There is an hour long show on Showtime then the rest of the card is on PPV.

No not quite. Brock gave his notice that he wanted to leave and try football so Vince let him go with the understanding that he was still under contract and could come back. Brock and Goldberg fought in both of their last match for WWE at one of the Wrestlemanias, forget which one it was. Both their efforts were terrible in that match and the crowd let them know it since everyone knew they were both gone. Later, he filed a lawsuit against the WWE to try to get out of his contract/no compete clause after the football thing didn't work out which is where the really hard feelings came from since he was still technically under contract to the WWE, he could not work for any similar type (wrestling, MMA) sport because of a non compete clause.

Since I am a huge Undertaker fan (wish Sideshow made a FS of him), I am biased in that regard. But I do indeed recognize the MITB match was every bit as entertaining if not more so than the Undertaker vs. Batista match. There was some crazy stuff that went on in there. I actually thought CM Punk was gonna win it for a sec.

I still have not SEEN WM 23, but I have heard good stuff about the MITB match, the UD/BAtista match, and the MVP/Benoit Match as well.

Actually, your'e partially right. He did walk away from his contract, but he performed his last match against Goldberg..can't remember which PPV it was. It was a terrible match and the crowd booed the crap outta both of them..(Goldberg was quitting too) Lesnar finished the match, getting pinned by Goldberg and that was it for both of them.

Here is a recent interview with Lesnar. The most interesting thing is he only has a one fight contract with K1 then he can sign anywhere.
