What's your theory on why he's returning to the octagon for UFC 200?

Obviously Brock loves money and competition but what's the story behind this with Dana White and Mcmahon
>>
>They get Brock for 200
>We get Rousey for Mania

Pretty simple
>>
Hes just bored, after his "feud" with Dean who can blame him.
>>
Mcgregor v Diaz 2 fell through, so they needed some big names to get plebs like you to buy the pay per view. So they give brock a boatload of cash to do this one superfight.
>>
>>1441694
What a shitty deal

No one gives a fuck about that fat bulldog looking trog anymore
>>
>>1441684
Probably opens up the possibility to more cross promotion later.
>>
He has very little to gain and a tremendous amount to lose by going back. No idea why he's doing it, although I suppose a guy with a dick sword tattoed on his chest probably isn't the best at making good decisions.

>What's your theory on why he's returning to the octagon for UFC 200?
UFC needed a big draw, brock was a big draw for UFC and dana was pissed when brock told him to fuck off and re-signed with the WWE.
>what's the story behind this with Dana White and Mcmahon
dana wants to be vince so bad, he has said so many times that he admires him a lot. Brock pretty much said dana isnt even in vinces league and vince is a real innovator and dana is a cheap rip off. So dana begged brock to come back for big time money, told vince, vince probably gets something and return and brock will go do this fight and come back in time for the next ppv.
>>
>>1441684
Vince allow Brock to wrestle at UFC as long as UFC advertises Summerslam
>>
>>1441751
The real question I guess is what is Vince getting out of this?
>>
Brock is all about the money, and I presume with Dana not being able to get Conor/GSP on board for 200, Brock was the next biggest name. Wouldn't surprise me if they threw an utter fuck-ton of money his way.
>>
>>1441726
>a tremendous amount to lose

What does he stand to lose? Credibility in WWE? Everyone knows WWE is fake and WWE itself promotes Lesnar as a badass based on his MMA stint. He's going back to fight a top 10 heavyweight and the hardest hitter in the division after staying away for 5 years due to a severe bout of diverticulitis, if he loses he still lost to a credible opponent with mitigating circumstances. If he wins, holy shit, he beat Mark Hunt despite all the odds being stacked against him. Cue room for speculation of one more fight somewhere down the line. And either way, he makes boatloads of cash for a single night of work.

Rhonda rousey
>>
>>1441777
The fact that they are not plugging Brock's fight on WWE TV at all tells you they are not getting any cut of the PPV, so they are keeping quiet about it and actively not promoting Brock at UFC 200.
WWE wanted Paige Van Zant to do something at Summerslam this year but she said no to concentrate on fighting. So who knows what WWE are getting out of it, but they seemingly ain't getting shit as they haven't said one word about on their TV about it.
>>

chubby rhonda or in shape rhonda though?
>>
>>1441849
>they are not getting any cut of the PPV
true, had they been even fuck 5% they would have plugged it a lot, but UFC being possibly sold and dana being cheap probably put that not even as a factor and well paying brock a shit ton as well.

>Vince is a real innovator

This is wrong. He stole all his 80s stars from the territories, stole the Wrestlemania idea from Starcade, stole the idea for a national, weekly show from Nitro, stole the idea for going to 2 hours from Nitro, stole the idea for going to THREE hours from Nitro, stole the idea for a second show from Thunder, and stole Austin from WCW.

The FEW things Vince can take credit for is making the PPV system huge, making Undertaker huge, and making Cena "huge," even as a ratings killer. Austin and Rock got over in spite of Vince. Following Vince's ideas, Austin was basically Cesaro, and fans' were chanting for Rocky Maivia's death.
>>

>>1442030
He didn't steal Austin from WCW. Austin was never anything close to Stone Cold anywhere else.

Nitro debuted almost 2 years after RAW was on the air.
Thunder was more like Shotgun Saturday with B tier wrestlers. Smackdown post invasion was the first and only true NA brand split.


You're probably trolling but I still wanted to let you know you were wrong.


Who gets credit for WWE network which is literally the most profitable thing ever in wrestling history?
>>
>>1441905
damn, she really let herself go after that loss.

CM Punk will debut before she'll ever get back in the octagon.
>>
>>1442004
It is going to be 2017 when she competes at Mania
>>
>>1441694
What a shitty trade
>>
>>1442110
It's not a trade it's cross promoting. WWE gets a boost from their product being at 200 UFC gets the same from mania buzz
>>
>>1442114
It's 2 performers switching sides for a night

That's a trade
>>
$6m+ for <5 minutes work
>>
>>1442114
it's still shitty. Rousey literally let herself fucking go. she's too much of a pussy to go for a rematch for fuck sake.
>>
>>1441684
>what's the story behind this with Dana White and Mcmahon
wwe isn't a real sports promotion, vince legally can't do shit if brock wants to be in the UFC as a free agent. You can't put a stipulation in a stage actors contract that they aren't allowed to play sports as well.
>>
Brock wanted to come back because he didn't like ending his fighting career the way he did. You know, shitty fights due to diverticulitis.

Brock was not asked to come back, he picked up the phone and called to ask to come back. Do you really think Brock needs the money? Dude is rich as fuck.

Nobody prompted Brock's comeback but himself.

He wants money and is obviously disinterested in professional wrestling. UFC was willing to pay him money for a high-profile fight.

It'll still be interesting to see what WWE is getting in return, if anything.
>>
>>1442719
Small and look like they aren't great quality but I want to impregnate her so badly.
>>
>>1441684
Mcmahon knows that if Brock when it will make him more money in the WWE, and if Brock loses he can say to Brock that he is worth less because of that and he doesnt have to pay him as much.
