Here We Go...Bobby Lashley Challenges Brock Lesnar...

[FedEx227]

What W2B is trying to say is absolutely true. Not only do you have your MMA audience still watching but now you can drag a lot of wrestling fans who may just say "Oh wow Brock vs. Lashley! I have to see that!" even if it is a shoot.

It's a great move to do that, especially in a downtime for wrestling.

I wouldn't doubt it. Dana White would be smelling nothing but ratings and PPV galore. Just because he made the choice to be a pro wrestler doesn't mean he isn't legit in a fight. Which is what the close-minded thinking some MMA fans carry with them, the idea that wrestlers aren't talented.

Really, a guy can come off the street and then whup some ass and become the champ? Please - they're trained for this as well, maybe not the same disciplines, but they at least work at it.

what are you talking about?

Brock and Lashley are former D1 champs, they are not Stone Cold and John Cena, 'real' wrestling is 1 of the better bases to have in MMA

Yeah this isn't The Undertaker were talking about these are very well established college wrestlers. Brock was one of the more dominant ones of his time and Lashley was a multiple-time champ himself.
