    Abdullah the Butcher would be an awesome DT.

    If Abdullah was not going to turn 70 next season then he would really be the answer.

    Lesnar wants back in the ring

    Lesnar pursuing return to wrestling

    BY MIKE MOONEYHAM
    Of The Post and Courier Staff



    Brock Lesnar, who abandoned a lucrative pro wrestling career to pursue a long-shot dream in the NFL, has come full circle.

    The 6-3, 295-pound three-time WWE heavyweight champion last week filed a lawsuit against his former employer. The suit, filed in a Bridgeport, Conn., federal court, claims the company has prevented him from earning a living in his chosen field due to a no-compete clause he agreed to last year when WWE offered to give him an early contract release. The worldwide clause prevents Lesnar from working for any professional wrestling or professional fighting promotions. The contract doesn't expire until June 30, 2010.

    Lesnar, who is preparing for his spring marriage to Rena Mero, the former WWE diva and Playboy centerfold known as Sable, decided nearly a year ago that he didn't want to wrestle in WWE anymore, largely because of the grueling travel schedule, but instead wanted to pursue his dream of becoming a professional football player. While making the preseason squad for the Minnesota Vikings, Lesnar was cut before the end of the season and was not retained on the practice squad. The former NCAA heavyweight champion at the University of Minnesota opted not to play for the Arena Football League or NFL Europe where he could gain the necessary football experience he lacked.

    In recent weeks the 27-year-old Lesnar has contacted WWE about a possible return, but his calls reportedly have gone unanswered, with WWE officials privately saying that his demands are unreasonable. A number of WWE performers, including heavyweight champion Triple H (Paul Levesque), have stated publicly that Lesnar would not be welcomed back with open arms due to his abrupt departure. Lesnar also hurt his chances for a smooth return with his critical remarks about the business shortly after leaving.

    Lesnar's suit asks that the court declare the agreement void because it is "overly broad, unreasonable, oppressive, unfair and inequitable," according to a report in the Connecticut Post newspaper.

    WWE head legal counsel Jerry McDevitt, arguing that the company invested considerable money and time into promoting him as a star, said the company will fight the suit.

    Lesnar was 22 when he first signed with WWE in June 2000. Billed as "The Next Big Thing," he became the youngest world champion in company history when he defeated The Rock in 2002.
