Brock losing doesn't lose them money, how can it effect buys if it's the result of the PPV they've bought? Brock just being there sells the PPV, they will market it as can the powerful Ryback stop the unstoppable Lesnar or something like that, that's guaranteed money.

Lesnar does bring buys but Lesnar and Taker will do even more. When WWE first signed Brock's deal, I'm sure that they had already chosen who to fight at WM and Ryback was probably out of the question. I know WWE creative changes their mind in the last second like they do on RAW but I don't think they will for this because this is a big deal.

Punk was apparently rumored as Takers opponent if he isn't still in the title picture by then. Note only rumored.

Yeah Taker v Brock would draw more but with Rock/Cena I'm not sure if it's their concern, I'd hope not but then again WWE = money.

If not Brock then Taker's match is a mystery. It was rumoured to be Sheamus though.

I've mentioned this a few times over the past couple of months. My logic being that they want to build up Ryback as a credible main eventer, as Vince has been quoted as saying he thinks he could be the #2 babyface in the company. And the fact that Brock is leaving after Wrestlemania (if he doesn't sign again) so I figured Brock losing to Ryback might be a great way for him to go while putting over a younger guy in the process. Ryback could lose and still come out looking great, but it wouldn't be too soon for him to beat Brock either. There's still plenty of time before Wrestlemania for Ryback to get more significant wins under his belt (against Big Show? Mark Henry? Etc.) and as I recall, they did pretty much the same thing with Brock himself during his first run in 2002. He beat only midcarders, then after only four months of that, he all of a sudden beats The Rock (of all people) and becomes WWE Champion and a made man, and no one complained about that. It established Brock as a main eventer right then and there.

That said, I don't see the match happening. Most likely, you'll see Rock-Cena-Punk and Taker-Brock, which isn't a bad thing at all. But Ryback against Brock would still do well to put over Ryback, and it's not at all implausible that they would do this route.

I feel this match..

Also feeling Ryback would go over Brock because of Brock's way of doing business. It would be the perfect time for Ryback to become massively over.. I'd like this and it could happen.

I'd do it. I'd have Ryback go over Lesnar at WM to become a big main eventer. A simple passing of the torch. If Lesnar was supposed to win I wouldn't do it... I'm not sure if he'll be around next year (WM 30) and him winning in the final bout between them makes no sense. I don't think it'll happen though. I could see Brock wrestling Taker instead, while Ryback goes over, say... Big Show or somehting.

1 Year and already in a top match at Wrestlemania? LOL! No.

I don't see why not. If they are serious about pushing this guy, then what the hell else are they going to do with him? It's not like they have a midcard to put him in, he's already squashed half of them.
