Brock Lesnar was ridiculed and subsequently dismissed by co-host Suzy Kolber with the remark: "He's got it backwards;
Aren't ex-NFL players supposed to give wrestling a try after their careers?"
ESPN analysts were quick to note that Lesnar left his WWE position due to all of the time spent on the road and the physical
injuries that hampered his in-ring career. "I liked the money, the experience, but I didn't like the pain" says
Lesnar. "I wish that I didn't take that path (professional wrestling),... but now I know that this (the NFL0, is the
path that I want to take."

"He's a great guy, a great athlete," WWE spokesman Gary Davis said. "He made his mark and had quite an
accomplished run. Who knows? Once he has pursued his
dream of the NFL, maybe he'll want to do something with the WWE again.
"Brock is a guy with great ambition," said tackle Chris Hovan, who is rooming with Lesnar during camp. "Any
chance he needs to get better, I'll help."
Lesnar insists this isn't a publicity stunt. Then-Tampa Bay coach Tony Dungy expressed interest in Lesnar after his college
career was over, according to one of Lesnar's agents, Ed Hitchcock.

Brock Lesnar Injured In Motorcycle Accident
April 19, 2004 - Source: 1wrestling
Brock Lesnar was injured in a motorcycle accident yesterday as his bike collided with a minivan according to twincities.com.
Apparently Lesnar was taken to the hospital and stitched up and was released as glass had to be removed from his forehead.
His agent claims that it will not cost him anytime as he continues to tryout for NFL teams.
He sustained a pulled groin, bruised pelvis, broken jaw and broken left hand in the accident.
Lesnar's college wrestling coach also told the Star Tribune that he doesn't put any stock in the rumour as Lesnar has expressed
an interest in a football career before but never explored the option.
"He's making millions in wrestling; he just bought a plane," Gophers wrestling coach J Robinson said. "What
would you do? Give it all up with no guarantee of making it in the NFL? I think they're trying to hype WrestleMania."
