There's good reason to believe that Brock Lesnar should actually be a four-times a year attraction in World Wrestling Entertainment, and is actually an unnecessary distraction to the current weekly product. Thus, while the idea of Lesnar and Heyman being an attraction is awesome, it's actually an added headache that complicates issues in creating more stars for WWE. Yes, Brock's the best. However, he's so demonstrably better than a product of performers who are learning the gifts that he inherently has that it actually cheapens everything that's NOT Brock by comparison. The solution? Brock should be like Batman, this superhero who lurks around, and responds to a call when storyline times absolutely demand a heroic babyface presence. Imagine Kevin Owens being undefeated, having beaten John Cena three times, and is unwilling to wrestle any more US Championship open challenges. Instead, he wants a shot at the WWE Championship? Insert Brock Lesnar. He's a living legend, and Paul Heyman cutting the promo to set up that match would be golden. Triple H says that if Owens can beat Brock, the WWE Championship shot is his. Of course Owens loses, but in that match he's shown to be tough and able to keep up with Lesnar. That'd do so much for his stock (and anyone else's put in a similar situation, too).
