it was a story line with Kurt Angle about some kind of open challenge; they werent serious. However, the UFC said they'll be pushing it publicly, if it happens again, to get a WWE wrestler in the octagon...but dont hold your breath.

it happened again tonigh on TNA when Rhino challenged anyone in a 4, 6, or 8 sided ring. i don't know the point. like do they think they're punking out MMA guys? i'd like to see a couple people in pro wrestling do MMA, not that i think they'll be great but it'd be interesting.

It would never, ever happen. Vince Mcmahon wouldn't risk the health of one of his wrestlers in this manner.

Well Brock Lesnar's supposedly starting an MMA career. 
At least Angle's got some grappling experience. He'd have a chance. I'd only watch if this guy got in the ring   | |

Lesnar's not under contract, or at least isn't actively wrestling for Vince.
I'm curious to see how Lesnar might do in MMA, though. He's extremely strong, and fast.
