Ambrose would be the best candidate to get the Lesnar rub.

With the way WWE has booked the build to the TT at Fastlane, it became obvious to me that it would make the most sense to give Ambrose the Lesnar rub at WM. They've made an easy transition into Ambrose as the face who doesn't stay down, the guy who won't die. When Ambrose kept getting up from the beating Lesnar was giving him the crowd ate it up, they loved it. Ambrose would be the perfect guy to match up with Lesnar and a feud between them two heavily outdoes the predictable Wyatt/Lesnar feud. The Ambrose rub could be booked easy as well, Dean could win with a rollup after a 20 minute beatdown with a few comebacks and Dean does so well in the upset victories (Rollins match on Raw to qualify for the title match at Payback). This could be the best feud in years and a amazing match. Thoughts on this you guys ?

I don't think I'd have Ambrose beat Lesnar, he may be the guy that never dies but he's still not a believable threat to Lesnar, I like Ambrose but I think people are really overrating him, he is over and they should go with him but this whole lunatic gimmick is pretty cheesy at times and I really don't think his promos are that great, I thought his promo last RAW with Lesnar was pretty poor, then he low blows him so I'm not sure why that had to happen.

Well this is a difference on opinion because I thought his promo was great and the line about Paul holding Brock's balls was awesome and he's an amazing overall promo easily one of the best on the roster with given time. The lowblow made perfect sense because it showed he's the guy that'll do anything to take out the beast and get the chip.

Dominates Cena, beat HHH, beat Undertaker twice, dominated Reigns, went through the Wyatts at the Rumble and you want him to lose in a divas finish to Ambrose

Come on :punk2
Who would you have go over Lesnar exactly ?

According to Wikipedia, rub defines as "Helping a less popular wrestler get over by associating them with a more prominent wrestler." How the fuck is Ambrose not popular? He's one of the biggest stars in the company today and has a massive fanbase.
Well based off of Wiki I wasn't going off that, clearly Ambrose is one of the most popular on the roster. By 'rub' I meant a guy going over Lesnar the guy who's been dominating the company for the last 3 years to increase credibility and move up even more.

Don't get why everyone has to keep making Lesnar unstoppable. A back and forth match is the best way to book it. Just have Ambrose go nuts and do risky moves. Taking all of Lesnars offense and looking like a bitch does no one any favors. If Kane can lose to Austin, and Mark Henry can lose to Kevin Owens , then Ambrose can have a match with Lesnar that's not a glorified squash match.

I can get behind Ambrose beating him, but not with a corny roll up. Save the surprise roll ups for divas, heels, and guys like Kalisto. If you're going to have him beat the strongest booked guy on the roster let him beat him straight up with the Dirty Deeds.

I don't care how they get to the Dirty Deeds it can be clean or dirty but he needs to beat him clean. Thats how you establish him.

Everyone else who has beat Brock since he came back got to use their finisher. I like Reigns but we all know if he was booked to beat Brock he'd do it with a Spear. So why can't Ambrose?

You could even have him rake Brock's eyes or bite his head or whatever lunatic shit. But if he's going over Brock he needs to do it with the Dirty Deeds.

Just imagine them selling the Dirty Deeds as the move that took out Brock Lesnar for the next few months as Brock disappears. It would take him and his finisher to the level his fans want him to be on.

He stands more to gain from simply not going down at the hands if Brock than beating him imo. Have the refs call the match and give him the Bret Hart/Austin ending in which Dean passes out in a pool of his own blood and Lesnar flips out because Ambrose's body sooner shut down before outright allowing Brock to pin or submit him. Lesnar had to "kill him" to keep him down. He should also punish Brock physically. The Seth Rollins table spot would be great. The match could also be a Last Man Standing bout, which would really sell the story. If they keep his promos and character similar to how it is currently, Dean becomes the biggest face on the roster after that ending.

He doesn't even need to beat Lesnar to become a star. If he puts on an amazing performance and he's heavily protected in the finish, like lets say he's put through a flaming table ( just an ex) he would also look like a million bucks.

Either way, Ambrose vs Lesnar >>>>> Wyatt vs Lesnar

So people seriously think having Dean beat the same guy who thoroughly dismantled the 3 most pushed guys on the current roster (Cena, Reigns, Rollins), all of whom have kicked Dean's own ass before.
:dahell :what?

:wow
The Ambrose fetish truly has reached new levels of insanity.:lol I'm not knocking anyone for liking him or wanting him pushed, but a lot of you guys need major booking reality checks.
:fuckedup

I'd be okay with this, if the overhaul Ambrose offense. It just looks crap most of the time and I actually like the guy. Him swinging around like an idiot doesn't even look like it's doing anything against your average wrestlers, never mind Bork.

Oh and no roll up. That would be a horrible way to have Lesnar finally lose.

Yes, Ambrose should be the one to beat Brock, via NUMEROUS MIRACLE DIRTY DEEDS, SMALL PACKAGE, or ROLL UP.

It keeps both strong.

Theres no one I can see that deserves it more. Theres no one, save for Stroman, it would do more for.

Lesnar already lost to TAKER, HHH, and Cena, he can be beat.

While Id rather Dean win at WM, winning at EXTREME RULES in a no DQ style match against Brock would protect both guys also.

He doesn't have to beat Lesnar.

Austin never beat Bret in their top feud. But Hart succeeded in making sure Austin was set in the main event - all they had to do was book the match in similar fashion. This isn't me comparing Lesnar to Hart or Ambrose to Austin incase anyone decides to put words in my mouth. It's the fact that you don't HAVE to win a feud to be put over.

Lesnar vs Ambrose could be a one hell of a match. If they are doing right it could be better than the meaningless finisher fest from the wm31 main event.
it could be one of the best storytellings during a match.

You just need 1 fuckin month to make ambrose believable against lesnar.
if he beats reigns,a legend or a main event guy from the past.

If Ambrose loses at Fastlane, then I'll be all for an Ambrose/Lesnar WM match - even if Ambrose doesn't win. IMO he could still look golden, even in a losing effort.

That said, fingers crossed for Ambrose vs Triple H.
