Gunther vs Brock could be great if he brought his working shoes as some say. Realistically though, how likely is that. I worry that we'd get minimum effort Brock as we have so often.

I really think a Logan Paul match would be killer too. It's got a perfect built in personality contrast of Logan the ultimate attention seeking e-celeb dickhead vs Brock, the guy who hates people so much he has the walled farm in the middle of nowhere. Logan's a great promo so can carry the bulk of the talking. Brock's never held the US title so he has motive to fight Logan beyond just wanting to squash a bug. Brock's best matches on his 2nd run have nearly always been against smaller athletic guys who can pinball around and bump and that's Logan's strong suit inring. Can't believe I think this mind but I'd pay to see it. Or put him against all of Judgment Day. Balor's the obvious choice but I'd go for Dominic in a no DQ match to allow interference, there's history there and you could have some great shenanigans with Priest & Balor doing everything they can to try make Dirty Dom a made man by beating Brock Lesnar. I mean I admit I'm a shameless Brock mark who would far rather he'd had Roman's neverending title run than Roman, the guy just does it for me, but even if he's working limited dates and not doing much himself in the ring there's tons of programs you could still do with him. Hell, Brock vs Grayson Waller could be a fun sideshow, and I'd love to see him against either Gable or Otis.

And after shaking the hand of Cody after a hard fought match at Summerslam last year, Beastie Boy saddled up, rode into the sunset and died on the way back to his home planet.

Cowboy Brock is such an entertaining character, but personally, if I never saw another Brock match it wouldn't bother me.

What are the odds they book him as #14 and never gets to the ring before he's set on by the AOP before being dragged off to the abyss?

He was almost certainly going to be a surprise entry, doing a double elimination spot with whoever his Mania feud is (likely Gunther). Probably the most short term effect of today’s news is someone drawing the short straw to call Brock and tell him he’s cut. They will then have to decide who replaces him, both in the Rumble and in his Mania plans.
Of course this is wrestling so there’s at least a 50% chance that plans don’t change and we hear his music on Saturday.

Leaving the outside the ring stuff to the other thread, I'm just disappointed by his matches more often than not.
