The UFC 300 main event is still something that the fight fans are eagerly awaiting word on. However, Michael Bisping, the former middleweight champion, has hinted that a widely anticipated card might feature an unexpected fight. Bisping is suggesting that the UFC 300 will be the ideal destination for the former WWE, UFC and IWGP Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar to make his return to the mixed martial arts promotion. "The Count" also advocated for a match between Lesnar and Aspinall. While speaking on his YouTube channel, Michael Bisping said:

"UFC 300, will we see Brock Lesnar on there again. It sounds stupid, because Brock Lesnar is no spring chicken, right? He’s 46 years old…Fighters have gone longer, and guess what? When there’s millions of dollars on the line, people will come and fight. And people would love to see Brock Lesnar stepping in there once again.”

“Could you imagine Brock Lesnar vs. Tom Aspinall headlining UFC 300?... Maybe this is just the fan in me, maybe this is just wishful thinking. But Tom Aspinall [versus] Brock Lesnar, that would just be mental. And that is the type of thing I think the UFC are gonna do,” Bisping added.

While it may seem like Brock Lesnar has closed his MMA Chapter, an appearance during the UFC's premier event cannot be ruled out. Moreover, given the fact that UFC and WWE are now under the same parent company, the contractual situation will not be much of an issue.
