The success of this match doesn't hinge on who plays babyface and who plays heel, and that's the beauty of it. Lesnar is already over as one of those unique characters who doesn't really need to chase cheers or seek boos. Meanwhile, Strowman is over because he's an ass-kicking machine fans love to watch cause carnage.

Strowman vs. Lesnar is a Vince McMahon wet dream waiting to happen (sorry for the mental image). It's that classic big man vs. big man WWE presentation, but without someone who can't work there to hamper proceedings come bell time. Let your monsters loose, WWE. The results may be special.

WWE have to be careful with Braun, because they don't want him looking second-rate to anybody in the long run, but they also must satisfy Brock's need to be an alpha male. Put both men in the same ring come No Mercy and the pay-per-view's name will come to life.

Keep it short and sweet though, because Braun is still developing in-ring and brevity suits Lesnar's style anyway.
