5 Reasons Brock Lesnar Should Stay In WWE (And 5 Reasons Why He Will Leave)

1. He Will Be Paid More Money In UFC

Money talks. Lesnar may not appear to be the smartest guy out there because he keeps to himself, but he's probably a lot smarter than people credit him for. After all, he makes millions of dollars without having to work more than 30 days all year. That's a sweet gig if you can get it. When Lesnar left UFC, it wasn't because of money. It was because he lost his last fight after missing over a year of action due to his stomach illness. He felt like he couldn't physically compete anymore. He made millions of dollars there just like he did in UFC and he was able to compete even less than he did in WWE. The UFC is doing pretty well money wise. They have shows nearly every weekend this year, the Ultimate Fighter TV show is still going strong and they have events all over the world. UFC President Dana White is in the prime of his promoting career with no sign of slowing down. They are not at their peak like they were four or five years ago when their PPVs were doing ridiculously high numbers, but they are still doing very well. Some fighters do better than others of course. They are still very profitable. When you compare them to WWE it's a completely different story. While WWE's business is doing fine, they did lose money last year because of the launch of WWE Network, which caused job losses and their stock to go down too. If you're Lesnar and you are looking at both companies purely from a business perspective, you have to consider that WWE chose to not use you more in 2014 because they had to watch how much money you were spending. Meanwhile, UFC is more than willing to pay you what you're worth because they need you to drive up the business again. Another Lesnar fight in UFC could become the all time record for PPV buys depending on the card. That's why he's going to be interested in going to UFC and that's why they will be willing to pay him what he wants because he's a huge draw. Staying in WWE would be the best thing for WWE, but it's probably not the best thing for Lesnar. That's why he's probably headed back to the UFC later this year.
