What also might have been interesting as a flashback is a scene explaining what happened between Hulk landing in Sakaar and becoming a celebrity warrior under Grand Master's influence.

Knowing Hulk as we do, there's no way he would have been easily captured by the junk-yard grabbers (Thor put up a pretty good fight and Hulk's a bigger threat altogether). And then the idea of him being convinced to fight under Grand Master's banner as his champion demands explanation.

He might have developed some intellect through longevity, but when he got to Sakaar, he would still have been the primitive monster, and though the Grand Master is manipulative and fiendishly clever, there's no real reasoning with the Jade Giant. So that hole asks a lot of questions.
