Backstage Update - The Undertaker-Brock Lesnar Confrontation

No one seems to have a definitive answer in regards to the post-fight confrontation between The Undertaker and Brock Lesnar at last nights UFC 121 PPV in Anaheim, CA.

As you all know by now, the confrontation was captured during an interview that Ariel Helwani was conducting with Undertaker as Lesnar walked by. UFC President Dana White didn't have an answer for the confrontation either when asked by Helwani as well. 'Taker also kept quiet when asked about it backstage and simply kept stating that it 'was personal'.

We can report that according to one reliable source in WWE, there was heavy discussion within WWE about wanting to book Undertaker vs. Lesnar for Wrestlemania 27 in a "streak vs. UFC title" type match. Of course this would not be possible due to Lesnar's contract with UFC, unless some kind of a rare deal was made. Also, nothing had been confirmed and it had only been talked about within WWE.

Either way, the confrontation caught many off guard and more questions still remain. We'll keep you posted as we get more.
