WWE Universal Champion Brock Lesnar is slated to make his next title defense against Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 35.
The UFC has been trying to book Lesnar against UFC Heavyweight Champion Daniel Cormier since last summer. During Saturday’s UFC Nashville event, Cormier teased appearing at WrestleMania to confront Lesnar.
”I don’t have a fight exactly scheduled yet, but I got my eyes on Brock Lesnar. I may go to the WWE WrestleMania, and I may go cost him his title over there so he can hurry up and get to the UFC so I can beat him here.”
