All the supposed damage done to Brock Lesnar’s monstrous aura at Bill Goldberg’s hands was undone in less than five minutes at WrestleMania and suddenly, Survivor Series and the Royal Rumble feel like distant memories. Lesnar survived multiple Spears and the Jackhammer for the first time in his career, took his long-time rival to Suplex City, and finished him off with a merciful F5.

He was squashed last November, but Brock has emerged from the Goldberg feud stronger than ever. It turned out to be exactly what he needed to wash away the post-Ambrose/Orton slump his career had entered, and he once again feels like the most dangerous wrestler in the company. Now, it’s time to amplify that dominance by booking him like Thor, and this should take the form of a year-long undefeated streak.

The Beast shouldn’t lose between now and WrestleMania 34. Furthermore, he should win his matches cleanly and decisively, establishing himself as WWE’s undisputed alpha dog. This will not only bring prestige to the title, but also make whoever eventually ends Lesnar’s streak look like a monster, resulting in a more significant pay-off at next year’s 'Mania.
