I suppose Vince' money for what amounts to a 1 year contract, with two TV appearances a month*, was too good to pass up.

As for Mr. Rocky going after the WWE title, oh come on I love that. Imagine a promo duel between him and Punk? "Whoopee you beat Cena at a PPV. I beat him too. Twice!"

*=If the smark reports are accurate, if WWE wants Brock to appear on TV more than twice a month, they have to negotiate with him, i.e. pay more per extra date. Shit I can see why Brock signed that contract.

EDIT - oh and YES! YES! YES! YES!
