With the exception of that match with Goldberg, Brock has given 110% in every match he's ever wrestled. If he went back to UFC, but wanted to have one match a year (at Mania) where he kind of took the Undertaker's spot, I'd be all for it. Hell, ONE match per year would probably be the kind of thing the UFC "powers that be" would agree to if it meant having Lesnar back. After the disrespect he got from fans, I don't totally blame him for that. He clearly showed up intending to do the right thing.

Aren't we going to get a similar thing to the Lesnar/Goldberg match if WM31 is really his last WWE match? Lesnar's contract is the most discussed in wrestling, everyone seems to know when and where he is arriving and leaving. The crowd are going to crap all over Reigns taking the title from him.... if Reigns is the one, after all.

He'll go back to the UFC........and he's taking the WWE Championship WITH HIM!!!! I do not like that idea because someone should get the benefit of beating him on screen but if that led to them resplitting the belts I could get behind it.

I was making light of them completely screwing up the Summer of Punk 2011.

What is going to happen if he goes back to the UFC?
He would get MURKED by any of the top heavyweights - and not only because of his stomach. The man has NO chin to be fighting in the UFC. Sure, he's a beast of a man, and extremely strong and powerful, and versatile, and quick - but any and all of his loses have shown that the minute he gets punched in the face, he balls up and takes it until the ref stops it.
Cain Velasquez would absolutely MURDER him, no doubt about it. Same for Junior Dos Santos. The list goes on.... Financially it might be a good idea for him, but considering all it would do is completely tarnish his reputation (at least I'm on that thinking-train), he should stay far away from a world where you have to get punched in the head for a living.

He couldn't compete with those two guys, and probably Verdum, but the heavyweight division is weak and I think he could have plenty of exciting and competitive fights with others. And it doesn't really matter if he loses, he'd be a huge draw. If he comes in and loses 3 fights, UFC (and Lesnar) will make a boatload, as long as he doesn't look too terrible. I for one would gladly shell out $ to see Lesnar v. Roy Nelson, or Stephen Struve, or Ben Rothwell. Or bring in Bobby Lashley. Or throw other old washed up guys at him like Frank Mir or Big Nog. The UFC doesn't typically like to do those kinds of fights, but for Brock, I think they'd make an exception.

Let's not totally knock Lesnar - he took Shane Carwin beating on him for half a round and submitted him the following round. He doesn't like getting hit but he isn't a glass jaw. Having said that, who actually likes getting hit in the heavyweight division? Nelson and Hunt are probably the two freakiest when it comes to taking damage but I doubt they enjoy it.

As others have said, it's always going to be about whether or not it makes financial sense for both WWE and Brock Lesnar.
That's the reason why the saying "Never say never" is so true despite how cliché it sounds nowadays.
