And it is possible to lose a match and come out more over than you were before. All they have to do is wrestle is a very close match and have one wrestler pull out a surprise victory at the end. The loser is still the loser, but he looks good because he ran such a close race with the victor.
I do agree with you that it is entirely possible for somebody to lose a match without hurting them, and I would love to the WWE use Eddie in that scenerio against Brock.

But in this instance, having Brock squashing somebody was being discussed, which is why I was against Guerrero being used.

I also disagree with you that having Brock go over somebody like Hardcore does not help him. Beating just about anybody helps to build his charector, it increases his body count. With Goldberg's winning streak in WCW, a good amount of the guys he beat were jobbers, but the mere fact that he took on all comers, not just the same 3 or 4 other guys in the main event scene built him up more. Also, even if the fans don't buy Holly as a legit main eventer (which I don't know if most of them do), having Brock crush him with ease just proves how big of a gap there really is between a guy like Brock and the rest of the non-main eventers on the roster.
