And, on what planet, let me ask you, is Alberto Del Rio a smaller opponent anyway?

Tim Legend · 03-09-2013, 01:31 AM

wasn't really talking about Del Rio specifically...my mistake since its a thread about

...I just grow tired of seeing some of the asinine " ____ isnt a credible opponent to Brock" comments...

Insert anyone smaller than brock really... Punk, db, etc etc

It doesnt take credibility to have an entertaining match is my main point here..

Oh, I'm not singling you out specifically. I agree with you.

There's just a lot of this "Smaller Guy" stuff on the board about guys who if I stood next to them in real life, I'd be standing eye-to-eye with their belt buckles.

People don't really buy into the arm bar, but most people don't realise how legitimate that move really is. If Del Rio put that move on Lesnar he would tap, but it's just not believable.

Del rio is the real deal, sure he lacks mic skills and has a limited moveset, but he has a rich background of amateur wrestling who was apart of the Mexican Olympic team, but pulled out. He also has a MMA and luchador background and is well adjusted to performing the WWE.

If Del Rio went against a talent like Kurt Angle, we would truly see how versatile Del Rio is.

I think this match would help legitimase Del Rio, but its just not believable for the audience.

I agree that Lesnar needs to face some full-timers in addition to the likes of HHH, Rock and Taker.

I'm not opposed to Lesnar/ADR in principle, but what I really want above all is a Lesnar/Punk feud with Heyman in between. Those three together have the potential for a damned great feud.

Funny you say that because del rio was asked if he could wrestle anyone who would it be and he said kurt angle. As far as his moveset being limited that's on wwe for restricting alot of their wrestlers for whatever god unknown reason. Del rio and d. Bryan are prime examples. As for del rio being versatile watch his work in mexico if you haven't already.

I'd like to see it. I'd rather see it than against HHH now. I'd like to see Lesnar against Punk, Del Rio, Sheamus and down the line Cesaro. I have zero interest in Brock vs Ryback or Brock vs Orton.

Assuming HHH disappears again after WM, Brock will need to move on - I think taking the title from ADR would be the way to go - maybe at Summerslam. Then move on to feud him with Sheamus through the winter, as Sheamus could get the rub without even getting a win. Then come WM next year you have Lesnar as champion vs Punk which could be the legit WM Main Event Punk wants.

Same here

Even though he would most likely lose, I still want to Del Rio Vs. Helmsley.
