Two powerhouses that could fly. Who is better and why do you think so?
Went with Lesnar only because I'm a mark for him and enjoyed him a lot more. Mike Awesome is the better wrestler, though.

Awesome was shit outside of ECW booking. He was good, but not great.
Lesnar was the next big thing for a reason.
I have followed Brock's entire career so I would go with him. FTR, Mike was truly awesome and his match at ONS was 5 star quality.

Is it better to burn out or fade away?
I'm not sure Theddy. Seems like a hung jury on that.
Easily Lesnar on every level.

Im a big Mike Awesome fan. Lesnar never had to do a fat chick thriller gimmick or a lame 70's gimmick.

If you ignore his WCW run its definitely Mike Awesome.

Awesome was totally dominant in ECW. Had Lesnar been booked in the same way, this wouldn't even be a competition.

Lesnar without question. Awesome best work in ECW doesn't compare to Brock.

Brock Lesnar.
Mike Awesome was amazing, but Lesnar just generally was more fun to watch and had some great matches with pretty much everyone.

Lesnar by miles.
Come on, this shouldn't even be a question.
Take away hardcore rules, and awesome is good, but not great. And even Vince McMahon looks good in hardcore rules. Lesnar is great no matter what.

Is it better to tattoo a penis on your chest or hang yourself?
Look it's a valid god damn question.

Brock Lesnar did not have that tattoo when he was a pro wrestler, and I doubt Mike Awesome hanging himself would be considered his 'prime'.

I'm pretty sure he did. I recall seeing it on a magazine cover when he was working for New Japan.

Why did Brock actually leave WWE anyway?
And then end up turning out for Japanese promotions?

Ah, fair point. I was just thinking of his WWE tenure.

The Next Big Thing wins over Awesome.

Stressed out over the travelling. Hated being on the road and being in the public spotlight basically.

I've seen more Brock Lesnar than Mike Awesome, but I cannot for the life of me think of one thing Mike Awesome had over Brock Lesnar as a performer.

Voted for Awesome because I am tired and thought that "Brock Lesnar" meant "Bobby Lashley" for some reason.
I love Mike Awesome and I wasn't watching wrestling when Lesnar was around at all, but still I understand what Lesnar was doing was landmark.
