This isn't the same as the Bret-HBK deal, because Bret had a clause that said he could have say over his last 30 days in the comapny. I still maintain he should have jobbed, but I understand why he didn't.

I think it was KK who basically said that some of the wrestlers know more than the people making the decisions, and I have to say I agree totally.

In terms of how Brock was pushed, he was pushed just fine, only problem was when he got hurt and had to JOB the title, and then prior when they added the second world title, but up to that point he was booked fine. Its only been over the past few months that they've had him show weakness, which is against his character. And really was done at the worst time going into this match with Goldberg.

And you cant compare him to The Rock, because again The Rock is a different type of guy, he wasn't built as being unstoppable, wehereas Lesnar was. In theory its good to have a guy like Lesnar because then it becomes special when someone finally takes him down.

In terms of the Eddie deal, that finish had nothing to do with Eddie, it was done just so they could continue the Brock-Goldberg deal for Mania.

Down the line, they should be building to an eventual rematch betrween Brock and Eddie, where Brock says 'okay Eddie you took my title, but you had help, and now I want my rematch'. With the fans being behind Eddie, in theory this should be almost like Hogan vs Andre (obviously not nearly on that level, but in terms of having to topple the big unstoppable challenger), and then at that point if Eddie is still over enough, you give him the big clean win. In theory that would be a big feather in Eddie's cap, and if promoted right, should do good business.

However, if you feed Brock to Taker, and Taker totally no-sells everything Brock throws at him (which is what would happen with the Deadman Undertaker gimmick) then Brock looks like an average guy, which means he wont draw any money and wont have any value in putting others over.

I know this is repetitive but I think if something is right for business, the guys should speak up and take action. A guy like Bob Holly has no value so therefore he has nothing to complain about in terms of JOBs, but a guy like Lesnar should be willing to speak up when the company is making a stupid decision with a key piece of talent like Brock is.
