Paul Heyman Says Brock Lesnar Is The ‘Most Underrated’ Superstar In WWE History

Brock Lesnar is the current Beast In The Bank, but he is expected to make some kid of announcement tonight on RAW which should clear up his intentions about which title he’s going for. Still, his advocate Paul Heyman seems to think that Lesnar should be a far bigger name in the company.

While speaking to Yahoo Sports, Paul Heyman discussed Brock Lesnar’s relationship with WWE. He said that there has never been anyone in WWE history who has been more underappreciated or underrated as well. Of course, we can’t think of many Superstars with multiple title reigns that are underappreciated, but that was Heyman’s angle.

“I think the general public and even those who aren’t fans of Brock Lesnar but admire his greatness, don’t truly have the mindset of understanding how unique and how rare and how once-ever Brock Lesnar truly is.” 

“Brock Lesnar is so important to WWE because no one on the face of the planet can match up against Brock Lesnar. There is no one on any roster in mixed martial arts or sports entertainment that can compare to the resume, the accomplishments or the ability of Brock Lesnar. He’s a once-ever athlete and a once-ever performer.”

“I think Brock Lesnar is the most underrated, underappreciated talent in the history of WWE. I think Brock Lesnar deserves credit for being the best in-ring performer in this or any other generation. No one moves like him, no one has matches like him. There’s nothing standard about a Brock Lesnar match. It’s a completely different style than anyone else is employing.”

It is very likely that Brock Lesnar will be working against Seth Rollins for the Universal Title at WWE Super ShowDown in Saudi Arabia. This could be too obvious of a booking situation, but it might not be avoidable since he is already being promoted to appear at the Saudi Arabia event and he is holding the Money In The Bank briefcase.
