Brock Lesnar Bidding War Publicly Kicks Off After Bellator President Scott Coker Speaks Out

December 26, 2014

The three main parties involved in the war will likely be WWE, who will seek to retain Lesnar, UFC, who is interested in a Brock Lesnar return, and UFC’s competitor Bellator.

Bellator President Scott Coker has indeed confirmed to MMAFighting.com that the promotion has reached out to Brock Lesnar. Coker was sure to note there haven’t been any formal negotiations, as Lesnar remains under contract to WWE, but the reach out was more of Bellator’s way of “saying hello” to let Lesnar know the promotion is interested in signing him.

“There hasn’t been any serious dialogue,” Coker said. “But when the time comes to have serious dialogue, we’ll be right there.”
