Besides, you've got to get Cormier in, you've got to get Brock to agree to premise, then you've got the belt on a dude who has never trained for pro-wrestling and basically said that anyone can walk in from the UFC, 80lbs lighter than our champ and take the belt. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't ever need to come to that. Even if Brock decided he wanted to take his ball and go home or whatever, you can always just announce a tournament for a new champion, or just forget the Universal Title ever existed.
Nah, Cormier is an Olympic level wrestler who was originally a heavyweight (won the Strikeforce Heavyweight Grand Prix by rag-dolling legit heavyweights) but went down to 205 pounds because his friend Cain Velasquez fights at heavyweight.

I can legit see Cormier in the WWE. He's a HUGE fan, charismatic and it seems that the WWE is where big-name UFC fighters go to retire.
