At least when the Rock won it he defended it at every ppv until he lost, which was only 2, but I don't want to see a bunch of ppvs where the WWE title isn't defended because Brock Lesnar isn't working those dates. He really needs to lose it at Night of Champions.

Easy explanation: No one wants to get fucking murdered by Brock Lesnar.

He beat the shit out of Superman for twenty minutes and barely got scratched. You think Kofi Kingston or Dolph Ziggler want any of that action?

Nobody wants to wrestle Brock so HHH has to get his hands dirty

He's got enough dates I think to show up to each PPV. Not much else, but each PPV should be doable. I mean that's what, 6 or 7 till 'mania?

I don't think he has been working that many dates already, and it will be hard to build up any proper feud with him not being on raw.

WWE better have a serious undercard built up. I know I won't be renewing my network subscription until I see a good card built for Night of Champions

So if Bryan didn't get injured and still had the belt, would you have applauded this same booking of the match? Or is it just because everyone wanted to see Cena get destroyed...

In a way, I almost would have rather seen the quick ending with that 1st F5. It would have made the rematch epic. My guess, no rematch now.

Not even close to a fair comparison. Don't try and be a cool anti-IWC guy by pretending it is.

Cena has been booked as unbeatable and unstoppable for most of a decade. No matter how much punishment he takes, he never stays down for long.

Bryan was always booked as an underdog and barely scraping by.

Cena taking an almost uncomfortable beating is different and meaningful. I love Daniel Bryan, but if Brock Lesnar came out and beat the shit out of Bryan for 20 minutes, it would have felt like a Raw match and wouldn't have meant shit because forty other guys did it this year. Brock has insane momentum and buzz because he dismantled the one man that for the better part of a decade hasn't been put down cleanly, let alone absolutely demolished, by basically any one.

I was merely asking because I see this lovefest for Cena getting destroyed and we all know it should have been Bryan there. I was curious to see if the reaction would be the same. Just remember, Bryan was booked as pretty much getting screwed over every month for like half a year then he finally conquers The Authority by winning at WM. Brock conquers The Streak. Obviously, it would have been Brock/Bryan here and if it was in his contract to get the belt at some point this year (I'd bet on that), my guess is that we would have seen the same thing. Cena is just there because Bryan got injured. I'm fine with Brock winning, but a 20 min one sided beat down fight with no added stips or gimmicks was IMO not the best way to handle it. I can easily see it being the same thing if Bryan was in the match. That I would have hated very much.
