Some people say bryan wouldn't be believable. Which is a completely stupid arguement, but i wont get into that right now. But reigns beating lesnar is even more unbelievable to me. Bryan has been slowly over the past few years to be a top guy. He went from nxt rookie to beating the wwe's top stars and every victory was believable, because they built him up right. Because of all that, and because of bryan's sheer talent in the ring, i can believe him barely squeaking out a victory.
Reigns doesn't have that history. He has had no feuds to build him him up on any signifigant level. He's not believable as a main event competitor, let alone as the guy to beat one of the most fearsome champs in wwe history.
Maybe in time he can be, but right now, bryan makes more sense and is by far the better story.

100 percent agree. All I can add is I know i feel this way, maybe others do too, that Reigns BUILD was started at the last rumble. He was meant to be built from there to the top. Then bad booking, stop starts, and injury slowed him from breaking out, and now we have him still here where they wanted him,
So forced. He was a great memeber of the Shield then all of a sudden MANIA MAIN EVENT. I try to compare it to Batista because I feel thats the mold they are using but even then, he started breaking away to "TOP THREAT" awhile before the rumble.
