he made the right descision from my view, because i'm just glad he's gone. i never could stand the guy. i would nominate him for the worlds least deserving and least exciting world champion.

I think he made the right decision for the sole reason that he didn't want to be there. If you don't want to be there, then leave. That's not being negative or anything, but it's not like the guy was going to sit around unemployed or whatever. It's not like he needed the job, so why do something you don't want to do? He had plenty of options to make a successful living with less travel. |

He wanted to pursue his dream of becoming a Football player and I can totally understand why he left. But, I think he would've become a huge star had he stayed.

I never really understood the hate the guy gets for leaving. People in the regular job market do it ever day. Don't see why this is so different.

He had a tiny head and was kind of a tool. I understand he has his fans, but I couldn't stand to look at him.

Several guys killed themselves to make him look like a million bucks. He also got the rub from many top guys, Undertaker, Hogan, Angle, Rocky, etc.. A huge push that would've been a better investment for a guy who actually stayed with the company for a while. That said, I was a mark for Brock back when Heyman was managing him. He was also very good in the ring and the F5 is one of the best finishers of the modern era. |

It's the same reason people complain about The Rock "selling out". Their arguements usually stem from the fact that they feel he owes the WWE and it's fans something more. Yeah, I don't get it either. And as for Brock, good for him. I don't blame him for wanting to leave and follow other ventures. Honestly the last thing we need is a disgruntled wrestler phoning it in every night because he just doesn't care anymore. |

I really don't see how thats much different than a "real job" stepping up for you, spending the time, money and resources to interview you and hire you and whatnot, only to leave for antoher job. |

I think it's the fact that the WWE spent a lot of time building up his name to be the next big star. But now he is using that to essentially help himself and the competition in the UFC. |

Given the ridiculous profits that the WWE makes and their absolute refusal to give their wrestlers the benefit of a union and pay that actually reflects said profits, wrestlers do not owe the WWE shit.

Im not saying I think he made a bad decision, but I think people in the WWE can use that as a reason to why they feel his decision was wrong. |

Brock made WWE money, WWE made Brock money. Then they stopped.
Capitalism is all about buying low and selling high. Brock got out of the business while his stock was still high.

If he had different plans for his future, he made the right choice, simply because Lesnar was dull enough when he was "into" it, I can't imagine the horror of watching more "Bored Lesnar" matches.
On the other hand, seeing how things have evolved, I can't help but thinking Lesnar flushed down the toilet a huge chance by leaving WWE.
Brock would have probably been the Top Guy for a long time, basically taking Batista's spot...
I never liked him, and I've always found him rather boring (IMO Batista is better), but he was a good monster.

As much as I love Brock, it was lame of him to leave. Just think, if he hadn't left, JBL, Mark Henry, Khali, Cena and Batista may not be as pushed as they are now.

He made the right decision because it's what he wanted to do, period. People make decisions for themselves, he did what made him happy, and therefore he made the correct decision.
