Right now on some cable TV systems in the US, WWE is taking advantage of the UFC 116 hype by offering various Brock Lesnar matches for $1.99 each:

• vs Rob Van Dam (King of the Ring 2002) - In the finals of the last King of the Ring tournament to have its own PPV event, Lesnar wins a title shot against The Rock at Summerslam.
• vs Big Show (WWE Championship match from Smackdown 6/12/03) - They have their usual good match, ending with the famous ring-breaking superplex.
• vs Goldberg (Wrestlemania XX) - Infamously bad match known for the crowd (including Shane McMahon) turning on it.
• vs Eddy Guerrero (WWE Championship match from No Way Out 2004) - Great, now legendary match where Eddy wins the WWE Championship in front of a hot crowd in San Francisco.
• vs Kurt Angle (WWE Championship match from Wrestlemania XIX) - Angle wrestles with a broken neck, takes some crazy bumps, and goes into shock after the match.  Lesnar does a shooting star press for the first time in over a year and lands on his head. 
• vs Rey Mysterio (Smackdown 12/11/03) - Excellent match featuring one of the few appearances of the Brock Lock (AKA the Stretch Muffler), which I hope he tries to use on Carwin tonight.
• vs John Cena & vs Randy Orton (Smackdown 9/02) - Brock takes on WWE's biggest current stars early in their careers.
• vs Ric Flair (Raw 7/1/02) - The sort of goofy fun that Flair delivered with a quality opponent in his later years.
• vs The Rock (WWE Championship match from Summerslam 2002) - Great match where Brock wins his first WWE Championship.
• vs The Undertaker (Biker Chain Match for the WWE Championship from No Mercy 2003) - Long brawl where the chain is on a pole.
