using him in that crappy ecw show its no wonder he went to tna

its more like Vince forcing him out

Putting a guy with a history of neck problems (won the Olympic Gold medal with a broken neck) in Extreme rule matches??

with NWA-TNA at least Kurt can have a normal family life, now that he and his wife are sorting there problems. with WWE he would be on road 200 days a year minimum.

Wasn't gracie beaten for the first team ever recently? Or at least made to tap out for the first time ever.
Hadn't heard about him training Lesnar, but it's a bit odd. Gracie and his brothers were all about speed and takedowns, Lesnar is power, plain and simple.

I don't know, obviously Lesner's main attribute is his strength, but the guy is pretty quick for such a big man. As long as Lesner isn't rushed into fighting more experienced MMA fighters he'll do well there I think, if they do pull the trigger too quickly and put him up against the top guys he'll get slaughtered and would find it hard to regain his creditability
