Brock Lesnar squashed John Cena at SummerSlam event
“I think Seth [Rollins] and Brock [Lesnar]. That would do well. I don’t know how well it would do over a period of time. And even though he’s a heel, I think he’d be a babyface in that one.”
“I’d be interested in seeing GUNTHER and Lesnar. How’s that sound? It sounds good right off the bat. Well, I think that might work. I don’t think Brock and CM Punk—I don’t feel that like I do the other two.”
Seth Rollins is presently having a rivalry with CM Punk
John Cena only has a number of appearances remaining in his present WWE contract, as he is going to retire at the end of this year. Present reports suggest that he will wrestle his final match in WWE on December 13 at the Saturday Night's Main Event show.
