This is odd. Doesn't make sense for him to be there and now appear, especially business-wise. Interesting.

One of two things happened:

1) Lesnar flew to Nashville but was told the show would basically center around Randy Orton and the fallout from Fast Lane. This, in and of itself, ticked Lesnar off since he could have just stayed home.

2) Lesnar is being the whiny b*tch he's always been since he landed on his head at WM19. Nobody cared and has been in business for himself since. He's always been a sh*thead, but that was the day he became a diva instead of a man.

I lean toward scenario #1 out of optimism.
It's becoming more and more likely my #2 scenario is precisely what did happen.
He flew to RAW to p*ss and moan about his entitlements only to fly back out to Canada in a huff.
Not even believe Brock is that stupid to make the flight, just to walk out over nothing. My take is, the show was centered around Orton so he walked.

I want to believe Brock had a reason yet everything about 'the way he rolls' suggests otherwise. He took the flight, showed initiative and strong armed for more money. He's bullied his position by walking out. Same old act

If you were saying that about me, i'd be taking that as a compliment. He probably had it much worse, to quote/reply to yourself really shows signs of straining going on.

I don't click external links, brother, quote the important stuff for me plx.

I'll do you one better: here's the whole article:

One of the crazier rumors making the way around the Internet over the last 12 hours has been one that originated on Reddit.com where an anonymous user claimed that Brock Lesnar had walked out of the WWE Raw taping on Monday due to Roman Reigns failing a WWE Wellness test and the company deciding not to suspended Reigns.

Despite the lack of any sort of credible sourcing, the story picked up steam online via message boards and social media, to the point I woke up to over 150 emails all sending links to the story asking about it.

I reached out to WWE today regarding the rumor. I already suspected there was nothing to this (and we usually ignore such rumors), but given the huge play it has gotten via social media, I wanted to give the company a chance to respond to this sea of ridiculousness.

WWE's official statement:

"That story is absolutely, 100% untrue."

So, there you have it folks. Paul McCartney isn't dead...and Roman Reigns didn't fail a Wellness test.

So Bork just had his period? Why would WWE pay dude as much as he makes to just kick it backstage? Was he giving handshakes and high fives to people on their way out to their matches? Free Rustled Jimmy Johns?

Here are some (similar) updates:

As noted, WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar was backstage at Monday's RAW but left before the show was over after some sort of dispute with WWE officials.

In an update, Lesnar was backstage when RAW began but left after a business disagreement with Vince McMahon. Apparently the disagreement had to do with their negotiations for Lesnar to sign a new WWE contract.

There's speculation that the negotiations included Lesnar wanting to fight for UFC while under contract with WWE but even if that speculation is true, that was not a part of this disagreement. The issues from Monday were only related to WWE's offer and the terms of the new deal. The issues also had nothing to do with current or future creative plans.

The situation was not settled as of today but could be settled any time now. Lesnar's camp and WWE are at a key impasse right now and neither side wants to back down. It's believed that Lesnar will show up for his remaining WWE dates because skipping them would bring a breach of contract. Lesnar is currently scheduled for the March 9th RAW in Pittsburgh, the March 23rd RAW in Los Angeles, WrestleMania 31 and then RAW the day after WrestleMania.

On a related note, it was reported this week that Lesnar flew to Nashville on his private jet but that's incorrect. Due to a stipulation in his contact, WWE always provides a jet to bring Lesnar from his home to the event he is needed at.

As noted, there is no truth to the story and not a single legitimate source has noted otherwise. While it’s still unclear what happened with Lesnar on Monday, the leading theory is that the champion is frustrated over his WrestleMania pay being taken from the dwindling pay-per-view buys.

The fact that they still don't know the new PPV payouts from their own ass astonishes me.
