royal rumble As noted, WWE World Champion Brock Lesnar attended last night’s UFC 184 event, and was seating ringside with UFC President Dana White.

UFC Vice President of Public Relations Dave Sholler noted on Twitter that Lesnar was backstage hyping up fighter Tony Ferguson before his fight at 184:

Watched Brock pump Ferguson up backstage. If you recall, Brock coached Tony on TUF. Tony shocked to see him. Then goes out & dominates! Wow!

Following the 184 event, during a post-fight press conference, White was asked by Ariel Helwani if Brock Lesnar is returning to UFC, and White repeated a comment he made earlier in the day at the 187 press event in Las Vegas:

“I don’t know,” White said. “He’s under contract to WWE. When his WWE contract is up, I’m sure he will call me.”

When asked what he and Lesnar spoke about, White said it was about last night’s fights, but teased that Brock did ask whether fighter Frank Mir, who Lesnar had fought in UFC, did say he wanted to fight Brock again.

Below is video footage of the post-fight press conference, and the Lesnar talk begins at around the 3:20 mark:
