As everyone knows, Brock Lesnar got knocked out pretty fast in his comeback fight Friday night. In fact, it was like Brock wasn't even fighting and instead it was a poorly trained clone. Almost immediately after his defeat Lesnar announced during the pay-per-view telecast that he was retiring, and as many of you have read, since then people have been anticipating his return to World Wrestling Entertainment. I actually wrote an article yesterday as to why the company or fans don't need him back (from a business not a personal standpoint). However, this article isn't about whether he should return; it's about the recent remarks made by the first Undisputed Champion, Chris Jericho. Yesterday Jericho Tweeted: "Lesnar just took a dive...." Odds are Jericho is just working people and trying to get everyone off his back in regards to who the mystery man that will be returning tomorrow night on Raw. Plus, it's Chris Jericho, this is what he does! However lets just imagine for a second that Jericho wasn't trying to blow smoke and actually might believe Lesnar took a dive. Anything is possible. Lesnar is by no means old, but he sure has had a few rough years with his health and he's not the dominate fighter he once was, he had a decent run for someone who entered the sport much later in life than most do and maybe he realized that he just didn't need or want to continue to train 6-10 months a year for one fight that he could possibly lose and be a laughing stock. Maybe he realized that he could make much more money for a months work while being almost universally cheered and still looked at like a monster. Did Lesnar Take A Dive? Yes No Submit Vote vote to see results If you haven't understood what I'm getting at, I'm saying maybe Lesnar took a dive to actually go back to the one place he seemed to hate.....professional wrestling. The last six months seem way too coincidental and I don't believe in coincidences. In June, CM Punk mentions Brock Lesnar during his shoot promo. In July, Dana White visited WWE HQ and had a meeting with Vince McMahon. Lesnar then appeared in the new WWE 12 video game. This is the first time Lesnar had been associated with a WWE product in years. Then during during a pre-fight press conference, Lesnar made some (in hindsight) interesting remarks where he said "Wrestling is fake" and "I am Brock Lesnar the UFC fighter." Just a few hours later he was Brock Lesnar the retired UFC fighter. Now as I said, Jericho is probably just working everyone and he knew what he tweeted would go viral...and it did! But do you (the reader) think what he said has any merit to it? Do you think Brock took a dive so he could go make more money for one match then just disappear forever. People will remember him much more as a dominate force if he goes back to WWE and destroys people compared to getting his butt kicked in UFC. No man likes to be remembered as someone who loses.
