[The GOAT]

As previously reported, WWE has plans for a Cesaro baby face push in the future. The general consensus is that when Cesaro eventually splits from Paul Heyman, he will enter into a program with Brock Lesnar, one that could possibly take place as one of the main events at this year's SummerSlam pay-per-view.
Another idea for SummerSlam, while not yet confirmed, and is actually up in the air based on how things turn out for The Shield, is a Roman Reigns vs. Triple H main event at SummerSlam.
The idea seems to be that Cesaro goes over on Lesnar and Reigns goes over on HHH at SummerSlam, with the mindset being it would help elevate them to top-tier baby face status.
It's worth noting that when WWE maps things out that far in advance, that plans change a lot as everything is a moving target that tends to change on a month-to-month basis.

Reigns/Hunter was an obvious one (and one that's already been previously reported), but I really don't like them pulling the trigger on Cesaro/Lesnar yet. I especially dislike the notion of Brock jobbing this quickly after 'conquering the Streak.' And yes, I can already hear the defensive arguments - Lesnar has won his last four matches, by Summerslam he will have been undefeated for the past 16 months, he has more credibility more than ever before now that he's ended Taker's streak, etc. But still. In my opinion, they should just pair Lesnar up with another big name opponent (I vote John Cena, perhaps) and have Lesnar go over him in the Summer to keep up his reign of dominance.

Plus, Cesaro seems like a shoe-in for winning the MITB briefcase, and I have the mental image in my head of Heyman carrying around the briefcase for awhile, which means no break-up just yet given that Money In The Bank and Summerslam are so close together.

Last I heard, they're gonna do Lesnar vs Bryan for the title with Lesnar winning

I don't know, I also don't like Cesaro going over Lesnar just yet for the same reasons you listed, pretty much. He just broke the streak and is already going to job clean? Doesn't sound very good. HHH/Reigns will be great though

MY CLIENT CESARO CONQUERED MY CLIENT BROCK LESNAR WHO CONQUERED THE STREAK? lol sounds like something the WWE would do..

I doubt it. Neither finish (Lesnar winning the title and either losing it at a non-Mania PPV or keeping it up for seven months till WM31, or Lesnar jobbing in his first match after breaking the streak) makes any sense to me. I could see it happening at the end of the year (Survivor Series at the earliest) or at the Rumble, though.

Lol I will stop watching forever if Cesaro beats Lesnar at SS

Lesnar is the GOAT right now.

 

[Trip in the Head]

Lesnar is the GOAT right now.

:awyeah:ity2: Not to me he's not. Never have liked him since he showed up way back when. Was happy he went to UFC. Wish he'd stayed there.

Not sure on the Lesnar match, Lesnar's coming off the Streak and in my opinion puts him in the title hunt. Bryan vs Brock would be a great feud, Bryan is a massive babyface, Lesnar should be top heel after the Taker win, so I think SS should be Lesnar vs Bryan for the title.

2ndly Cesaro should stick with Heyman, Heyman's mic work these past weeks has been amazing, better than usual which is great.

This sets up Lesnar vs Cesaro for the title and going over Lesnar and capturing the title is great for Cesaro, its also puts forth a match I love to see, Cesaro vs Bryan, PPV quality match for the title

Yeah they have had good matches in the past for sure

Yeah they have had good matches in the past for sure

Would be better than Zayn vs Cesaro, any of them, plus they are both over with the fans

 

[Trip in the Head]

Would be better than Zayn vs Cesaro, any of them

And thats a big task

I'm with you on Cesaro/Lesnar. it just wouldn't feel right at all.

 

[Snowman1]

Don't think Triple vs Reigns is the right call here. They keep involving Bryan with the Authority, and if they want to give Bryan a long reign, they need to pay this off. Triple H vs Bryan II is the PERFECT match for Summerslam, I'm sure they can rekindle the fire to set up Reigns vs Hunter.

Under this scenario, who would Bryan face? Batista sounds nice but he's getting his CM Punk on, maybe they can roll with Orton or preferably Cena again, would be down with that. But his options seem limited, with Bray Wyatt being unable to escape this awful Cena feud intact, he's out.

As for Lesnar vs Cesaro... there's only 3 words to say. OH HELL YES! ipebomb:
