Lesnar left WWE after being on the road and having the responsibility of carrying the company. Perhaps he’s exhausted from having to do the same with UFC. One thing is certain, when you have a child and a wife and your last two fights took a heavy toll on you, one might reconsider the future. Would Lesnar work a Taker-like WWE schedule? Rumble-mania then off the summer, Summerslam-Survivor Series then off until Rumble again? I think he would and he would make crazy amounts of money being that he’s drawn million dollar buys outside of WWE.

WWE needs a huge star and Lesnar can headline with Cena, Batista, HHH, Taker, Miz, Edge, Jericho, Goldberg(done right) and draw tons of ppv buys over the next two years. That could fetch Lesnar a contract worth more than 6-7 million as a base from WWE. I’m not sure if UFC will match that for 2-3 fights a year.

This cold get very interesting considering Lesnar only has 1 fight left on that contract and WWE could buy that out if Dana decides to let him go.

I want to fuss about Lesnar and his lack of…effort to get back into the cage and fix the holes in his game, but I just can’t be mad at a guy who can make money like Lesnar does. He might not be the mastermind behind it, but the dude knows how to get paid.

I do hope that this is just Lesnar angling for more money from the UFC, certainly he knows that he can manhandle at LEAST 80% of the HW division…and if he can get paid for fighting someone who won’t crush him like Cain did, then he’ll certainly stick with it. With the recent changes in the Schaub/Mir fight, one wonders if Lesnar decided to go for the rubber match with Mir, thinking he’ll take little damage once again.
