I'm surpised that the WWE let them use that footage of Brock in the ring, seeing how the UFC is their biggest rival in PPV buyrates. Wonder how much they had to pay to use it?

Interesting they're showing WWE footage. I wonder if Vince charged them through the nose? I would have thought that they would have used his Japanese footage when he was IWGP champ. Big test for him.

Big test for him. | the WWE is more of a household name here in the States then IWGP that is prob why the used the footage. Trying to draw in the WWE fans that have yet to cross over to MMA. Trying to get the white trash Lesner marks at home watching Cops who see the commerical.

i believe that the WWE and the UFC have some kind of a business deal going on. see when movies like The Condemned and The Marine came out, they were being advertised on UFC's website and UFC PPVs. those are both WWE films. they may talk about competing to our faces, but they both realize they really can cooperate with each other and make some money together.
thus, Brock's footage gets to be used to hype the PPV.
