The Lesnar/Show title change at Survivor Series 2002 always baffled me. You build up Brock from early that year on to capture his 1st WWE Championship against Rock, and only gets ~3 months before dropping it to Big Show? I have more mixed feelings regarding the Show heel turn and him and Heyman swerving Lesnar and the fans. Show has always struck mebas a guy that never should've been turned face to begin with, because what's not to love about an angry 7', 500lb. tank wreaking havoc on everything and everyone? But then again it was nice to see him go back to doing that however temporary it may have been. I can't remember the exact length of time, but they've turned big guys like him and Kane and Mark so much that I almost can't even buy it when they do turn any of those guys one way or another.

The change was basically a way to turn Brock Lesnar face (since he was being cheered anyway). The story had been built with Heyman trying to steer Brock away from tough title matches against The Undertaker ("You can't beat him, Brock!"). When Brock beat The Undertaker (twice, and one of those times in the Cell, I believe), Brock proved that he was even better than Heyman thought. When Big Show came a-calling, Heyman told Brock "He's too big! You can't F5 him!". Brock would prove Heyman wrong, but Paul, being a wormy heel that had to be right, had insured that the monster he was losing control of would learn a lesson in humility.

The WWE Title would then be transitioned to Kurt Angle at Armageddon the month after, and Brock Lesnar would win the 2003 Royal Rumble, and their match was the true main event of WrestleMania XIX. It all made sense to me at the time.
