From a few pages ago, but why do some of you want Brock to hold the title until Wrestlemania? That's horrifying, it would only get defended like 2-3 times for the next half of a year gently caress that

Put the title on someone injured like Bryan and you'd have the same loving result. Lesnar's run needs to be short or he needs to start doing real work.

Jesus! Jesus Christ! Say his name! Jesus! Jesus! Come down now!

Because there's no other heel contender who's ready and would put on good matches (and would draw). The Shield dudes still haven't quite built the momentum as singles performers to be at that level yet, though at least one of them will be by WM31. Brocklesnar is credible and if he sticks the belt in a freezer the month of HIAC I won't much care. As long as I'm not getting Orton-Cena I'm happy.

I hope that Brock wins and just keeps it off. HHH gets mad at that and after every attempt to stop Brock's reign fails, he personally goes into the Rumble and wins (Of course, the last person to be eliminated has to be Daniel Bryan, otherwise there's no point to any of the last year of WWE), and then HHH wins it at 'Mania.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

Brock defending the belt once every few months or so might be the only thing that starts making the belt worth anything again. If he was around more often...well, he still wouldn't be defending it, but you'd have "Brock Lesnar vs Randy Orton, non-title meaningless poo poo!" on every drat Raw.

I think the right thing to do is pay Lesnar to do enough dates to win the title and murder challengers once every 4-5 weeks until Wrestlemania. Heyman is more than enough to sell the matches. It gives you the opportunity to build some guys to challenge for the title that normally wouldn't as well.

Having Brock hold it for a long time would be beautiful. Just make him as hated as possible and blow the roof off when Bryan comes back to challenge for it. There would be so much money to be made off that.

I'm sad I missed this conversation because I had a recent discussion with a friend of mine who is a psychologist and we agreed there has to be a huge amount of people around my age (28) who were going through puberty during the most watched time in wrestling. Some of them HAD to sexually imprint on some of the weird poo poo that was going on at that time. There's probably more people with Stinkface fetishes than posts in this thread.

Undertaker/Brock II is something that could still be in the cards and would draw, so they could have Brock drop at the Rumble or something. Or more likely, Brock loses at Summerslam, since Brock beating Cena would make perfect sense so it's the thing they won't do.

Not only would Brock beating Cena make perfect sense, but having the guy who broke The Streak lose his first match afterwards and having Cena be the one to get that rub would be really loving stupid on every level and would ultimately hurt the future.

Of course John Cena is winning.

Then Seth Rollins cashes in, Cena gets up and delivers an AA and retrains.

Being serious, no matter any possible outcome, Rollins cashing in after that match is probably the worst thing that could happen.

Lesnar needs to win the title so that Reigns or Bryan can have a heel champion to win the belt from.

Although this could just mean that Cena wins at Summerslam and Lesnar beats him at Night of Champions instead.

From almost every logical and business perspective, Lesnar winning is the right answer, and what we really should want. Kids whose parents are paying for the Network will keep watching regardless, but I can definitely see subscriptions nosediving if CENA WINZ LOL.

But from a mark perspective, Brock Lesnar conquered The Undertaker's undefeated Streak at Wrestlemania, and I want John Cena to avenge that by killing Brock Lesnar, AAing Paul Heyman, and then sweeping us all into his powerful arms to tell us it's all gonna be okay.

I've said this and I'll say it again, Batista came back as Not-Daniel Bryan at the worst loving possible time it was to be Not-Daniel Bryan. He was rusty but I don't think people outside of places like PSP would've given as much of a poo poo if he was doing anything but scheduled to be a big returning world champ when the fans wanted to see Bryan finally put Triple H in his place and get a real run the with title.

Guardians of the Galaxy was great, by the way.

Why the gently caress was the first thing Batista did upon returning was shake Triple H's hand?!

As much as I like the idea of Trips getting the title again, I am 99% sure it isn't going to happen at this point. He has failed me enough recently. I am just holding out for another Evolution reunion down the line now
