    Man imagine if Brock had stayed all the way into the 2000s? He would've had some amazing matches and rivalries and I would've loved for him to be in TNA with Kurt Angle an absolute missed opportunity. This also applies to Stone Cold since Stone Cold regretted not having that match with Lesnar and also he could've had one hell of a rivalry with Eddie Guerrero. Rip Eddie 😢. Just gotta ask what could've been

      Would he? We know how Batista ended up - his initial success was thanks to the well made Evolution storyline, and him ending Triple H's reign of terror. Unless the WWE managed to pull of a dramatic face turn for Lesnar, like with Batista, Lesnar would have been just another Goldberg. They tried to push many wrestlers of the same archetype like Lesnar - Mason Ryan (the Batista clone), Ryback, Big E, Bobby Lashley, Braun Strowman. None of them lived up.

      How is it crazy - Brock Lesnar as a wrestler was just a larger Kurt Angle, but without the mic skills and good gimmick. Despite all the pushing the WWE gave Lesnar, he never truly became a superstar. Even after they had him beat the Undertaker's streak, they still brought back the Undertaker to carry the next Wrestlemanias.

    Stone Cold being told to put over a part-timer like Lesnar is such bull - Vince never dared to force someone like Hulk Hogan to put anyone over. Infact Hulk Hogan got to bury any new wrestler he came across. Why was Stone Cold a "bad guy" for not wanting to put over Lesnar, when he's absolutely in his right not to want to? Triple H beats Lesnar, but for some reason Lesnar gets to beat the Undertaker's streak - this inconsistency and unfairness is why WWE sucks now.

      It was Austin's IDEA to lose to Lesnar in 2002. But he wanted to do it on a bigger stage not just on a random Raw episode. And he didn't quit because of that, he quit cuz he had a ton of court dates for hitting his wife at the time. I feel bad for Austin in mid 2002, but am glad he turned things around six or so months after. Good on him to turn over a new leaf like that.
