The feeling is that Vince McMahon never would have allowed for such frequent mentions of a UFC fighter unavailable for a WWE appearance if he did not believe something could be worked out.<\/p>\n<p>Sources close to Lesnar say that the former WWE and UFC Champion is personally quite interested in the idea.  For Lesnar, the one-time role would be a relatively risk-free way to score a multi-million dollar payday.  With an autobiography due out in the second quarter of 2011, a WrestleMania appearance would also provide valuable publicity for the book.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, Dana White, who as Lesnar&#8217;s boss in UFC apparently holds the power of final decision, has not given any indication that he will waver on his prohibitive stance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[7,10],"tags":[],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>News on Brock Lesnar&#039;s WWE WrestleMania Talks, Will the Appearance Happen?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"While UFC President Dana White&#039;s condemnation of the idea seemingly killed all hope that Brock Lesnar would be returning to WWE for a one-off appearance\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2010\/12\/01\/news-on-brock-lesnars-wwe-wrestlemania-talks-will-the-appearance-happen\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"News on Brock Lesnar&#039;s WWE WrestleMania Talks, Will the Appearance Happen?\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"While UFC President Dana White&#039;s condemnation of the idea seemingly killed all hope that Brock Lesnar would be returning to WWE for a one-off appearance\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2010\/12\/01\/news-on-brock-lesnars-wwe-wrestlemania-talks-will-the-appearance-happen\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Headline Planet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2010-12-02T04:45:47+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/view1.picapp.com\/pictures.photo\/image\/5353226\/ufc-100-frank-mir-brock\/ufc-100-frank-mir-brock.jpg?size=234&imageId=5353226\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Brian Cantor\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cantorpedia\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@headlineplanet\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2010\/12\/01\/news-on-brock-lesnars-wwe-wrestlemania-talks-will-the-appearance-happen\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2010\/12\/01\/news-on-brock-lesnars-wwe-wrestlemania-talks-will-the-appearance-happen\/\",\"name\":\"News on Brock Lesnar's WWE WrestleMania Talks, Will the Appearance Happen?\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2010-12-02T04:45:47+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2010-12-02T04:45:47+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\"},\"description\":\"While UFC President Dana White's condemnation of the idea seemingly killed all hope that Brock Lesnar would be returning to WWE for a one-off appearance\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/2010\/12\/01\/news-on-brock-lesnars-wwe-wrestlemania-talks-will-the-appearance-happen\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/\",\"name\":\"Headline Planet\",\"description\":\"Music News &amp; Charts, TV News &amp; Spoilers\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/b530255b81ceb7463ea060a9b8a302c8\",\"name\":\"Brian Cantor\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/headlineplanet.com\/home\/#\/schema\/person\/image\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/5726265e0532f231e46bbddd41009383?s=96&d=mm&r=g\",\"caption\":\"Brian Cantor\"},\"description\":\"Brian Cantor is the editor-in-chief for Headline Planet.
