02/03 Brock. I still have no idea why they turned him heel again in 03.

I like seeing Brock genuinely seem interested in shit. It's why I vividly remember the R-truth segment from a few years back you could tell Brock just loved it. Dude is super entertaining when he wants to be and when he can have a bit more character than big angry fella he tends to shine. It's why this version of Brock seems so interesting to most I feel. I know a lot of people hated the first half of the 2020 Rumble but Brock’s reactions to each entrant were great. Special shoutouts to doing the JCVD dance during MVP’s music and giving an impressed “Big boy!” when Keith Lee came out.

02/03 Brock. I still have no idea why they turned him heel again in 03. Realistically, I think I understand. Unfortunately, 2003 was a pretty weak time as far as have any credible heels, and most of their attempts weren't good. With Angle returning from his neck injury, he was going to be a face. Brock was also...just an absolute monster of a human being, and unless you have a backlog of credible heels to have Brock run through, then there's only so many paths you can take. Brock had already feuded with Angle, Big Show, Cena, A-Train and already ran through several other guys when he was a heel. Barring bringing over guys like Steiner or Nash and turning them heel or bringing in *heh* Triple H, there's not a lot for Brock to do, so they figured face Angle vs. heel Brock was the right route. And maybe that would've worked had they not turned Angle 8 months later.

'02-'03, so many memorable matches in that first year.
v. Hardyz v. Test v. RVD v. Hogan v. Rock v. Undertaker v. Undertaker(Hell in a Cell)
And of course, Brock had one of the best feuds of that decade with Kurt Angle.

I like him the most whenever they let him be goofy

pretty much any time you can tell he's having fun with what he's doing.
I think he got bored doing the suplex city wrecking ball heel quickly, but vince kept throwing money at him to stick with it.

Cowboy Brock by a mile. I think it works because it's extremely close to who Brock really is
