I don't like Brock's current character because it's an embodiment of Vince's desperation for mainstream acceptance. Brock was a pro wrestler. Let him BE a pro wrestler. WWE values Lesnar more as a UFC/MMA fighter than as an actual pro wrestler. They don't want people to look at Brock and think of him as a "WWE Superstar". They want you to look at him as "That UFC Guy".

And with how much they pay him and how little he appears, he needs a hook. Rock is one of the biggest actors in the world, Triple H is the boss, Taker is some sort of wizard zombie, and Brock's the unstoppable rage machine.

To WWE, Brock is a "celebrity guest" who conveniently knows how to take bumps.

So since this is the norm here for him its accepted and mostly well liked.........
Is Scott Steiner forgiven for Royal Rumble 2003 where he did basically the same just suplex over and over?
I kinda want to re-watch it myself now.

Lesnar is completely f***ing useless.
People rode Cena for years for only having 5 moves (bullshit), but love this guy who only seems to have 2. And it's all because they have somehow convinced themselves that he is the baddest man alive, despite an average-at-best MMA career.
The dude can't talk, he can't wrestle, and he looks like a Cabbage Patch Kid found 'roids. And to top it all off, he's reckless in the ring. The sooner he f***s off, the better off the world will be.

It makes him seem less like a wrestler and more like a kid who's become so good at a video game that he just toys with people by pressing one button command. I want him to become bored of hitting suplexes eventually and decide he wants to just throw lariats. Lesnar's current methods work well and entertain the hell out of me.But to add to his repertoire, Brock should become the lariat King. I want to see lariats that will make Stan Hansen, Ryback and JBL's look like children at play. Some heads are gonna roll!

I enjoy how hard hitting these matches are. They really seem like they're beating the shit out of each other ala Lesnar/Reigns

In watching Summerslam with my sis we both pointed out that Seth always manages to try new things during every ppv which is highly entertaining.
But Brock can do the exact same move over and over and it's never boring. For me personally his athleticism is such a magnificent thing to witness. I'm always in awe of his speed and power. Like that cracked article that called him a human cheat code. The man can do no wrong. Hell, even though it looked as if he was suplexing Undertaker as gently as possible it was still a lot of fun to watch.

I LOVE this about him. He's such a subversion of the normal way wrestling works. It's like he has no respect for the very PROCESS of wrestling. "No, I don't do fancy moves. I hurt people." and he does the same stuff over and over. And he shuts down dude's signature spots all the time. Like tonight with the old school. When Undertaker was setting it up I said to my wife "If anyone is going to just yank the Undertaker down from that its going to be Brock" Then whammo.

He comes from this weird planet where everyone hates Brock Lesnar more than anything else in the universe. Foxylady79 is also from there.

I dunno, I didn't realize how tiring it was getting until last night when he screamed SUPLEX CITY BITCH. Twice. At least.

I kinda want to re-watch it myself now. Difference between Steiner and Lesnar is that Lesnar suplexing people is part of his character and it's intentionally meant to be repetitive suplexes. Steiner suplexing HHH over and over was only because he was gassed and panicked because he couldn't think of anything else to do, so he kept doing suplexes.
