It's possible the UFC deal isn't set in stone. I don't really know how UFC contracts work. It sounded like a done deal, but it's possible that Brock has pulled out because they want other Cormier fights or whatever. I heard that Cormier has an injured hand or something and people don't give him much chance against Lewis. It might be a touch-and-go sort of thing. Brock is probably preparing, but who knows?
And it may not matter to Vince if Brock is Universal Champion and does UFC and gets his ass kicked. I have this feeling that he sees them as different mediums. A Brock win would not surprise me. He did more for the belt than any other champion.
Right now, I also wouldn't be shocked if they dropped the Universal Title completely and just had AJ Styles appear on both shows. I wouldn't expect that to happen, but WWE is in an odd place where they don't perceive themselves to have "a guy."
