Are you actually going to enjoy Brock as champion?

I'll have to wait and see how it goes. I'm against part timers being champion, unless they stick around.

I could care less who wins, as long as this is Cena's LAST title reign.

Yeah, but during the 80's, there wasnt Raw everyweek and a PPV every months. You cant compare that to the situation now.

That was then, this is now, things change. People expect to see them at every show now.    

If you're not going to enjoy it you're just trying to be smart. Not everything is about 'pushing stars for the future'. Right now there isn't any other logical or viable option. It's Brock Lesnar. Enjoy it while it lasts.

They had Prime Time Wrestling, Superstars of Wrestling and Wrestling Challenge every week and all three were treated like major shows because you got to see the stars plus Saturday Night's Main Event every month or two which were basically 90 minute Pay-Per-Views broadcast on free TV and Hogan was on a hell of a lot of those so yeah, the comparison is valid.

We could all benefit from it being a special occasion when the world champion is on TV instead of having the guy overexposed by appearing every single week.

the problems with Lesnar are not just because he's a part timer

this isn't 1987. the world moves faster now. no one wants to wait 6 months to see a title defense in wrestling. it hasnt been that way since most of us were little and/or not even born. people want to talk about RIGHT NOW....not 6 months from now. or 3 months, whatever, pick a length.

plain and simple, this company has not proven in ANY way over the last couple years, that they have the desire to put out a product GOOD ENOUGH to not have title matches, big matches, etc. on their monthly events.
if they actually took the direction of making the title a longer chase with a longer build it might work, but that would involve them actually caring about mid-card titles too.

they could sell a PPV event where Rollins/Ambrose closed the show with an epic, big feud ending match....plus good filler? people would watch. but they don't do things like that.
this company operates on a week-to-week basis with their own FANS let alone newbies.

Brock winning the title and only appearing once and awhile would be FINE if this was the UFC, or quite frankly anything else besides wrestling.
They've already set the bar to a certain standard, you can't knock it down unless you have legitimate plans behind it, which they never do and never will.

I mentioned this in a previous thread, but I'm not sure why everyone assumes Lesnar will have a lengthy reign, or any kind of reign for that matter, when he beats Cena. I can't imagine WWE will have Lesnar win at SummerSlam and hold the belt til Mania after the incessant complaining that went on when Rock went from Rumble to Mania. I also can't imagine Lesnar losing to anyone for any reason prior to Mania.

In my estimation, the only thing that would make sense is for Lesnar to absolutely kick Cena's ass, win the title and vacate it the next night on Raw. If Lesnar decimates Cena and wins the title, then what more does he have to prove? He has said that he wants to be WWE World Heavyweight Champion. He has never said that he wants to defend the title or have a long reign.

I think on the post-SummerSlam Raw Lesnar and Heyman claim that he has done it all and has nothing left to prove. He surrenders the titles to The Authority and a tournament is set up for Night of Champions. That also allows them to eliminate the Big Gold Belt and introduce the new WWE Championship in a logical and fluid manner.

Then an enemy of The Authority like Batista wins the title before Triple H convinces Lesnar to come back at Rumble of Elimination Chamber to win the title back. Then it culminates in Lesnar dropping the title to Bryan or Reigns at Mania.

That's how you get Lesnar from SummerSlam to Mania as champion without having him lose and without having him technically hold the strap for the entire time.

If the plan is for Lesnar to keep the title till Mania, I could see Lesnar defend the title on those two PPVs, plus the Royal Rumble. They honestly don't need Lesnar to make a title defense at Survivor Series to sell the PPV on the Network or on regular PPV cause they could easily build a 4 on 4 or 5 on 5 Survivor Series between the Authority and the Anti-Authority team. On TLC, they could pull a CM Punk where he didn't defend the title (even though his was because on injury), and there could be a big time match to sell that PPV. Now thinking about it, I don't think they even need him after Hell in a Cell to defend the title, cause the Rumble match could sell the Royal Rumble PPV and the Elimination Chamber match could sell the Elimination Chamber PPV alone, but I see Lesnar defend it on those three PPVs.
