I hope they finally get rid of Brock. I hate the idea of the champ never being there. Had to look up when his UFC title fight will be cause I assumed WWE would let him stay champ till that fight, so they can have duel sport champ. Brock is still suspended from UFC for doping since he reentered technically in July he still has 6 months to go. So the earliest this UFC title fight could be would be Jan. 2019. I now see this going one of two ways.
A: Brock losses at summerslam and they cut him lose to never be seen again. If the guy wants to fight in UFC go you're dead to us. Part of reason he hasn't been seen lately is cause they have him for one more big payday to have him lose than boot him. Save his big lose for big show like summerslam. I prefer this option, his matches aren't that good when they do happen, and the best part of him is Paul Heyman and he can stay.
B: WWE and UFC are working together and both like the idea of their champs fighting each other. UFC will get huge sales number for champ vs champ ppv, lots of WWE fans will watch like they do when Punk loses fights. UFC can't lose, If Courmer wins than they can say UFC is real fighters and WWE is fake. If Brock wins they get to do whole thing over with rematch. WWE would love to bring Brock out on raw with both belts, gives them the appearance of realism. This would mean Brock has to win at summerslam, than he probably has one more match before January, likely Survivor series. However, if he's training for UFC he likely will not be showing up anywhere to rule out chance of getting hurt. I think there is outside chance he wins at summerslam than does nothing for rest of year and rides out year has champ. This could be why they are having Roman vs Brock again, Roman has already lose this match why not force him to lose it again. Better Roman than star people actually like. If Brock wins UFC title in Jan. this leads to huge mania match in April.
Living in south Florida I saw ads for raw last week and it was Brock and Ronda. I watch enough to know they weren't actually going to do anything but I would bet some fool thought they were actually see them fight. I was really hoping at end of raw Brock would come down just walk around ring than head back up ramp, never doing anything.
