WWE.com claiming that Brock Lesnar has pulled out of talks with WWE

The following statement was just issued on WWE.com:

"After verbally agreeing to terms with WWE, Brock Lesnar has decided to withdraw from any involvement with the company."

It is no secret that Lesnar's current lawsuit against World Wrestling Entertainment is still ongoing as reported on heavily in the last few days. Even with that being said, some already feel this new "statement" smells of a storyline being planted via WWE's official website, which is something of a new trend that has started this past month on the site. Either way, we will keep everyone posted on this developing situation.

Update: To further what we said earlier, WWE.com just added this to the story: "Check back here for more on this developing story."
