Back in the day? I would've loved to have seen Brock vs HHH. Now? Nah.

As long as Triple H doesn't end up beating Brock in the end, I'm fine with a SummerSlam match between the two. In fact, give me HHH vs. Lesnar over the (supposedly) proposed Lesnar v. Orton any day of the week.

So apparently Brock threw a hissy fit last night back stage.

The original plan was for Cena to beat Brock, but then be stretchered out to keep Brock looking strong. Brock saw the promo he cut instead to be a double-cross and went ape-shit backstage, screaming at officials and destroying the backstage area.

Some more on Brock's temper tantrum backstage:

As seen on Monday's RAW, Brock Lesnar was written off television with his WWE contract status "up in the air" following the attack on Triple H. We reported on Monday that Brock Lesnar had a meltdown backstage after his loss to John Cena at Extreme Rules. Lesnar was said to be absolutely furious about John Cena's post-match promo - because the original plan was for John Cena to get stretchered out and look "totally incapacitated" to sell the beating he took from Lesnar during the match. Lesnar felt that he was made to look weak and WWE officials double crossed him.

WWE's new mentality with Lesnar, according to f4wonline.com, is that he's getting paid a ton of money to work a limited schedule - so he should be used to put over their top talents. People in Lesnar's camp were under the impression that WWE might have been testing Lesnar by changing plans without telling him and having Cena deliver the post-match speech to the live crowd.

Lesnar went nuts backstage in front of everyone, tearing things up and throwing a tantrum. Lesnar specifically yelled at Marc Carano, the assistant to John Laurinaitis, about how things are a mess and "everything is wrong" in WWE. Some felt that part of the tantrum was just an act by Lesnar to show to the locker room that he has more power than WWE and can walk away any time he wants.

During his backstage rampage, Lesnar also suggested that Cena intentionally pulled down the top rope at Extreme Rules, causing him to nearly blow out his knee in the bad spot towards the end of the match where they both tumbled out to the floor. Despite what Lesnar said about Cena pulling down the rope, Lesnar and Cena are believed to be on good terms and this could have also been Lesnar being overly dramatic and worked up.

Lesnar relationship with WWE remains complicated. WWE is going to have their hands full over the next year booking Lesnar due to his contract, which only requires limited appearances.

Following Lesnar's attack on Triple H, it appears WWE is building towards a match between the two at SummerSlam. After that, Lesnar will almost certainly work the remaining "big" pay-per-views (Survivor Series, Royal Rumble) leading up to WrestleMania 29, which is will be his final match with the company.

Wrestling's in a sad sorry place right now.

In WWE, wrestlers come and go because they get bored of doing another job. Makes WWE feel unimportant as a company when they can go "HEY LOOK WHO WE JUST BROUGHT BACK!...on a severely limited schedule BUT HE'S HERE!" while the wrestlers who are there every day fail to get over.

In TNA, wrestlers come and go because the roster is gigantic and the writing team doesn't always have storylines for them.

I gotta start watching more indies, or lucha, or puro, or something.

^ I've heard much differently.

Honestly, if there's any truth to the Brock Lesnar story (and there very well could not be), then we really shouldn't be so surprised. This is the same man who apparently bitched about having to drop the WWE title to Eddie Guerrero at No Way Out before he and Goldberg half-assed their last match at WrestleMania 20. Lesnar isn't exactly known for having the most positive attitude.

As far as the state of WWE goes, it reminds me a lot of Raw in 2002-2004. Triple H at the top of every show, always holding or near the world title, fighting mostly with older names like Michaels, Steiner, Goldberg, Nash, etc. while the midcard went absolutely nowhere.

I actually dissagree with that. WWE is really expirementing with new things. Sheamus and CM Punk are the World and WWE champions, and mind you Sheamus won the title and has been defending it against Daniel Bryan.

I also like how it seems that Daniel Bryan is one of the top guys.

CM Punk just told a fan to "Kill yourself" on twitter, when a fan disagreed with him about Gay Marriage.

Punk is a supporter of gay marriage.
