I love the thought of Lesnar going up against an entire gang of foes like the Wyatts, I just don't love that it's happening as early as this year's Wrestlemania. I want Bray Wyatt to actually win a Wrestlemania program for once in his life, and I don't see much chance of that happening with Lesnar. Even assuming that it did (and I certainly wouldn't cancel out the possibility of it happening completely, since sometimes the unthinkable happens and this could end up being another of those ironic things that no one expects, just like Brock ending Taker's streak two years ago), I feel beating Brock is a rub much better reserved for someone like Kevin Owens instead, especially given the similarities of he and Lesnar's characters (both tough guys, both "prize fighters", etc.) Going over another boogeymen "from the dark side" like The Undertaker would be a better win for Wyatt.
Best case scenario if Bray loses is that Brock fights all four Wyatts in a handicap match and pins Strowman to look as bad-ass as possible while also 'protecting' Bray by having him avoid taking a direct loss (although defeating the much larger and stronger Strowman makes the notion of protecting Bray rather futile, but whatever. That's just how I think they would see it.)
Kind of a shame Sting and Randy Orton are out with injuries because either one of them would have been more than willing to do the job for Bray (Sting was even his rumored opponent, and Randy would have definitely been the second choice imo if he wasn't on the shelf as well) and both would have been good feuds and quality opponents for Wyatt to go over.
