Nope, and that's exactly why I'm not freaking out over the decision of a fake wrestling match.

I'll let the actual bookers worry about that stuff. I watch wrestling for the matches - and this one was a great one.

The match was great.

It felt real.

If you guys thought the booking in this match was bad, you should have seen how Dana White booked Lesnar in his comeback match at UFC 141.

I thought Cena / Brock was booked perfectly, there is no way Cena was losing 2 big matches in a row and Brock looked strong in defeat. Brock dominated Cena, the only way he could have looked any stronger would have been to win. He had to jump into a steel chain shot just to get knocked off of his feet and then got AA'd onto steel steps!! How much stronger can you look??

He got hit in the head with a chain he did not see, after completely dominating

I dont think a loss beings his aura down much.

Thinking about it doesn't.

Better than WM by a lot. All matches that were WM rematches were way more exciting.
I was scared for Cena ahahaha, that sh*t looked so real, and then the blood.. wow.
I read Cena's just burnt out atm and he probably deserves the break.
Looking forward to see how they book Lesnar now, for some reason i see Vince returning.

Reading this thread, the Pay-Per-Views near Wrestlemania have received better reviews than Wrestlemania. It seems to happen every year.

If that's the case then what was the point of having Cena win and then leaving?
Also, from a program standpoint, does it really make sense for the face to go over so soon. Haven't you lost the buildup aspect? Not that it can't be recovered or whatever.

It just feels so rushed at this point.

I don't even think a loss matters for Lesnar at this point. He looked flat out scary in that match. It can only mean he'll tighten his game up and not make so many mistakes in his next one.

It's not even a matter of the loss being important and there's always to recover. But if the plan is to have Cena off TV for a while, what good does the loss do overall?

Just cause it doesn't hurt Lesnar doesn't mean it's a good decision. Now if Cena isn't taking time off, then it's different. I'm just thinking if Cena's going away, what does a win like that really do for the story?

It allows Brock to wreak havoc on the rest of the company and allows the feud to pick back up when cena returns?

whysoserious · Post #114 » by **whysoserious** » Mon Apr 30, 2012 4:14 pm

There's definitely ways to take this, but even Cena coming back and picking things up. I mean he already beat him. Brock's whole legitmizing the company takes a hit in him losing. It just seems like an odd way to take things. It would have been so much better for Brock to destory and win, have Cena go away. Have Brock completely rip through people up until facing Punk, maybe Punk drops the belt and Cena comes back to pick things up.

That kind of hurts Punk but i'm sure you can find a way to protect him.
