Mike Awesome in his prime or Brock Lesnar when he was a pro wrestler?
 
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.

Anybody Thrilla 05-06-2009 12:32 PM

Easily Lesnar on every level.

Hanso Amore 05-06-2009 12:40 PM

Awesome was shit outside of ECW booking. He was good, but not great.

Lesnar was the next big thing for a reason.

GD 05-06-2009 12:41 PM

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?

Xero 05-06-2009 01:48 PM

I'm not sure Theddy. Seems like a hung jury on that.

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

Mercury Bullet 05-06-2009 03:21 PM

If you ignore his WCW run its definitely Mike Awesome.

Chavo Classic 05-06-2009 03:40 PM

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.

Rammsteinmad 05-06-2009 05:58 PM

Brock Lesnar.

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

Fignuts 05-06-2009 06:57 PM

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.

Look it's a valid god damn question.

#1-norm-fan 05-07-2009 05:22 AM

Lesnar without a doubt.

Londoner 05-07-2009 05:54 AM

Lesnar.

Gertner 05-07-2009 01:55 PM

Mike Awesome.

Check out his FMW stuff.

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'.

TheHaunted 05-08-2009 06:17 AM

Lesnar.
:)

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

Impeccable 05-08-2009 08:40 AM

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.

Stealth-Icon 05-08-2009 01:55 PM

The Next Big Thing wins over Awesome.

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

Mr. Nerfect 05-09-2009 04:19 AM

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.

Destor 05-09-2009 04:52 AM

How this is even a question is insane. LESNAR.

The Optimist 05-10-2009 07:02 AM

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.
