World Wrestling Entertainment’s Mixed Martial Arts Potential

Yes the spectre of 'worked' fights looms out there if the WWE org gets involved with a MMA promotion. Most serious MMA fans turn their noses up at wrestling entertainment, but both audiences are not mutually exclusive. See evidence of Brock Lesnar's recent fight in the UFC. The 3rd largest pay per view audience in UFC history. One problem that all start up leagues have is getting decent talent or developing new talent in such a way that UFC has done with its Ultimate Fighter Show. Can WWE produce legit fighters as a product and sell them to a generally cynical audience?
