Can I like this 45056876327890 squared times? Only thing I'd argue is him having more potential then Wyatt. I think both could very easily be main eventers without much trouble.
Re: 2015 WWE Battleground
Why do people assume a wrestler's career is over after a scripted loss or two?
Re: 2015 WWE Battleground
They won't even show the curb stomp with the recap, lol
Re: 2015 WWE Battleground
So, what are the odds Heyman turns on Lesnar tonight?

his career is not over, but is he relevant right now? hes just a guy who lost to cena twice. much like wyatt, much like rusev, much like whoever cesaro, much like whoever else. his career is not dead, but its gonna take work to make him world champion relevant again. meanwhile, last week, if i told you lesnar vs owens was the summerslam main event, you and me would be handing vince mcmahon our money.

im in. its a lot more logical than undertaker coming out for no reason. heyman selling it as "im hitching myself to the newest big thing in wrestling".

Re: 2015 WWE Battleground
This should be interesting. I don't see where/how Rollins leaves with the belt... but can WWE afford it to NOT be on tv again for 3 months?
Re: 2015 WWE Battleground
"take a good look seth, it could be the last time you see that belt"
that sells the screwy finish allowing seth to retain

And Owens tapping out to the STF makes me not excited about that main event anymore if it were to happen?
Re: 2015 WWE Battleground
im fairly certain brock tells his opponents to hit him for real with punches/elbows. hold back a little of course, but make contact.

how do you sell that main event now? the only main event if lesnar beats rollins clean is lesnar vs cena. theres no one else left, cenas laid on top of everyone else for 3 seconds.
Re: 2015 WWE Battleground
Lesnar is just a genetic freak its scary.

Well, I highly doubt that would be the main event whether or not he beat Cena tonight.
But if they booked it then they can sell it. Him losing to Cena has no bearing on it.
Cesaro isn't where he is now because he lost to Cena a few times. He's where he is because they never followed it up with competent booking. Same with Wyatt.
