y'know, re-reading the offical news blurb:
Quote:
Brock Lesnar has made a personal decision to put his WWE career on hold to prepare to tryout for the National Football League this season. Brock has wrestled his entire professional career in the WWE and we are proud of his accomplishments and wish him the best in his new endeavor.
it sounds a lot more temporary than i thought it was. almost seems to say "if he doesn't make a cut this season, he'll be back in the wwe."
still a silly decision.
