Finn Balor vs. Brock Lesnar: Book.....IT!
Since I'm known for posting responsibly, I figured it be a good conversation to start here since the Rumours thread is getting filled up with
hullabalooza back-and-forths over how to do Finn vs. Brock the right way.
So, how would yOOu book the WWE's version of Rocky vs. Thunderlips, Tyrion vs. the Mountain, or an Ewok vs. the Rancor?
So far the theory some fOOlks have posed that I agree with is a slow burn dealio where Finn initially gets demolished at first and then through
painful trial and error finally finds the method to bring down the Beast.
BOOK IT NOW!

Punk vs Brock V2, except Balor won't throw hilariously soft kicks that make it look like Brock is playing pretend with his son.

Unfortunately, I find it hard to invest in Balor vs Rollins or Owens due to the size difference, so a waste of Lesnar to me..

Balor comes out and spears Brock.
He does it again.
He then jackhammers Brock.
Pin 1-2-3.
In 75 seconds, erasing Goldberg from any significance for having done similar.

I want this match to happen and I want Balor to win clean, just to piss people off.

If you need Finn Balor to appear to be on Brock Lesnar's level -- maybe not their first encounter, but the first one you have Balor win -- you
could soften it by using a gimmick match as an equalizer. Balor's last marquee NXT Title defense against Kevin Owens was a ladder match, right?
Balor can win that kind of match against Lesnar by using weapons, and without having to pin him. Then, if that works well enough, and Balor looked
convincing against Lesnar, you can have a rubber match where Balor actually pins him.

My reasons are similar for wanting to see Cody win the ROH Title and have a nice looooong reign.

I don't think there's a need to book around Balor's size or credibility. Lesnar isn't anymore Superhuman than prime
Undertaker, who beat both Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H in a Handicap match then 2 years later would replicate that feat against Show and
Lesnar but would also have competive matches against the likes of J. Hardy, or prime Goldberg who'd steamroll through everybody but would have
competitive matches against fellow faces like Sting and Bret.
Undertaker's streak never got old because once it made around 14 it was a string of quality matches. Lesnar can remain nearly unbeatable but he
shouldn't be invulnerable. It was a sight to see against Cena, besides that the squashes haven been forgettable and pointless.
