Everyone thought Roman was going to beat Brock and win the title as well as getting the Streak rub. Since that didn't happen and Brock still hasn't been pinned who ends up beating him? I'm going to assume after what happened on Raw last night Brock will vs Seth Rollins at Summerslam for the title with Seth winning and getting that Streak rub. Thoughts?
How long is Brock's contract? If it's for a few years, then he doesn't need to lose at Summer slam. Just let him be the top guy going forward. He's the biggest attraction they have, and his matches just have a special feel to them.
Not a pressing concern if he's going to be around for a bit.
I'm guessing Undertaker gets his win back at WrestleMania 32 now. I don't see Bryan going over Lesnar, I don't see Reigns escaping Lesnar clean, and Rock looks to be on a collision course with HHH.
That's a tough one. Obviously he won't win back the title soon but WWE will have to find some clever way to keep him away from the title picture.
But I can see two big matches coming later this year.
Bryan vs Lesnar (after bryan finishes program with sheamus)
The Rock vs Lesnar ( WM 32 this is one of the most mentioned rumors)
Personally I would like both of them matches but I would enjoy matches with him vs
Ziggler, Rollins, or ryback.
I don't know what the chances are of WWE having Brock vs Reigns at mania again in a few years. That would be my guess. I don't see any of the current Babyfaces defeating Lesnar. Dolph Ziggler, Dean Ambrose, Ryback, Daniel Bryan? I don't see it happening.
I think it'll still be Reigns. And as a big a force as Lesnar has become, I don't think he's surpassed the Streak yet. One year of being an unstoppable monster doesn't eclipse 21 years of Undertaker.
Reigns can always come back at Lesnar in a year or so when he's more polished- hell, could even be at next year's Mania, and simply say, "I took the best you had and you still didn't beat me."
Here's the thing, up until the end of 31, I was as convinced as you guys that Roman was going over Lesnar. I didn't want it to happen, but I felt sure it was. In fact, I was almost 100% certain it was happening. Even going so far as to make lots of wordy posts about how Reigns was the reincarnation of Cena & that you need to get out now if you were around when Cena got his mega-push.
After Mania & Raw though? I'm not so sure. Nothing about Mania or last night felt like they were building Reigns up for his redemption against Lesnar, like they did with Cena at 28 to 29. There was no dwelling on Roman's thoughts about the loss, nor was there any kayfabe sympathy from the announcers.
Reigns will probably still get his moment by beating Rollins at some point, maybe even at Mania next year, but I don't think he's beating Brock Lesnar clean now.

Judging from WM31, Taker needs to be kept the fuck away from Lesnar. He looked fresh and good at the start, but he looked every bit of 50 years old on the back half of that match with Wyatt. He no longer has the endurance.

Brock is on fire now, between having his Austin 3:16 moment with "Suplex City, Bitch" and hitting Cole with the F-5, this man is gold. The last thing I want to think about is him putting someone else over lol.
They'll probably reserve his first clean loss for the next face of the company. It'll be hell trying to book someone to his level though.
