Brock Lesnar made a shock early appearance as he took over the opening match spot at WrestleMania, but lost his title, leaving people wondering whether his switch to the UFC is now sealed.
The rumors linking Lesnar with a return to the UFC got even stronger when he lost his WWE Universal Title in surprising fashion to underdog Seth Rollins, with Lesnar's manager Paul Heyman even teasing a flight to Las Vegas to join up with the MMA organization.
The real-life storyline of Lesnar's strongly-rumored return to the octagon to face Daniel Cormier for the UFC heavyweight title merged with the scripted storylines of the WWE as Lesnar's manager Paul Heyman interrupted a crowd warm-up session by Hulk Hogan and Alexa Bliss.
Grabbing a mic and addressing the crowd, Heyman stated that if his man wasn't on last, then he wouldn't wait a moment longer and would instead come on and have his match first.
"We're getting our business done and we're getting on a jet to Las Vegas, where my client is 'Ultimately' appreciated," he said.
Lesnar started the matchup in typically dominant fashion, throwing Rollins around with consummate ease.
But the hulking former UFC heavyweight champion went on to lose his match to Rollins in a result that shocked the crowd at the MetLife Stadium in New York. But the outcome makes complete sense for those who believe in Lesnar's return to the UFC.
