Guest wrestlingbs Report post Posted March 15, 2004 "Brock Lesnar's interview with KFAN radio has been rescheduled for tomorrow morning on Mike Morris's program. Morris is a former Minnesota Viking and Brock's workout buddy in town. The word here in Minnesota is that he "doesn't want to be part of a fake sport anymore." That may be other people's interpretation of him innocuously stating he wants to be part of a competition again, or it could be what it sounds like, which is him using the "fakeness" cliche as an excuse for him not being able to handle the travel schedule while keeping his complicated personal life in order." Credit Wade Keller, PWTorch. Like Wade pointed out, this is just a secondhand rumor. However, I can see Brock saying this, considering after last night he probably hates pro wrestling and wants to spit on it anyway he can. What amazes me is how, with little chance of sucess in the NFL, Lesnar is so easily and carelessly burning bridges with the WWE. Vince is gonna be pissed when he tries to come back.

RavishingRickRudo 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2004 *Falls off chair laughing* PRIDE would LOVE to have Brock fight for them. Their standards aren't very high if you're famous. Bob Sapp didn't have a lot of experience, was a pro wrestler and former football player and they put him up against the Champ. They have often pushed pro wrestlers (In the beginning, they based their promotion around Nobuhiko Takada - a pro wrestler... and the cause of the majority of the works in the companies history. Sakuraba, their biggest star ever, was a pro wrestler. If anything, Brock may be OVER-qualified with his amateur wrestling history.) PRIDE is more about the show than the sport.

Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2004 Well then. Would he? Could any of us actually see Brock in PrideFC? I mean, Pride would have to offer a hell of a lot of money to attract Brock. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masked Man of Mystery 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2004 Wait wait wait...I thought the whole point was that MMA events WEREN'T FIXED, and you saw two guys battling it out. Pride fixes its events...oh God. Please just tell me the Otsuka/Silva fight at Pride 18 wasn't fixed. I was rooting so hard for Otsuka in that fight. Please just tell me they didn't tell Silva to just hold off until the third round. Oh man, youv guys freaking just ruined my day.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
