The Wrestlemania match was weird, like it was the first half of an epic struggle, only they didn't get to the struggle.

An F5 onto a pile of chairs was an awesome way to finish that match, but it just came so suddenly. Like the buildup, booking, and finish to the match were great on paper but the actual match wasn't given nearly enough time

BAEST MODE!!!

I don't think the problem is Brock as a performer, he's shown he can put on good matches when the person he's booked against is someone we're supposed to perceive as a threat--Dean just was not at any point whatsoever presented as that kind of threat, not in the buildup and especially not in the match itself, so said match got the one-sided suplexes/F5/pin treatment just like Dean was Kofi, and that was completely loving stupid and one of the most shortsighted creative decisions they've made in a long, long time.

Suplex City Brock is a great deal more limited than the Brock we were seeing up until mid 2014.

The worst part about that match was Dean not even using the barbed wire bat, especially after Foley talked about how much he liked Dean and how intense the promo where he gave it to him was.

And the chainsaw spot consisted of Dean trying and failing to start the chainsaw, and then (IIRC) swinging it at Brock and missing. Not that I expected the stupid chainsaw to get legit use, but the way they handled it made Dean look inept.

And didn't Balor use a chainsaw in his entrance at the big Mania weekend show as well?

the barbed wire bat should have been lodged in lesnar's back just for brock to shrug it off and pin him anyways

If they had thought up the "Asylum Match" for him against Lesnar, there would have at least been some interesting cage spots.

The chainsaw was a loving stupid idea from the get go and for what the build looked like all they needed was Terry Funk endorsing him and possibly reminding him of the barbed wire 2x4 they didn't even end up loving using.

It's probably in his ridiculous contract that he only has to do suplexes anymore.
