Brock Lesnar is the smartest man in pro wrestling right next to Matt Hardy and AJ Styles. He is the guy working his own contract exactly how he chooses to and gets paid a S*** ton to do so. WWE paid Brock Lesnar 5 million dollars to sign for two years and now suddenly the two years comes to an end the night after Wrestlemania. WWE is up the creek and Brock is standing watching while he snaps the oar over his knee.
In the last two weeks it became common knowledge that Brock and Vince argued backstage to the point where people were concerned for Vince. No one really knows what the argument was a bout and if someone claims to know please ignore them. Many have said it was about money while others say it was Roman Reigns failing a drug test. BROCK DOESN'T CARE and why should he? He knows he is the money. Vince may as well follow this guy with his wallet and just pay for everything for him. Brock Lesnar is in the main event of Wrestlemania against who we all believe to be the next golden poster boy of the company Roman Reigns. Now if you were Brock Lesnar and you knew you could be leaving the night after Reigns possibly beats you what is the first thing you do? You prove your worth.
Last week Brock Lesnar did just that by proving he is still a name that every household can recognize by showing up to a UFC PPV and was seen on camera talking to Dana White. Is this not just the best bargaining chip? Brock just guaranteed that WWE would up their offer. Not to mention the fact that if fans see him doing this then they are going to start their own rumors and cause a fuss. All Brock needs now is to receive offers from UFC and Bellator and he has Vince's grapefruits in hand.
Brock Lesnar could easily leave WWE and have a more than comfortable life. But he won't. Many behind the scenes still believe that Brock will re-sign with WWE and that he will continue to have the same kind of schedule he is currently on. This is not a bad thing. I can already hear fans moaning on twitter but what if, what if Brock re-signs and beats Reigns to retain at mania? What option do you prefer then? Reigns as champ, a champ who a lot of you believe is undeserving and green or a champ who is rarely there? I know what I prefer from those two options. But there is a third option. What if the whole thing is a work by HHH, Brock and Paul Heyman? Wouldn't it get fans behind Reigns if Brock threatens to leave with the belt that he rarely shows up with anyway? Imagine Brock left and goes to UFC for a year but upon returning to UFC programming he does a Madusa and trashes the belt and denounces the WWE as garbage.
*note for this to work Vince needs to agree to Brocks terms of working for both UFC and WWE and Reigns would have to lose at Wrestlemania*
Brock would go between the two shows like he said and you can have him constantly belittle the show until one day Reigns shows up at a UFC event and gets in Brock's face. He challenges Brock to a Hell In A Cell match at Wrestlemania 32. Year long build and the fans get behind Reigns for defending WWE.
It's along shot but this could all be storyline for all we know. But what we do know is that Brock has set himself up as the most dominant wrestler on WWE's roster and he certainly the most coveted star right next to John Cena and Sting. Follow my blog with Bloglovin
