To follow up on the news that WWE has contacted Brock Lesnar about wrestling The Undertaker at WrestleMania 27, the latest is that most people in the company knew nothing about it until this weekend. As you can imagine, Brock Lesnar’s getting losing the UFC Heavyweight title last night and having a face-to-face encounter with The Undertaker is a big topic of discussion backstage at Bragging Rights.
At this point, Brock Lesnar’s future is unclear. His next opponent is rumored to be Frank Mir in what would be their third showdown, with each man holding a victory over the other.
Lesnar received several stitches in this face following his fight with Cain Velasquez and said he did not attend the post-fight press conference because he wanted Velasquez to get the spotlight.
Early indications are that UFC 121 had a tremendous amount of buys, with some predictions saying it could be the second most purchased UFC PPV of all time. Brock Lesnar is a huge draw and the belief is that Cain Velasquez brought in a lot of Mexican American viewers. New UFC Heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez will be on comedian George Lopez’ show “Lopez Tonight” on TBS Monday night.
