how much that prob devastated wwf,,, and they just bought him a plane not too long before...
they wntd to keep him for at least 10-20yrs... meanwhile angles getting worked on for 20 mins bfore each match not to mention prob a pin cushion for novcaine , cortisol/corticos what ev else/or for 10 min before walking out the curtain.
even still he was getting a big push,,, to the point where he was gona be made an icon is sport pop culture maybe thats y he pikd the time to leave wwf,,, he was blazn hot,,, prob woulda went real unnoticed if he went to combine or vik tryout or.... mma,, he would still be fightin low mid card now n maybe just start to get recognized now... (which was everyone beef back when he started) but biz is biz so he had the name, perceived capabilities and he was a draw that could sell tix so he got pushd obv hes stayn and hios true talent & colors ar shining thru which were gona anyway...
just as ppl in wwf know it,, if u follow wrestling and knew the stories when brock 1st strarted mma,,, u knew he was gona end up bein the best and for a while too.
