I agree with this for the most part.

Have Lesnar be the main 'alpha' at all/most PPV's for the next two years as the WWE transitions.

Lesnar working twice a month benefits the WWE in 3 ways:

1) Keeps Lesnar consistently relevant to the storylines and title picture.

2) By only making two appearances per month, Lesnar will likely not be
susceptible to serious injuries like Rollins, Orton, Cena, etc. were.

3) Prevents "unworthy" wrestlers being pushed into the main-event scene. That's one of my biggest pet peeves in the WWE. The WWE has a horrible habbit of pushing unworthy guys into the main-event scene (and even giving them the title), rather than building said wrestler organically and letting said wrestler spend more time in the mid-card (and in effect, making the mid-card titles worth more).

Since only a few guys are really capable of working with Lesnar, Lesnar's consistent presence in the main-event should force the WWE to be more selective as to who they elevate.
