Lesnar wants to come back

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

Brock Lesnar was recently quoted in the "Bismark Tribune" as saying he would like to settle his current lawsuit and return to WWE.

"I'm ready for it now. With the lawsuit and everything going on, I just hope we can resolve this thing, and Vince can open his doors to me and just give me a second chance. I have no idea (where it stands). I guess it stands on the end of your pencil, when it gets out on the internet. That's probably where he'll catch the news. It's either that or me calling him. But I don't know what else I'd be. What else is there for me?" Lesnar continued, "I wasn't ready for what (WWE) put on my plate. I couldn't eat it all. I tried to, you know. That's just me being me. He asked me, `Are you ready for this?' and I just said, `Bring it on. Let's go.' I wasn't ready to be traveling 300 days a year. I wasn't ready for the money. I wasn't ready for the responsibilities. I wasn't ready to be a father. I wasn't ready to be a husband. I wasn't ready for a lot of things. I had a lot of growing up to do. I was forced to grow up."

Lesnar offered many other pretty complimentary comments toward McMahon in quotes that didn't get used in the story itself, talking about McMahon giving him his big break, written at BismarkTribune.com

[Mr. JL]

Meh

[SuperSlim]

wonder where this winds up

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

I think if he wanted to come back, he kinda blew it by suing them(or trying to anyway)!

[LK]

I'm cool with him coming back. He was good at what he did and was always improving. As long as he isn't thrown straight back into the main event, I'm fine with him returning.

[The One]

Lesnar is like the penny you find in the street, yeah if you bend al the way down to pick it up you have a penny, but is it really worth the effort?

[SammyG]

He should start a feud with Matt Morgan, the battle of the F-5's

[PureHatred]

I really liked Brock, but is he really worth all the trouble?

[Eunos]

Vince has taken back guys for doing worse :shrug:

I personally would love to see Lesner Return.

[6to1]

if vince hires him back he might make him join the kiss vinces ass club.

[Hired Hitman]

He probably knows he will lose.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I would be happy to see him return. The WWE needs as many credible guys as they can get.

Personally, I would like to see him come back to SD!, where he is interrupted by Chris Benoit, who talks down Lesnar saying he walke dout on the posrt Benoit lives for. Have Chris pour his heart out, telling him how Lesnar did in a year what Benoit still hasn't done in a lifetime. Have Benoit say he chose to go to RAW in 2004, after he won the Royal Rumble, because he respected Lesnar enough to let him continue to develop as a wrestler. Brock wasn't even in his prime, and Benoit didn't want to face a rookie, he wanted to face Brock Lesnar in his prime. But then Lesnar betrayed Chris, and walked out. Now he walks back in and thinks there won't be Hell to pay for leaving? Benoit says he will make Lesnar squeal, and make him wish he never returned to the WWE.

The two have a PPV match, which Benoit wins with a Crippler Crossface. Benoit wins the match head and shoulders above Lesnar, but Brock put up a great 20-minute fight. As soon as Benoit wins the match, he goes over and shakes Lesnar's hand, and gives him a hug, showing us that Lesnar has re-earned his place in the WWE. Benoit becomes the lead face on SD!, while Lesnar slowly rebuils himself.

[The Naitch]

or Lesnar joins Mexicool and becomes their new landscaping boss

[Shadow]

I'm with the Naitch on that.

[M. Banana]

Personally, I'd love to see him come back to SmackDown! and feud with Orton.

Because Orton took his place as the youngest champion.

meh

[Batsu]

LOL, yeah, even though I wasn't as huge on Lesnar... I wouldn't mind seeing him on SmacKDown, provided they don't shoot him to the moon like they did before. Just don't put him on Raw...

[Gouda]

Brock said the "i" word.

[Nark Order]

Hell, Vince hired Bischoff...

Wouldn't be surprised if he came back.

[The CyNick]

There are lots of ways to go with him.

Batista-Lesnar is a natural match up physically.

Orton-Lesnar could work

Lesnar would make a great upgrade for a guy like Carlito or Christian as a bodygurad.

Lesnar-Cena would also work playing off their history.

It'll be interesting to see how they handle him when he comes back. Will they try to make a lot of money, or try to prove a point.

[Gouda]

And....

Lesnar vs. Holly!! :shifty:

[Bischoff187]

Yeah, this is posrts entertainment, where anything can happen!

That is one match I have always wanted to see.

[Mayo]

I think if he wanted to come back, he kinda blew it by suing them(or trying to anyway)!Sable did the same thing and Vince ended up bringing her back, even with her lack of talent and all.

[Corkscrewed]

Well, at least this time, he said the right things. But "wasn't ready for the money" had me :lol:


I dunno... if he's changed, I might be willing to give him a second chance, but how much of this is just an act, and how long before he reverts to being a cocky ass if he does come back?

[FourFifty]

wonder where this winds up

Hopefully right by Jeff Jarrett's WWE return.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I wouldn't put Lesnar on RAW. That'd just be overkill, IMO. They've already got Batista and Cena as top faces, let Lesnar sort of balance things out on SmackDown!.

Lesnar vs. Batista is something they can do in the near-future, but I think they could build them up on seperate brands. People will automatically associate the two with each other, seeing as they would be in similiar positions, have similiar body-builds, etc.

[FourFifty]

And....

Lesnar vs. Holly!! :shifty:


Yay! I have a new reason to kill myself!

[Crashnburn]

He should start a feud with Matt Morgan, the battle of the F-5's

Matt Morgan should go back to using the Vert Suplex/Rock Bottom move he was doing. That was a lot more impressive than his version of the F-5.

Everybody that I've seen rip off the F-5 does not do the move as well as Lesnar IMO.

[Team Sheep]

And....

Lesnar vs. Holly!! :shifty:

WTF were WWE smoking to think that would boost PPV buy rates

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Are you guys fucking retarded? "Don't push him to the moon" he was a main eventer, and will remain that way assheads.

[Just John]

If he came back as a decent mid-carder that'd be cool with me

[FourFifty]

If he came back <strike>as a decent mid-carder that'd be cool with me</strike> Always450 would kill himself

[Lotus]

For those of us who haven't kept in touch with the wrestling world for quite some time (i.e., me), could someone be so kind as to explain what happened with Brock Lesnar and Vince McMahon?

[PureHatred]

Anyways, the best possible outcome of this would be for Lesnar to return to Smackdown. It's where he made his biggest impact, thet desperately need the star power, and if Batista gets drafted to SD then you get the 'dream match' that you could spend months building aroundo, which Smackdown needs since threy just lost their two biggest draws.

Also, since SD has the reputation of having the better locker room, him being an ass probably won't matter as much.

[Chavo Classic]

For those of us who haven't kept in touch with the wrestling world for quite some time (i.e., me), could someone be so kind as to explain what happened with Brock Lesnar and Vince McMahon?

Basically, Brock got tired of the travelling and the schedules. He was frustrated that he couldn't work out in the gym as much and that he was being pushed too fast and too hard. If they hadn't had pushed him so hard, he probably wouldn't have left so early. It's just that when you've already been WWE champion, what is there left for you to do? I think also that Brock get cocky, thought he was bigger than the company and walked out. He gave his notice right before Wrestlemania 20 and basically shat on the program with Goldberg which the writers had spent months building up.

Now, Vince doesn't like being shat on especially by his own prodiges. So he wasn't very happy with Brock especially when he contested the no compete clause in the release he signed. Even though Brock agreed to the clause and signed, he showed up at a few events in Japan (i'm not really up to scratch with my Japanese wrestling knowledge, so i won't pretend to know when and where this was). Naturally, this led to legal battles and ranglings, with Brock suing the WWE for taking away his livelihood (only because he failed miserably to make a living in the NFL and was too arrogant to try the CFL and European league) and Vince suing Brock back. In other words, Brock spat his dummy out and now Vince has him by the balls.

Smackdown needs a star like Brock right now. Even if he's not in the main event picture, having his name on the marquee would certainly grab some attention.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Brock is a main eventer. After the way he was built, do you fucking think he's going to be working with Orlando Jordan? Give me a fucking break.

Brock can be a main event draw, why waste it feuding with Mid Carders, when he's in his mid 20s and still has years of drawing left in his tank. Some of you guys are such internet marks, it's pathetic.

Hey, Brock in the main event is okay with me. But it wouldn't sit well with the locker room if he walked back into the same position he was when he left. You gotta pay your dues, and he sure as hell didn't pay them first time round, so he'll have to if he came back.

Vince's opinions might be a bit more difficult to predict. He must feel let down by Brock and perhaps even some anamosity towards him, but we all know Vince would do just about anything to be successful. I'm sure taking an ego hit in order to revive Smackdown by brining by Lesnar would not be too much to ask.

[Loose Cannon]

No, you don't have to pay your dues. Not if you can draw. I know a lot of you guys get hung up on the respect thing, but the WWE is a business and if someone can make Vince money, then why should he have to be put in a position where he can't, just so he can "pay his dues?" Makes no sense from a WWE perspective.

Yea, if this was some indy fed which has no TV deal and isn't a multi-million dollar company, then it may fly, but not in the WWE.

I agree with Newstead.

[Chavo Classic]

Like I said, if I was in that locker room I'd want to see Brock pay his dues. But Vince might see it another way - he's obviously going to want what is best for business. After all, a bit of backstage hostility towards Brock (for going straight back into the main event picture) is a small price to pay for making Smackdown strong again.

ok

It's still absolutely pointless to have him be in the mid-card.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

No I really think Brock should be jobbing to Danny Basham...because that would be awesome for business.

[PureHatred]

Well, let's be real. Vince does not always do what's 'best for business.'

Just look at the entire Invasion angle and the way he went out of his way to bury any former WCW stars (and turned the whole thing into another chapter of Mcmahon Family Feud) when he could've treated them like legitimate threats and made huge money.

So it wouldn't be entirely surprising to see Brock come back and spend months getting jobbed to everyone in the locker room as a way to teach him a lesson.

Stupid. But not surprising.

I know where you're coming from, but if you're a member of that lockerroom, what are you going to do? Quit? Risk your ass against Lesnar in a fight?

Sure you may be pissed off, but I doubt that will cause a lockerroom revolution, especially with the WWE's "main eventers are all that matter" policy.

[Gerard]

lesner is a tist socuking fag/. He cant fight for shit, my fada beast hiom up like never berorf and thnik so .


Yeha pass the bong in the opposite direction kiddo you've obviously had enough for one night. :wtf:

Anyway yeah lesnar should come back, get made a member of the Vince McMahon kiss my ass club, then fired immediately after. :yes:

[Mr. Nerfect]

Lesnar really should be in the main event scene if he returned. It makes no sense for him not to be. The guy has already lost a lot since his debut in the WWE. He lost at WrestleMania, which means he has no hope of being undefeated at WrestleMania. He may have won the WWE Championship three-times, but he's also lost it thrice as well. He lost it once to The Big Show, who has been a generic face since then, once to Angle, who had been replaced as top heel by JBL, and he's lost it once to Eddie Guerrero, who's been putting over Rey Mysterio at every turn in the last few months. His record as youngest ever World Champion has been overwritten by Randy Orton, although he is still the youngest ever WWE Champion.

Brock Lesnar has already "paid his dues", and if he comes back there is no doubt in my mind he should main event. Maybe have him lose to Chris Benoit or Shawn Michaels in his PPV re-debut, as a way to "re-initiate" him, but then let him be Brock Lesnar.

[Batsu]

Are you guys fucking retarded? "Don't push him to the moon" he was a main eventer, and will remain that way assheads.

A main-eventer that was shoved down our throats way too quickly. This was probably one of the main reasons, Brock was burned out and left WWE among others. He doesn't have to job out to the likes of, I dunno, Doug Basham, but I wouldn't shove him directly in the title picture, but near it, at first. For example, if he goes to SmackDown, he should have a feud with Matt Morgan, if, for anything, using the F-5 in his absence. Then he can go on to JBL, or whoever's up there with the belt. But if you throw him right at the belt, or the top guy, it could be a case of Scott Steiner all over again.

Exactly. Keep him in or around the main event scene, but don't have him return and win the Championship right off the bat.

Why thank you, kind sir. :y:

[The CyNick]

Ive always thought paying your dues is stupid concept in wrestling.

Make money, thats all you should worry about. Screw the other petty shit.

Anyway, if they really want to "punish" Lesnar, do it after you make the money.

Build back Lesnar as unstoppable, maybe even play off the NFL stuff by having him say he's above everyone in wrestling, he's a real athlete, but still have him dominate.

Do that for 4-6 months, and then build up a program with either Cena or Batista and count the money as it rolls in. Of course have Cena or Batista win, and then, if they really want to punish Lesnar have him do a bunch of JOBs.
