This whole Lesner thing do you think it's a work?
Personally i think that the whole thing stinks of a work, here's why.

Firstly this whole Pete Rose inducted into the WWe hall of fame, this was a quite blatant publicity stunt to get some media interest in Mania 20 and also a way to get baseball fans to get a slight interest in Mania.

The secind thing that i've noticed is that Lesner (from what i've read) is a real kiss ass to Vince. I find it hard to believe that a man who was kissing ass just 4 weeks ago has decided to quit.

Plus this is the man who has been quite vocal about the internet and his dislike of it, with the leaking of news and such like. This whole thing could have been created to make us (the internet fans) question what will happen in the Goldberg/Lesner match as it's hard to predict which guy is gonna go over as both men are leaving after.

Brock has been given everything on a plate since he entered to the WWe a little under 2 years ago, he was pushed to the moon and Vince has always had a hard on for the big guys and i'm sure that Vince would have been protecting Brock since day 1. Plus Brock obviously has a passion for the buisiness. Jesus Christ this is the guy who had a propeller from a boat tear a chunk out of his calf and he still showed up on Smackdown the next week.

Infact, one of the quotes that he's suposed to have some out with is that he want to be able to walk when he's 40. Well correct me if i'm wrong but being in the NFL isn't a million miles away from being a wrestler as far as injuries go.

OK that's my rant over, i'm sorry to bring up yet another Brock Post, i just wanted to get that across.

Said no, he's clearly not satisfied. He's said so on a lot of occasions regarding a lot of things.

I am so confused right now. Now with the whole Goldberg is staying sitiuation, I just don't know what to think. If this is a swerve on all of us, then props to the WWE.

I think he's going, but not permanantly. He'll be back by the end of the year at least. They could play it off as some sort of injury.

I think it is definitly legit. I don't think he would slag off the bookers unless it was all real.

Plus the booking has been shit. And what with you know you holding people down, (albeit on a different show) Brock's chances of going onto better things are limited.

Sable's leaving, everyone's upset and we don't know who is going to win the match at Mania between him and Goldberg

If its a work, Vince has lost his mind again.

When you work the boys, you lose their respect and nobody can trust management. That would turn the WWE into WCW, and we all know where that led.

You also have to consider that this is really only an internet story, okay it did get picked up by Fox Sports, but basically this is an internet story. My guess is that people had already decided whether or not they would order Mania, and this story isn't going to sway their decision. So, it becomes a deal where you are tricking the boys in the hopes of getting the internet fans (who were probably already going to order the show in large numbers) to get the show. that doesn't make sense to me.

Its been reported for some time that Lesnar has been frustrated, so its not like ts coming out of the blue (which would make it seem like a work). Plus, this has less to do with his relationship with Vince as it does with his general dislike for the hardships of the wrestling business.

Anything is possible, especially when it comes to pro wrestling, but I definately do not think this is a work because there is so little to gain form it.

I think WWE's just saying that he's leaving so you'll think that Lesnar and Goldberg are both leaving, so you won't know who's going to win at Wrestlemania

I REALLY don't know about this. Vince is capable of working something like that. If there was a "Can't say" option I would have picked it. I voted No 'coz thats what I feel.

I don't know, this just seems like something they would do to make us all un certain to who will win, so we will all actually enjoy the match and its build up.

Besides, if its true, then the most likely thing to happen, or what should happen, is Austin stunning them both, and having the crowd count the 1-2-3.
