Brock Lesnar’s walkout dominates WWE News Roundup today
Former WWE Manager Dutch Mantel shared his views on why Brock Lesnar may have walked out during the SmackDown episode. He felt Brock would have made some extra cash out of it. Speaking on Smack Talk, Mantel said:
“I think Brock may have made himself a million dollars. And he said, ‘Hey, if you can pay one of those women millions of dollars, hey, I’ll come back for a million bucks.’ I don’t know what he made, but he got something out of it because right at the end of the show, he was back.”
