Alright, so, there's a lot of work done by Blizzard on this Nefarian vs Ragnaros brawl match. There seems to be a lot of minions/sounds that are not relics from the BRM adventure, but made just for this Taven Brawl (unless the content was made for BRM and eventually left out).
So I'm thinking, is all this effort really made by Blizzard for just 5 days of Brawl, then it's forever history? Are they adding all this art and sound into the game just for it to never be used again?
I've done some searches but haven't found any answers on whether old Brawls will be re-playable somehow after their premiere week, or if that specific Brawl type will rotate back into a Brawl week in the future. Do we know if that's the case?
I for one really enjoy the concept of this current Brawl week. It's like Adventure mode but in multiplayer, where the players are the bosses. Thus I would really like to be able to revisit this showdown even when it's not the current Brawl of the week.
From what I understand we're supposed to have a new Brawl theme each week. However I remember reading a Tweet that it's not beyond the realm of possibility to have an encore for player favorite brawls.
I'm sure they'll revisit certain themes at times. Like maybe we get a Dwarf themed brawl and Moira Thaurissan comes back for example. There's just way too much work put in here to never return.
And there could be like a hall of fame, where the most popular brawls can be played permanently, perhaps just with people on your friends list.

They work a lot on adventures too, still this is a one-time thing for 95% of the community. I don't think this is a problem.
Yeah, I mean the adventures are a permanent sort of expansion to the game, while the work made for this Brawl is only available for 5 days. It just seems odd to me that all this content was produced for such a brief period of time.
I really hope for the "Hall of Fame" thing mentioned above, or any other way that makes previous Brawls playable.
Although keep in mind that brawls are so far a lot less balanced than constructed or arena. You don't really need much testing to know that Vaelastrasz is going to be insane for example. They've got the artwork, a lot of the sounds are reused, and unless it involves brand new abilities I don't think the coding takes that long. The majority of development is likely play testing and tweaking. Brawl requires much less of that.
