Brock Lesnar has signed a new lucrative contract with WWE closing the door indefinitely on a return to MMA.
After weeks and weeks of speculation, Brock Lesnar has announced in an interview with ESPN that he will not be making a return to the octagon and has in fact signed a new multi year contract with the World Wrestling Entertainment.
Lesnar attended UFC 184 last month and was photographed with UFC President Dana White. Many people believed that this was a sure sign that Lesnar had given up his in ring career, again, to head to the octagon... again. Although, it was speculated that Brock attended this event in order to gain some leverage in his contract negotiations with the WWE. Lesnar has since stated that he attended the event to "get a feel" of it again, in order to make his decision. He also stated that the decision did not come lightly and that it took him a year to come to this conclusion.

With Wrestlemania now just a few days away, what does this mean for the main event of the show?
Many fans believed Lesnar was out the door and that Roman Reigns was walking out the grandest stage of them all as the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. However, with this new information emerging, the main event can now go any way... Will Brock Lesnar continue to conquer everyone in his path, or will Roman Reigns finally become the one to beat the one behind the 21-1... We'll have to wait until Wrestlemania, this Sunday, to find out!
Either way, this news means we're going to see more of this...
and this...
And of course... this...
