In relation to the Rookie of the Year award.
Now, the basic argument for this is that Brock Lesnar won more titles and shit. However, listen to my counterargument.
Firstly, Kurt Angle made his debut during a time when the main event in WWE was set. Brock Lesnar came during a time of flux. Angle synchronised with the rest of the main event with ease. Lesnar had to wait for others to be displaced.
And, primarily, do you want to encourage our beloved rookies to leave? A "there's the door" type of deal. That's what you're doing if you call it The Brock Lesnar award. They'll get an ego and betray us. If you call it the Kurt Angle award, it'll take a good five years for the winner to go batshit crazy and it'll only because his fingers will have broken down from all the fantastic posts they've done.
Case closed.
