    More like Vince is making the fans believe Dana cares. And you are buying into his BS

    Dude got 50 grand just to let Brock appear in WWE 12. He made around $55 mill in gate and PPV percentage points off Brock's UFC shows. I really doubt Dana gives a shit now Brock is no longer on his roster. He got his money.

    Once again.... This has nothing to do with Dana/Vince, cause as stated, Dana could give a fuck.... Vince wants the fans to think that WWE is better then UFC.

    Oh lord the old WWE is competing against UFC nonsense again. First of all WWE isn't anywhere near Dana's radar, Dana even openly invites WWE superstars to watch his shows, he might give notice if WWE were a MMA organization instead of a wrestling organization but he doesn't. Dana has important things to worry about and WWE isn't one of em.

    Vince bring in UFC top drawer, back to his company.... Has him kick Cena's ass for three weeks and looks like a mega badass. Cena wins at Extreme Rules, where Brock is wearing his MMA gear.

    Once again..... I am NOT talking about Dana White. I am talking about Vince, the guy that thinks he trained people to chant ECW. I would put money on the fact that he was wanting fans to think that his guys are "tougher."

    Buyrates and TV options say no. Vince is a little carney in a big world. Brawl 4 All sucked and hurt more people than it helped. He will bow to Hollywood's middle aged action heroes but not put over a person under contract for regular appearances for a whole year with a legit background who has proven to be bankable on PPV over the person who has headlined most of the PPVs in the 3 year down trending revenue period despite their merch sales... it really is just wasting money. You do this when he's on his way out again to redeem your investment in building him by having him give the rub when he's leaving, you don't job them in their first match back. They should have let it build to RR 2013 and had Taker win the Rumble and challenge Brock, WHC title vs Streak.

    In other words it's like TNA believing they can compete against WWE, eventhough evidence points out how out of their league they are against WWE. Especially since casual MMA fans consider WWE a joke as WWE fans, even casual wrestling fans, consider the same to TNA

    If Vince did this because he wants fans to think WWE is better than UFC then he has finaly lost it, is a senile old man and needs to have the company taken away from him.
    You know what that finish was?

    Took place mainly during 98-99 and all starred Ken Shamrock. Concept basically was a hardcore match in a "octagon" like cage

    Shamrock vs. Blackman
