10 Reasons Brock Lesnar Is The Most Hated Man In WWE

5. He May Leave For UFC Regardless

Yet more scuttlebutt (like gossip with the title on the line) has it that the WWE would actually consider Lesnar retaining the WWE world heavyweight championship at Wrestlemania 31 if he agreed terms for a new contract. There€™s certainly precedent for the company keeping the outcome of contract negotiations secret, in order to wrong foot a crowd convinced they know the winner of a match before the first bell. Sadly, there€™s also precedent for the WWE bloodymindedly pursuing the most obvious, telegraphed storytelling avenues possible. Should Lesnar return to UFC, there€™d be all sorts of options available to him, as one of the biggest names (and draws) in the business. One particular possibility has Lesnar engaging in a rubber match with Frank Mir, the man who beat him in his UFC debut, and who he beat in return seventeen months later. Paired with the debut of Lesnar€™s friend and former WWE sparring partner CM Punk, and taking place at Madison Square Garden (assuming that current moves to overturn the two decade ban on mixed martial arts in New York state meet with success), that would almost certainly set a record breaking buy rate on pay per view, a payout that Lesnar might not be willing to let slip through his fingers. But people still remember him abandoning WWE and pro wrestling for the NFL, after possibly the most audacious rookie year of any pro wrestler€™s career. His last match with Goldberg at Wrestlemania XX in 2004 saw both men get booed out of the building. If it becomes known that he€™s leaving after yet another Wrestlemania €“ one at which the projected crowd reaction is already suspect €“ he could scupper the match and the entire night€ and possibly ruin Roman Reigns€™ coronation as the new face of the WWE.
