Brock Lesnar

that is all.

Spoiler alert.



He's expected to return very soon. Very, very soon.

There are a lot of rumours going around that he is intending on returning to the Octagon too:

Did he turn up at UFC 168? (or whatever number they are on)

I don't want him to return with Heyman, I want him to return like he did when he kicked the carp out of Cena at Extreme Rules, he cut the promo, that he wasn't a wrestler, he was an a$$ kicker..... when he was with Heyman he was a little more of a cowardly heel in my opinion still hard as nails but cried to Heyman too much

Yeah i couldn't agree more Jai.

I've never been a massive fan of Paul Heyman, and the way he says Brock Lesnar gets on my nerves lol .... I know loads of folks rate him but i'm not one of em

BRAAAAAAAAAAWWWWKK LESSSSSNAAAAAAAAWWWWWW!!!!!

Paul, say something stupid!

That F5!

Great to see him back, but i didn't like the handshake with HHH. Also Mark Henry was a stupid superstar to use, should of been Ryback imo.

Mark Henry means more than Ryback though so maybe that was their thinking too

I like his screams.

It's better, a lot better, to do it to an old hand and a face like Henry rather than younger and a heel like Ryback. Thought it was excellent and continues the perfect use of Lesnar

Love Lesnar, guy brings a whole new dimension to the product. Can't wait for him to get involved in the title picture. Maybe have him come out when whoever wins out of Cena and Orton and f5 them to start the feud. Have him dominate everyone with the title and then have Punk/Bryan go over him at Mania

Does he really need Heyman? He speaks pretty well himself now despite the odd stumble over his words while Heyman is just an irritant.

Looks like he's lost a bit of weight too.

Not sure if this is going to turn into a proper feud but would be great if it did. A very interesting real sporting dynamic with Henry's strength accomplishments against Lesnar's fighting ones.

Thought that the segment was really well done bar Brock being asked to speak as much as he did. It always ruins things and his words need to be kept to an absolute minimum.

I would guess that Cena, Punk and Taker are the three potentials for WrestleMania...

This is Taker's last appearance at Mania isn't it?

Would doubt that - I can see him continuing for a number of years. Certainly hasn't been a drop off in the standard/quality of his matches

Punk Lesnar is the one that makes sense, although the Punk - Heyman feud has ended now, so it wouldnt make much sense for Heyman to just turn up with Lesnar.

I know that there are rumours going round that Taker thinks this might be his last Mania, and that he wants the streak to be ended. Whether they're true or not, we'll soon see, but I hope that it isn't Brock that ends if so!

If it is too end, it certainly shouldn't be by a part timer.

i think id be disappointed if anybody other than Daniel Bryan/Shield member/Cesaro/Wyatt were to take the streak

it needs to be used to raise a guy up not decorate a part timer

thankfully i think Taker realises this as rumour has it he originally offered Orton the streak to make him a made man

Also id be happy for Punk to take it but not as much as i would those others named

I think it needs to be someone who has never attempted to take the Streak. Purely because Id rather see a guy take it clean on their first attempt, than the second attempt.

He's offered it to almost the full locker room.

The streak should go to someone new who can build their career off it, someone that it wouldn't phase. I would go with one of the Shield boys, preferably Ambrose. Logically 'Taker should come back against one of those since they took him out and the WWE do keep banging on about it.

I have to say I really don't understand the logic of giving the streak to someone to 'build their career'. The very fact that you are in the Wrestlemania match with The Undertaker nowadays means that you have already been built to a certain extent and taking the streak won't mean a jot if they aren't booked correctly afterwards. Chris Jerichos Undisputed title win meant very little in respect of furthering him up the card. He was upper-midcard/occasional main eventer before it and that's exactly what he was seen as following it.
 
So if they are booked correctly before the streak match and booked correctly after it then they will have an extended period of being built up correctly so the need for them to take the streak is not really required.
 
Essentially what I saying in a rather long-winded way is that one night or event does not get someone over or build them up - it needs to be done over a sustained period.
 
The only reason I see for someone taking the streak now is for a major storyline i.e. Cena turning heel.

I've said before I think HBK was the only choice to give the streak to. Argueably the greatest to set foot in the ring, it was the only thing he hadnt done. That and both matches, especially number 2, were booked brilliantly.

Using it to boost someones career could be a swing and a miss. A couple of years ago Wade Barrett was being touted as the next big thing and could possibly take to streak to get a huge boost, and look where he is now. I wouldnt take the risk, the streak is TOO big.

And more so giving an up and comer the streak means that they are immediately elevated someone into the realms of the Flairs, HHH, HBK, Undertaker himself and there is no guarantee they could have a 1/4 of the career those guys have had.

If as a result of that they then play down the achievement in commentary, Takers last match, age etc then it would devalue the streak and all it has stood for for the last 22 years.

If anyone is to take the streak IMO it should be Bray Wyatt.
