Brock Lesnar, who wrestled as “The Next Big Thing’ has settled a February 2005 lawsuit against the WWE. Lesnar signed a non-compete contract in 2004, which restricted him from working in sports entertainment till 2010. He filed a lawsuit in federal court in Connecticut, asking that the contract be declared unenforceable. The WWE asked the court to prohibit him from working as a wrestler or ultimate fighter anywhere in the world. While details of the settlement were not available, Lesnar’s lawyer said that it would allow the wrestler to pursue new ventures while still in his athletic prime.
