Mark Hunt accuses UFC of insider knowledge:

Brock Lesnar's vanquished opponent says he has the feeling that UFC knew he was doping, before the fight...

"What upsets me about that is, I'm just thinking maybe they knew. Did they know about this? Is that why they're not doing anything about it? Did they give this (expletive) fool an exemption for four months because they knew about this? Because surely if they know about this, they don't give a rat's about any of us. 'Hey man, we'll let this juiced up freaking monkey go in here and fight with this guy.' I mean, shucks, people say I should have a rematch with him. I wouldn't want to waste my time with that. He's rubbish."

WWE business:

WWE have reported record figures for their second quarter of the financial year. Despite this the sale of UFC has made top officials sit up and take notice, and they would not rule out considering a sale of WWE, if the right proposition was made...

Flair discusses brain damage lawsuit vs WWE:

"I think it's bad for the image of the company and I don't think it's good, personally, for the image of the individuals doing it. I think it's unrealistic. I feel bad. And I'm saying this out loud, I feel bad for the guys that are doing this because we've all put ourselves on the line. That's what we did for a living. Nobody twisted our arm. Does that make sense? So it was something we did and it's something that happens and I just think that sometimes hard times can cause you to make bad decisions."

This comes on the day WWE were granted permission to file counter suits against the 53 talents taking them to court, four of which can be against individuals.
