Paul Heyman says Brock Lesnar's UFC 100 win does not make pro wrestling more legitimate
Jul 14, 2009 - 04:22 PM |
Paul Heyman told the UK Sun that Brock Lesnar's win over Frank Mir at UFC 100 does not legitimize pro wrestling. "Brock's victory in the Octagon is as much a vindication for pro wrestling or WWE as Jesse Ventura becoming governor of Minnesota is a sign that wrestlers should run for political office...
"I have nothing but the most extreme admiration for the sacrifices they make. But Brock just happens to be a UFC champion who was a pro wrestler, not a typical pro wrestler who decided to teach the MMA world how tough pro wrestlers are." To read the full story, visit the UK Sun.
Powell's POV: Fair points by Heyman. Was the comment regarding Ventura a dig at longtime Heyman adversary Jerry Lawler's run for mayor of Memphis?
