows, maybe Dana will allow Brock to make occasional WWE appearances, and not a full time run. Like they all say, anything is possible with the WWE.

Thought: Speaking of Brock Lesnar in WWE, who would he feud with???

The reason that Brock Lesnar returning to WWE rumors started back up again is because of this Undertaker & Lesnar stare down that happened at UFC 121 last year, remember that? Now that Lesnar says there is a definite possibility of him returning to the WWE through the IGN.com interview, now there are talks of who is Lesnar going to feud with when he returns.

Will it be against the Undertaker? Probably, yes.

I would also think that Lesnar would be feuding with who ever has the WWE Title. Brock would want to go for another title run in WWE if he comes back.

Seriously though, in answer to the question on who I would like to see Lesnar feud with in WWE… here is my top 5 list…

  1. Undertaker – Of course, he would be my first pick. I’d like to see a closure to this feud myself and it should happen at Wrestlemania.
  2. Vince McMahon – Vince and Brock had a real life feud out of WWE, which is one of the reasons why Brock left. Could they bring it into a storyline? Yes, I can see it happening. I think a Vince and Brock feud would be pretty entertaining.
  3. Randy Orton – Here is one guy that Lesnar never had a feud with before in WWE. I could see it happen easily. If Randy is WWE Champion at the time Lesnar is back, I can see Lesnar go after him for the title.
  4. CM Punk – Another guy that Lesnar never feuded with before. I can see these guys putting on a great wrestling match on a ppv.
  5. Mark Henry – Mark Henry is the big 500 lb. guy known as the “World’s Strongest Man”. While I don’t really enjoy two big guys feuding against each other, I would enjoy this one if this ever happened.
Lesnar returning would be good, ’cause I think this is what the WWE needs. Like Lesnar or not, he creates a lot of attention in the media. I’m sure Lesnar coming back would also bring Paul Heyman back as Lesnar’s storyline manager.
My question is would Lesnar be a heel or a babyface in WWE when he returns? If he does, that is. I would prefer him being a heel, but the fans are going to be happy to see him back, they’ll be cheering for him like crazy, so he’s probably gonna be a babyface anyway.

Report: Brock Lesnar finally reveals if he will ever return to WWE or not…

IGN.com did an interview with Brock Lesnar since he was included as a playable character for WWE’s “12” video game, and he was asked if he’ll ever return to WWE in the future.

Lesnar said:

“It would have to be under the right circumstances. I don’t know if Mr. McMahon and I could come to the right circumstances. If it was good for me and good for him I think that we could do something. At the end of the day, my life, my character and my profession – I take them very seriously. At the end of the day, if it doesn’t help me or my family out, and it doesn’t make sense for me to do, then I don’t do it. Everything would have to fall in the right place, but would I consider it? Absolutely.” 

More on it, here.

I think it could be possible that Brock could make a WWE return in the future too. Just give it time, if Lesnar keeps losing UFC fights and if Dana puts his UFC career to an end, I’m sure he’ll want to return to WWE then.

Vince and Brock may not be in good terms now, but they can always re-negotiate.
