Yeah, Brock has announced that his match at WrestleMania will be his last. Good, if you ask me.

He bítched about having to job to Taker when he returned, and he also whinged about having to travel to South Africa JUST to face Hardcore Holly. That's pretty crappy if you ask me. Shows how much this rookie-retard respects his collegues.

He told Vince that he wanted to go back to National League Football. Brock in the NFL...pfft.

"As we reported earlier today, Brock Lesnar announced yesterday that his last date for WWE would be at WrestleMania. We have more information on the story and this is definitely one of those situations where truth is stranger than fiction.

Brock Lesnar stood up in front of the Smackdown crew yesterday at the pre-show talent meeting and announced that he was leaving WWE after WrestleMania to pursue a career in the National Football League.

Lesnar, who recently signed a 7-year deal with the WWE, told Vince McMahon of his decision last Tuesday at Smackdown, a meeting we reported on earlier this week. As we said in that story, this situation started coming to a head when Lesnar, who has become burnt out by WWE’s travel schedule (and reportedly also by his recent push down the card from main event status) for some time, was then sent to work on the big South Africa tour but was “only” put into matches with Hardcore Holly instead of higher profile bouts. He met with Vince McMahon last week at Smackdown and voiced his concerns and informed him at that time that he was going to leave WWE.

Lesnar, has also reportedly been upset that he was going to have to put over the Undertaker’s Dead Man character after Mania, and be in a feud with a guy who, by the nature of his character, doesn’t sell for his opponent. This all led up to yesterday’s announcement.

From what our sources have told us, Lesnar informed everyone at the meeting that he was miserable in the business. He said that it was not any reflection on the business per se, but he just couldn't find happiness in the industry any more.

He publicly thanked Vince McMahon, Jim Ross and Gerry Brisco "for finding me in college," and thanked Big Show and Paul Heyman for all their help with his career. He told the crew he wouldn't be back and he was said to be very emotional and wished everyone well.

The announcement was met with mixed reactions from the people in the company that I spoke with. Some felt that it opened up opportunities for the talent. Others, who had been critical of Brock’s “elitist” behavior of late and felt that he hadn’t earned his stripes, let alone deserved to be upset about not being pushed as a main-eventer, told me that now they can understand that he may have been that way because he was unhappy.

No matter how you look at it, WWE is losing one of their top wrestlers, at least for now. I never say never in the business, but at this point in time Lesnar is completely serious about leaving wrestling."

Dunno where that's taken from, but you can find my by if you go to NoDQ.com, or something.

I'd get Booker and RVD to drop the belts at WM XX and then move them over to Smackdown. They both deserve to be main eventers and on Smackdown they will be able to. Plus it gives some much needed stars to the Smackdown brand.

I'm guessing one of the Raw main eventers/upcoming midcarders will move to Smackdown. Christian maybe?

OR...another idea...when Edge returns in two weeks (we hope, week after WMXX), he can move to main event status. I hope he comes back as a face.

Maybe we'll see Brock at the Superbowl! :D

Anyway, I feel Brock was not ready for the main event. His only decent matches were against people who could work and raise his game. He got exposed by worse wrestlers than him.

Sure, he had potential but he needed more work. He obviously wasn't prepared to put in the hard graft, got unhappy and decided to leave.

The good news, someone will have to fill his main event spot and there will have to be a rejig in the roster.
