With UFC 200 on the immediate horizon, Breen and Bixenspan renew their ongoing discussion of the bizarre relationship between MMA and pro-wrestling by offering a unique character sketch of Brock Lesnar. The two ask and address several questions about Lesnar's unique personality and history: how did Lesnar end up marrying Rena “Sable” Mero? What does a miserly multimillionaire who lives an ascetic lifestyle do with his money? How strange is it that him and Shane Carwin feuded over who had larger hands? Is his UFC 100 postfight interview after beating Frank Mir the best promo in MMA history?
Breen and Bixenspan also discuss MMA and pro-wrestling's similar-but-different takes on popular local athletes who can sell tickets, a surprising cameo by pro-wrestling journalist Bill Apter on the Sherdog Radio Network and even the surreal “Final Deletion” angle featuring Matt and Jeff Hardy.
