WWE Survivor Series 2016: 5 Reasons Brock Lesnar Should Beat Goldberg

2. The Rub of Beating Lesnar Should Go to Someone Who Can Use it
I just mentioned that there’s a real chance Brock Lesnar never loses another singles match clean. While this is true, it’s not a guarantee. What is a guarantee, however, is that if someone does eventually beat Lesnar clean, it will likely be someone who deserves that spot and will benefit greatly from it. Therefore, if Lesnar is destined to lose a singles match, it should not be to somebody who is almost guaranteed to leave the company afterward.
Lesnar losing to Goldberg would be a monumental waste. We’ve been over the fact that Goldberg is old and doesn’t need this win because he’s on his way out. What we haven’t been over is how it would take away an opportunity for a rising star to get a potential career-making victory. Sure, even if Goldberg beats Lesnar on Sunday, beating Lesnar is still a feat. But it’s not nearly as big of a deal as being the first one to knock him off in several years. If that honor went to Goldberg it would be a shame.
That honor should eventually go to someone like Bray Wyatt. Wyatt is in desperate need of something to put him truly on the map, and a win over Lesnar, whom he has teased a feud with in the past, would do exactly that. And if not Wyatt, some other rising/semi-established star that could use the win should get it. Just give to somebody who can actually benefit from the victory, not someone like Goldberg who already holds a victory over the Beast and is likely re-retiring following Survivor Series.
