Lesnar defends the title against Triple-H at SummerSlam and retains. Right before Survivor Series, Cena returns to take Lesnar out. That show will sell some buys.

This is a good idea, but then what?
Lesnar needs to look strong going into WrestleMania if his match is going to be billed as the top draw on the card. If he's going into Mania to face The Rock, he can't have suffered a loss to Cena because that takes away part of the hype: Rock already beat Cena, Cena beat Lesnar, Rock's going to beat Lesnar. It's possible that they could have Cena beat Lesnar before Mania and still have Brock look strong, but after his first loss he's going to be looked at as having lost his steam.
Right now he's on fire. After he beats Cena silly at Extreme Rules, he's going to be even bigger. They need to keep this going all the way into Mania. Make him the big time heel that WWE has lacked for so, so, so many years. Lesnar is capable of being that guy, but they can't beat him until Mania.
I say keep him strong going into WrestleMania 29, maybe even put the WWE Championship on him (although the thought of Brock going over Punk kills me inside). He goes on to face Taker or Rock at Mania, and loses, and then goes away again.
I like the idea of Brock facing Rock and losing at Mania, and then Cena beating Rock sometime over the next year to regain his spot as the #1 guy in the WWE.
