During the live broadcast of UFC 199 last night, the promotion aired a chilling video advertising July 9’s UFC 200 event. To everyone’s shock it featured Brock Lesnar.

Pretty much everyone had written off the former champion’s chances of ever fighting again. Even Joe Rogan and Mike Goldberg were shocked when they heard the news, a very well kept secret by the UFC indeed.
That said, they did permanently ban Ariel Helwani from attending UFC events for leaking the information before they had aired the video.
I was escorted out of the building by Zuffa staff before the main event. Credential taken away, too. Didn’t see Bisping realize his dream.
