What if Brock Lesnar never left WWE?

I still don't understand this notion out there that brock Lesnar somehow managed to slip in his 2nd year in the company. I think this is one of those myths created and thrown about by Brock Detractors as a way to chip away at what he did, it's pretty much the same myth that Brock only became popular because he was a UFC fighter...

Brock held onto the WWE Title for 9 months in his 2nd year in the WWE, I don't understand how that was slipping. The guy at 25 was used to put over and make legit main event stars out of the near 40 year old crowd of Benoit, Guerrero, and Brock's heat was hot enough to get people to give a damn about Hardcore Holly. There's a reason the WWE used Brock before Wrestlemania 20 against Benoit and Guerrero, because he was the hottest thing in the company, and he put those two over. Now, just because those two failed to mantain the heat that Lesnar gave them, isn't a detriment to Lesnar.

Yes, he lost to Eddie Guerrero, because Brock Lesnar at 25 or 26 was going to be put into THE marquee match at Wrestlemania, vs. Bill Goldberg with Steve Austin. Think about that, Lesnar was over enough to be billed in a match with Goldberg and Steve Austin just 3 years after WCW went out of business, and at the big Anniversary show of Wrestlemania. If that's falling off, I'd hate to see what happens when the guy was on.
