Brock Lesnar on His Future: 'Brock Lesnar Does What Brock Lesnar Wants to Do'

After beating Mark Hunt at UFC 200, the question of whether Brock Lesnar would return to the UFC was inevitable.

It was the first question asked at the post-fight press conference. His response to the question? “Brock Lesnar does what Brock Lesnar wants to do.”

Simple and straightforward.

Lesnar is currently scheduled to take on Randy Orton at WWE’s SummerSlam on Aug. 20, but nothing is on his slate after that match. The fact remains that Lesnar is under contract with the WWE regardless of what he wants to do following SummerSlam.

Veteran MMA and pro wrestling reporter Dave Meltzer was asked about Lesnar’s future on Twitter, and Meltzer stated matter-of-factly that Vince McMahon has to agree to terms for it to become a reality.

UFC President Dana White and McMahon agreed to terms for this encounter, and that should mean they are able to communicate and cut a deal in the future as well. The price will likely be steep, though.

But Brock Lesnar does do what Brock Lesnar wants to do. If Lesnar wants to fight in the UFC , there is great likelihood that he will fight again in the Octagon. After defeating Hunt, Lesnar is right back in the mix as a title contender. It is a gold-plated carrot dangling in front of the WWE’s Beast Incarnate.

Lesnar is an ultimate competitor who is willing to take risks to challenge himself. As a true contender once again, it may be too tempting not to explore. The UFC should be preparing the canvas bags as we speak for the possibility of his next trip under the UFC banner.
