- The Wrestling Observer has a new update on the latest chapter of the still unresolved drama between WWE world champion Brock Lesnar and Vince McMahon. As of now Lesnar is still advertised to appear at next week’s Raw in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

According to the report, Lesnar is expected by the WWE to appear. WWE officials are planning around the idea he will appear and be used for the show. Despite the recent issues, backstage officials still expect Lesnar to sign a new contract with the WWE after it is set to expire after WrestleMania 31. What UFC is willing to offer Lesnar and what WWE offers him in response could depend on how that will play out.

Lesnar’s recent appearance at UFC 184 was seen as a power play and a message to WWE and Vince McMahon by Lesnar. Per the report, Lesnar was WWE to take his name, value and worth seriously, since UFC and Bellator MMA are both interested in signing him. Of course, if Lesnar misses any further appearances ahead of WrestleMania, it could hurt his leverage at the negotiating table for a new deal and cause him some potential legal issues.

If Roman Reigns goes over Brock the value in Brock as a pro wrestler is over.

My gut feeling is telling me Lesnar retains and stays with the company. Maybe that's just because that's what I want to see.

And I don't mean he's worthless. I mean... He's not worth $2M as a special attraction. He's worth, maybe, half that. Because fans will largely feel he's served his role. You'd need to spend a full year re-establishing him and frankly unless he goes over Reigns I'm not sure how you do that.

That's not going to happen, unless Lesnar is under a deal that ensures he competes at every PPV, or every other PPV at that.

after wm 31 he can fuck off for all I care.

Why do I have a very strong feeling that this is BS, that Lesnar is done with WWE after WM (or the RAW after, whatever) and they're just putting these articles out there so that the ending to Roman vs Lesnar doesn't seem predictable as fuck?

Well anything is possible.

I just look at it this way:

>It's been announced for like, ever, that Lesnar is done with WWE after WM. 
>Roman vs Lesnar is made the main event, amidst much controversy.
>WWE knows it's very predictable to have Roman win, seeing as Lesnar is going to leave after WM.
>They don't want the fans to shit on the match since they don't like one guy and know the other guy is leaving the night after. 
>Suddenly articles come out saying that Lesnar might resign, and thus, retain his title at WM. 

I find this all insanely hard to believe.

Well Brock is going to do what he can to get the best offer he could. People know UFC needs a big money draw.

WWE might want to try get a rematch from Brock. But it's probably not worth it.

I'm not saying that there is no chance Brock is going to re-sign, he could totally sign a new contract. But Roman is obviously going to win at WM, and this is a ploy to make it seem like more of a surprise. It's sad that I'm the only one that notices that, apparently, when it's as obvious as it is.

I really just don't care about Brock Lesner tbh

I just posted that on Reddit, Razor.
