    the dominator? if he wants anyone to take him seriously hes gunna have to get rid of that riduculous ass nickname. sounds like hes re auditioning for a role as a pro wrestler all over again.

    good performance though. to whoever said lashley is a young 30 i couldnt agree less. pro wrestling is no joke. between the amounts and different types of drugs you have to take just to function and the sheer wear and tear from being beaten up day in and day out that **** takes a toll.

    i see the guy ultimately fighting somewhere in japan or maybe strikeforce, where the steroid testing might be a bit less stringent.

    Lashly didnt spend along time in OVW as far as i know and his tenure in the WWE was relatively short.

    WWE is taking over MMA. Vince McMahon will be running UFC in a couple of years

    Vince tried to do a pseudo-mma/toughman series, called the 'Brawl For All', and it was a bust. I myself thought it was far more interesting than the wrestling, but I dont think Vince will ever go into that again. Ironically enough, the McMahon's started out in boxing, peaking to co-promote the Willard/Johnson fight in Cuba, but soon after switched to wrestling.

    4-5 years ago He did. We would have had something along the lines of a Pride FC production maybe more extravagant. Now we will never know how the Big Show will fare against Randy

    Not to sound pro-WWE, or anti-MMA, but I just can't see Randy tear off Big Show's arm.
    Honestly, If Big Show has any aggression in a MMA fight, I damn sure would not bet against him! Of course size doesn't mean everything...Bob Sapp is 6'7 350, and solid, but he's a bigass baby though who can't take a shot. Then there's the giant chinese guy, but he's not really feeled out, or strong like Show.
    It'd take one hell of a man for me to bet against a 7 foot 450 pound giant. Him doing Pro wrestling (throwing big guys around daily), and also his breif venture out in the world of boxing couldn't hurt. It'd be simple for a guy like him. Grab your opponent who's half your size, and break him in half.
    Lesnar comes in around 270, and throws these guys around like bitches...and honestly, I don't even see how he's had any wrestling experience. He grabs them, takes them down, and beats the top of there heads for about....14 1/2 minutes. Strength can mean a lot if you understand how to use it.
