Did you guys want to see him be pushed so fast?

As for his heel run, I think it was great that he didnt talk, only sometimes. For example, when him and Heyman confronted the nWo.

IMO, his feud with The Rock makes me think that when the writers WANT to put on a good feud, they can. The summer of 2002 was very memorable during this time. And when he smeared Hogan's blood all over his chest was fucking awesome. I heard some people were offended by this

His feud with Taker was also the goods.

But then he turned face prematurely and lost the WWE Title from Big Show at Survivor Series. Terrible move. I hate it when WWE prematurely ejaculates.

His second feud with taker almost killed him.

yeah but they could've atleast played it off a little longer and milked him as a heel

They turned him face way too soon when they could've waited. His second heel run wasnt as good since they did the usual "Let's stick you with Vince to get heat" deal

I remember he had some sort of mystery to him (which is lacking is pro wrestling today) when he would just F5 people and not talk. He'd let Heyman talk for him. That was what was missing with characters today. Then when he said one line, it would be huge.

Then there was the adverts about training. The Rock would talk about his training. Then it was so off when Brock would go from big ass monster who barely talked, to talking about his workouts with the sticks, doing push ups after a chest workouts and taking ice baths. LOL.

yeah WTF were they think with Taker?

"Brock you'll cheat to beat taker......not only that but he'll almost win 2 times but Vince and the FBI saves your ass.

"After doing the steps with a log on my back I take an Ice bath cuz its mad fuckin Kinky"

I think the reason Brocks run in 2002 was preety successful for a rookie anyway is due to Mr Paul Heyman. His heel work was fantastic. No offense to Brock but Heyman was on fire during 2001-2002 as an onscreen personality. Anyone could have gotten over with Heyman by his side

Although Brock has not done much for the company he had an enigmatic persona which lacks in the wwe currently. Brock's success in 2002 is all due to his hardwork,desire and paul heyman.

No.

I didn't want to see him pushed so fast, and I certainly didn't want to see him as a face so soon. Though, I kind of did like his feud with Rock. Losing Paul Heyman as his mouthpiece kind of hurt him in a way.

Brock Lesnar was fucking awesome. A lot of people come up with reasons to hate him, but they're all non-wrestling reasons. Wow, he hates the internet, he's a rabid homophobe, and a greedy cock. Big deal, I just described traits of 90% of the roster. The guy was solid in-ring even as a rookie, showed potential most wrestlers would sell their testicles to get, and provided us with some great matches. My only complaint is they sent too much time having him talk. Some people need a manager for obvious reasons.

Lesnar/Rock feud was badass, and the videos were awesome.

Such a shame they didn't stay on course and go with unstoppable heel monster Lesnar Vs. Babyface Gold Medal Angle, and build it up in much the same way as Rock/Brock.

Heel Lesnar in 2003 was great in my opinion, with the exception of the Taker crap.

I didn't mind Lesner too much, I just think they did it all waayyyyy too fast. Sure he probably made them money really quick, but seriously, if he hadn't walked out, he'd peak by the age of like 30. There was really nothing left for him to do after he left. I think if he were still around, we'd all be talking about how much he sucks, how his gimmick is awful, and how he should die.

I liked him, but wasn't a huge fan of his giant immediate push. I loved him when he debuted and was one badass heel with Heyman. It's not that I stopped liking him, because I still did. He just got less badass to me. He just should not have talked as much. I mean he seems fairly quiet in real life, so why give him that much time on the mic?
