The booking of Brock Lesnar
So I guess apparently Brock Lesnar has been hard to deal with since he's returned. "Nuclear" heat even, or so I've heard. He's drawn less of an interested than they expected from him for the money they're paying him, allegedly. I don't want to talk about any of that, but rather what I feel the issue is: the booking of Brock Lesnar.
The night after WM was a hot night to bring him in, in my opinion, as the people tuning in to see the aftermath of Rock/ Cena or HiaC would likely see him and keep tuning in to see what was up. The issue arose when Ace completely forgot he was fueding with Punk, and not Cena. Another problem was "lets try to explain why Brock's only here on so many dates, but don't get too creative with it." To me, the best course of action would've been to put him in a fued with Punk. Would've used up less dates, as Ace could've announced it on Raw without Brock ever being there. Brock's first appearance would've been at Extreme Rules. Work the match much the same way, except Brock gets the win. Have him cut a promo afterward, instead of appearing on Raw soley for a promo. Have him state that he's only appearing on Raw when he feels like it, otherwise you can catch him every month defending the WWE title on pay per view. Brock looks a beast, CM Punk looks like he needs redemption. Ace can then hassle Punk about his rematch on Raw, but Punk says he isn't ready yet. Cue a Cena interruption for Over the Limit. For the rest of his dates have him appear sparsely on Raw 'via satellite' to promote his upcoming matches. Have him run through the upper card on PPV. Everyone wants to be the guy that knocks Brock off the mountain. Meanwhile Punk is busy proving to himself he's worthy of the moniker 'Best in the World,' with WWE having never let us forget he's still got a rematch (never happen, I know.) Finally at Mania you get the scrappy underdog who finally invoked his rematch clause against the unstoppable monster in a match for what has once again become the most important thing in the business: the WWE championship. Thoughts? How would you have booked Brock? |
