More On Brock Leaving WWE Including The 9 Reasons Why He Left
By Chris Walters on March 20, 2004 at 8:02 PM EST

Brock Lesnar still has another five years left on his WWE contract which has put WWE in the power position in terms of negotiating his release. Brock parted ways with super agent Barry Bloom after Bloom got him his original WWE contract. It seems likely right now that WWE will not allow him to work for any other pro-wrestling or shoot fight company for the next five years. WWE is expecting Brock to return if he is unable to land a job in the NFL. Despite what some think, Lesnar is not financially set for life. He is very young and spent money freely during the last year or so on expensive cars and other "toys."

At this point, these appear to be the nine reasons why Brock Lesnar left WWE:

1. His travel schedule. Brock has always been a farm boy and he could not handle the hectic schedule, waking up in hotel rooms everyday, etc.

2. He didn't love pro-wrestling. Brock got into wrestling for the money. He actually hated pro-wrestling when he was a standout amateur wrestler.

3. Right or wrong, he really feels he can make it to the NFL. Brock misses being involved in a "real sport."

4. He thought WWE did not appreciate him enough. Brock was not happy with how he was being booked and that he had to drop the WWE Title to a "little guy" like Eddie Guerrero. He wanted a long title reign. Having to work matches against Bob Holly in South Africa made him feel even more demoted.

5. His personal life. Brock is currently living with his young child and the child's mother, while dating Sable. His personal life has added a lot of stress and anxiety.

6. He was embarrassed that walk up ticket sales to WWE house shows went up after he dropped the WWE Title to Eddie Guerrero.

7. He did not want to feud with the Undertaker. 'Taker had been telling people that he would "set Brock straight" and humble him if he didn't show veterans respect.

8. He did not want to end up with serious injuries or be a cripple. He did not like that wrestling had no off season where he could rest his body.

9. He had nothing left to prove. He had already reached the top of the wrestling industry and thought the only place he would go now is down, then back up to where he had already been. He wanted a new challenge.

What a cock, I personally hope he never comes back.

Some of those reasons are understandable.

Some are pretty big-headed. Especially that he was upset dropping the strap to Eddie. WTF

I dunno. I liked him, but around the time of the Brock/Angle ironman match, I started getting tired of him. I wouldn't mind him back at some point, but I also won't miss him much.

I hope they never let that bastard back into WWE again. I hope his NFL career is failure also, I may add. I also find it funny he's dating someone that is old enough to be his ****ing mom.

**** that really pissed me off when I read he didn't like wrestling.

Well, I suppose there are some 10 year old mothers.

Wrestling's a hard business, folks, and not just anyone can do it. Makes me respect those who go out and wrestle even more. Thank you, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, Chris Benoit, and the list of others who sacrifice their body day in and day out, in some cases for over 20 years, for our entertainment.

That's pathetic.

Seriously, I was a huge fan of him when he was wrestling, and you guys know that because I'd always stick up for him, but after reading that article I just lost a whole hell of a lot of respect for him. He didn't care about his fans or the business, it was all about the green to him which is exactly the color he's going to be if he joins the NFL.

He is NOT coming back. If he can make it onto an NFL team he will not be coming back, no way no how. He got into pro wrestling for the money and hated it, so if he can make money playing football he's going to stick with football. Eddie should've slapped the taste out of his mouth if he knew Brock was belittling him like that.

There was no reason to believe he wasn't the biggest thing in the business, after all, why wouldn't a college wrestler enjoy being a pro wrestler?

Austin leaving was pretty bad, but it's not the same as Brock. Brock leaving is like Austin leaving in 1999.

Honestly, you guys would rather he come out and do something he hates, putting on mediocre matches because he doesn't care?

If he didn't want to be there, he shouldn't have to be there. If he'll be happier as a third-string football player, more power to him.

I know that Brock Lesnar never intended on going any further in college wrestling after his NCAA title because he was insistant that he was going to enter pro wrestling so I can't see with a mind like that why he would hate it before then.

Wow.
I'm feeling somewhat the way MVP does. I really liked Brock. Even as a heel. But to hear that he didnt think of wrestling as an actual sport, or that he was upset to job to the 'little guy' status of Eddie... I lost alot of respect for the guy.
Wrestling has more of a fan base and more 'converts' I believe, than any other sport, not including the XFL.
Did he think that he's stay champ forever? I mean... crap, you're going to lose matches sooner or later, I don't care how ****ing big you are. Even Andre the giant, Hogan, the Ultimate Warrior, guys who were huge, have lossed or jobbed to a 'little guy'. Thats why there are 'major upsets' in sports.
Why the wwe has left the door 'open' for him at a later date, is beyond me. I really can't think of a reson why he should be let back in after he fails in the NFL, or F-5's some quaterback or something.
There are guys who live for the sport, they eat, sleep, breathe wrestling. And for Brock to dis thos guys... I have a feeling that alot of wrestlers have lost respect for him too.

I haven't given a crap about Brock from day one, and I'm now glad he's gone. He had a pro wrestling wet dream handed to him on a fucking plate. If that's not good enough for him, then all the better he go away. I hope he gets tied up into some sort of NFL contract he won't be able to get out of, and that if he ever does return to WWE they start feeding him to midcarders for lunch.

Indeed. I hated Austin back when he didn't want to put Jeff Jarrett over and then Scott Hall later on, but when he up and left I was flat out pissed. I can't stand him taking up tv time without even wrestling.

Brock has some legitimate reasons for leaving, but reasons 4, 7, and 9 are complete egotism on his part. I'm sorry, but if you are a wrestler it is your job to do the job to other guys, bigger or smaller. It's not about winning the belt, it's about making the other guy look good. I can understand feeling demoted by having to work with Bob Holly, I mean Brooklyn Brawler feels demoted having to job to him. Nevertheless, Eddie is a great worker who put many years into the business and Brock (who had everything handed to him after 4 years) is pissing on him. I'm not usually one to promote the vets pushing around the new guys, but Brock is a special case, and Undertaker should have set him straight.

And if Brock makes it into the NFL, how long before an injury ends his little dream? Wrestlers don't become football players, footbal players become wrestlers.

Oh, I support Brock's decision whole-heartedly. It's the "American Dream" to make a living doing what you want to do, right? If you just work hard enough.

Now, I'm a pretty huge sports guy all around, I love my New Orleans A'ints, and if Brock makes the NFL, I'll be happy for him. To many people, the fact that wrestling is scripted bothers them greatly - they want to see a real competition. But to me, that's its greatest aspect: football is about winning, wrestling is about entertainment. In "real sports" the object is to win, no matter how boring the method is; this goal creates the attitude that real sports are about the competitors. And sure, I've got no problem with that, why should I? It can be largely entertaining, but that's merely a byproduct. Wrestling is a dedication to the fans. When done right, I get the feeling that these guys are sacrificing their lives for me and the other millions out there (notice, I said when done right). I rarely get that feeling in "real sports." I love that feeling.

That's not to say I can really blame Brock for doing what he did. He wanted money, he got money. Hell, Bret and Owen got into the business for the money. It only makes me appreciate the guys who have cracked their ribs, fractured their legs, broken their necks, and in one case, lost his life for years not just for the money, but for the love of it and for the love of the fans. Even when they're putting out a subpar show, and even when they're bullshitting us, they're still taking dangerous bumps that continue to make us scream "Holy Shit!" And I've gotta respect that.

I wasn't his biggest fan but at the end of the day, he didn't want to wrestle anymore and he did business before leaving so fair play to him.

If Brock says something about like that about dropping the strap to Eddie, I'll say this:

Brock Lesnar can go fuck himself.

I love how a lot of you guys who only know anything about wrestling because of the internet (hell I'm one of those guys) are passing all these judgements on Brock. The fact is, Brock did his job. And like three quarters of us, he didn't like his job and he didn't like the decisions his boss made, but at the end of the day, he did his job anyways. And so what if he quits? If you didn't like what you were doing, and found another opportunity to do something, wouldn't you do it?

And I love Guerrero as much as the next guy, and I love wrestling too, but you all reply like he offended you or something. Brock Lesnar said what was on his mind, and so be it if he didn't like wrestling, the fact of the matter is he entertained us and he worked hard. The fact that you guys are crying because of what he says is just superficial bullshit, and get over yourselves, because until you're wrestling night after night, waking up in hotel rooms and travelling all over the place, you have jackshit room to speak.

The only reason people are getting pissed is because Brock basically said he didn't like what he was doing. However, he did things the right way, although he thought it was bullshit. He jobbed to Eddie, even though he didn't want to, and hell he worked hard night after night, even though he didn't want to. So now he wants to quit, because he couldn't take it anymore, and it's not like he's asking for more money or trying to screw Vince, he just doesn't like wrestling.

He signed on for how many years?

And how many years of that did he work?

I mean, you're applying internet logic to defend him too, how exactly does that work? Your argument has every chance of being as full of shit as theirs do.



I'd like to know how many of us have ever left contract work like this before. I somehow doubt it's anywhere REMOTELY close to 3/4s.

Do you honestly think that 3/4 of the people here have signed a contract for a decade to do something they dislike, worked a couple years, and then wanted out for doing exactly what they signed up to do? Yeah, he might not like the way his boss is doing things, but he signed a contract with the guy, and didn't seem bothered then. Didn't mind leaving his character up to creative control then.

Maybe he thought he'd be a champion the entire duration of his contract. That would have been a realistic expectation.

The WWE let him out, which is lucky for him.

Normally, you don't sign a contract to do work that requires things you don't like to do, or at least ones so horribly objectable.

BRB, gonna go contract myself as a surgeon then quit because I can't stand the sight of blood.

You know, I really can't beleive what Brock is saying. I really was a fan of his, but started to get tired of him after a while. But for Brock to completely bash the WWE, the place that has basically made him a household name, is crap. To say that the WWE didn't appreciate him is really egotistical or hypocritical. He was at the top of the WWE within months of his debut and has been there for nearly two years. If he's saying that, than maybe some people like Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero can say they're not appreciated because they have just now climbed to the top after years of hard work.
