But with him, he's been a cornerstone of the business for over 20 years and never left. Brock Lesnar, on the other hand...

Exactly. That's why I wouldn't mind seeing Lesnar win. It'd be a passing of the torch, in a way, from Undertaker to Lesnar in terms of having that one marquee match at WM each year. You could have guys from the current roster gunning to be the guy to take down Lesnar, who was the only man to defeat The Undertaker at WrestleMania.

That's true he is however I give most of that due to his age. I just don't like the idea of Lesnar being the one to end it. Personally, I think this is one of those things that should stand the test of time.


Reed is comin' atcha!!

I agree with people saying HHH winning the title would be "best for business."

Like Uber said, the best story would be HHH winning at Mania, holding onto the belt for the summer, and Bryan beating him at Summerslam to come full circle.

I like the idea of HHH going on a complete power trip being both the champion AND COO. Keeping Bryan away from the title and making him do things to earn a shot the entire Summer. Only when Bryan conquers the challenges set before him, using his power to do what he wants, he tells him he doesnt get his shot.

Que Vince McMahon into the story who uses his power to override and go against HHH, and gives him his shot at Summerslam.

That would be so symbolic.

How long do y'all expect people to stay on this #YesMovement if he keeps losing?

Hatred for HHH aside, a 5 second title reign in one year isn't enough to make me keep watching. I know I'm probably in the minority. SCSA and Rock even had the belt for decent reigns when feuding with McMahon. Seeing DB get stomped out and losing is getting old.

I've already stopped tuning in unless Bryan is wrestling. I don't care if he wins or loses on Raws or Smackdowns, the guy can wrestle in any kind of match; which is why I enjoy him the most. His PPV matches the last few months have been worth the purchases alone IMO, especially his Rumble match with Wyatt... HOWEVER he does need to win at Mania... none of the story telling would make sense if he doesn't.

They've been on it for a couple years now. It isn't going away any time soon. Fans will just get louder and more unruly with more/better reactions, which is what you should want in wrestling if you're talking about a business standpoint.

All these people talking about tuning out and stuff... it aint gonna happen. Just chatter. I think DB will win, but I don't think he should.

I actually don't mind the hypothetical "Triple H as champ/COO egomaniac" thing, but I don't know that they can really keep this story hot for another four months when they had enough trouble keeping it going before. At that point you're just postponing Bryan's win for the sake of postponing it.
