Thought of the Day: The Legend of Brock Lesnar
As you may have heard, Paul Heyman’s client Brock Lesnar conquered the Undertaker’s Streak at Wrestlemania, becoming the 1 in 21-1. Since then, Brock has been seen once on WWE TV and…..That is the most brilliant thing WWE could have done with him. For the last three months, Paul Heyman has reminded us of Brock Lesnar. We’ve heard of him doing the impossible and being the monster that even the Undertaker couldn’t stop. As time has gone on, that’s the image that people have gotten in their heads: Brock Lesnar as an unstoppable beast that destroyed the Undertaker without breaking a sweat, instead of Brock Lesnar having a war with Undertaker and barely beating him. The longer you know that he’s lurking, the bigger an impact his return makes. They’re building up his mystique and that’s the best thing they could have done.

Speaking of Lesnar, I just rewatched his match with Cena at Extreme Rules. Two things: Lesnar absolutely should have won that match, the more I watch it the less I like Cena’s fluke win finish. Also, Lesnar licking Cena’s blood off his glove is gold.
Totally agree. Brock returning and winning the belt will be awesome, though I’m interested in how long his reign will be. He needs to hold the belt until Mania to build the next star like a Roman Reigns but I’m worried that with his limited dates he might have to win and drop the belt multiple times in a short period of time.
Too bad The Legend of Brock Lesnar had to endure The Ego of Triple H.
And it looks like he’s main eventing Summerslam with Cena, with the post we have of the event.
