Cain Velasquez will make his in-ring WWE debut at Crown Jewel later this month when he challenges Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship. Both men are former UFC fighters and Champions. In fact, Velasquez destroyed Lesnar during their 2010 fight for the UFC Heavyweight Championship. The referee stopped the fight in the first round with Lesnar already bloody and battered.

WWE have provided no details on Velasquez's contract situation with the company. However, we got some details from a pretty reliable source, Velasquez himself. Velasquez was asked by Adam Glyn about his contract situation with the WWE and revealed some details we hadn't heard before:

"Yeah, I'll be here for the next 3 years for sure. And as I get better and better as I'm going to keep doing this. I love it, so I'm going to keep doing it. Yep." h/t Credit: WrestlingInc

Let's hope that WWE confirm these details soon.
