No, they're not. That already went out the window when they had Lesnar lose to a 50-year-old man after getting punched in the dikk.

I’m here for the scraps
Not sure if this is news, but getting punched there really really hurts
Too many shows and ppvs plus no more jobbers means you can't build up matchup like they used to but that's been an issue since the attitude era
..the attitude era masked it cuz of rock Austin Foley Taker being so Damn good at the time and an authority evil boss storyline being so fresh at that time

Was that with Taker?

They had a brock and sheamus match recently on a house show that was a good example of how they should be booking him. It was a good back and forth match with sheamus getting in some good offense and looking like he had a legit chance of winning before brock took him to suplex city for the win.
I swear they know what they should be doing/what we wanna see but refuse to give it to us on some
Like I said in threads before, the framework is there. They book the way they do out of spite and anger. They literally hit the
on the audience when the fans vocally tell them what they want.

Both of those matches (dikk-kick gate and HITC) were highly unnecessary.
A better question is why have they largely wasted Brock on Taker, HHH, and Cena when the rest of the roster could have greatly benefited from a program with him (even in his current dominant form)

Austin, Rock, & Sting used to routinely put over midcard acts without losing & making them look strong thoIt's the Austin, Rock, Cena, Crow Sting, etc. "clear the house" booking that's been prevalent for two decades. Doesn't make sense logically for guys to wait to get their ass beat, but that's the way it has always been done forever. I'm surprised Sheam even looked that strong (maybe setting up a match
Look at what Rock did for Jeff Hardy & Hurricane

Oh look, the corny coli heel turn on Lesnar has arrived 
Pretty obvious they only guy he's putting over is Reigns, who has already been booked too strong, so it wont help anyone.
People didnt care for Rusev's streak BECAUSE it was so damn obvious that they were eventually just gonna feed him to fukking Cena as usual. We called this over a year in advance and they follow right on through with it. Again, no one benefits.
Because WWE has this same backwards thinking as a number of posters in here in that those old guys are the only ones "worthy" to go toe to toe with Brock. And since WWE are the ones actually writing the stories, this confirms that they dont realize its their own shytty booking that prevents anyone else from seeming believable against Brock. Rather they just blame the talent themselves for not being good enough and use that as an excuse for WHY they wont push them. Its remarkably delusional.

What does that have to do with clearing the ring in a run in after a few months away from the show?
My whole series of posts have been about him a) not facing midcard acts, b) said midcard acts not being believable to even face him and c) him wasting time on guys who don't need to fight him.

Giving back in a run-in?
This is where some of the complaints around here start looking funny in the light. If you don't like him, fine, if you don't like him looking strong, fine, but some complaints just don't make sense.
Even the premise of the thread is a little off (though the OP makes sense). Since the day he returned and hit Cena with the F5, he's literally only faced:
Cena
HHH
Taker
Punk
Big Show
Rollins
Reigns
The majority of his matches (80-90%) were against established guys (part timers, old timers, the face of the company, etc.). There's no such thing as giving back to:
- a 25 year legend who has the GOAT gimmick
- a 13-14 time champ and future owner of the company
- a 15 time champ who has spent more time on top than Austin, Rock, and Hogan combined,
- the longest reigning champ of the modern era who was already ruined by terrible booking in the 2 years leading up to their match
- a 20 year vet who switches from heel to face more than he changes his shoes.
The only matches where he had a chance to "give back" were at RR 15 and WM last year. He won the first one (after being knocked out for a big part of the match) and lost the second one. He dominated Reigns at WM, but Reigns was coming back and had him beat (in WWE logic) before Rollins came in and won.
At least when y'all complain about Cena, it makes sense because he's beating a variety of up and comers weekly who have no reason to be fighting him anyway since it's just for them to lose.
As I keep saying, the problem is with the head of the snake putting him in this shyt. We all know dude is only about that paper (and wins/losses don't matter) so put him with more varied competition and build them to beat him or go back and forth.

The others he have faced (Kofi, Del Rio, Sheamus) have been on glorified house shows.
- a 25 year legend,
- a 14 time champ and future owner of the company
- a 15 time champ who has spent more time on top than Austin, Rock, and Hogan combined,
- the longest reigning champ of the modern era who was already ruined a year before
- a 20 year vet who switches from heel to face more than he changes his shoes.
The only matches where he had a chance to "give back" were at RR 15 (which he was knocked out by Rollins for half the match) and WM last year. He dominated Reigns, but Rollins came in and won.
