Vince seriously needs to call Brock and thank him for all the free publicity Lesnar is getting for the WWE. In the past 2 days, I've heard the WWE's name dropped in mainstream sports outlets more than I've heard in a good while. What Brock did and said after his fight was "something we'd see in the WWE." People are bringing up the WWE & UFC names together, comparing pro wrestling & MMA. While it does less than s*** for UFC, I feel it's great for the WWE. I sat and watched Lesnar own Mir and cut the most entertaining post-fight interview I've ever heard. If some MMA fans that haven't gotten into pro wrestling saw that and found it as awesome as I did, they might give pro wrestling a shot. It's been good to hear the WWE's name mentioned in sports media and not have it be followed by negativity. I've been waiting for somebody to make this post. I know everybody here hates Lesnar, but he's doing wrestling fans a huge favor right now. I still find it ridiculously ironic that UFC 100 may go down as one of the most important nights in the history of mixed martial arts, and it's because a former pro wrestler invoked professional wrestling's trade. |

Brock's post-match promo after defeating Mir was his best heel promo of his career, UFC or otherwise. I tip my hat to him for that.

Not to mention Brock brought pro wrestling flair and mentality into that promo after his match. He became THE heel in the UFC and now people will pay to see a) him get beat and b) who his next opponents will be. It was brilliant of him to cut that promo. I agree with this. I loved his promo. |
