Kongo back in action, he'll most likely win and then look into the camera and ask where is title shot is. I guess I can't blame him, he's been winning for a while.

After his loss to Heath Herring, he's not in the title contention for a while until he can beat some big name guys.
Styles: JKD, Small Circle JiuJitsu, Catch Wrestling, Jhoon Rhee TKD

You can usually tell who the UFC is pushing for title shots by how much "pub" they get during the shows. My guess is that they prefer Shane Carwin as the next heavyweight contender, to fight the loser of Mir vs. Lesnar II perhaps... unless they really want to "milk" this tourney business and fight the loser of Mir/Lesnar vs. Nog.

Ditto on that. You would think that, if they're going to charge you $50 freakin' dollars for the pay-per-view, they'd go ahead and show the prelims, too.
