Paul Heyman has been associated with some of the biggest names in the business, and he spent many years working alongside Brock Lesnar as his advocate on WWE programming.
Brock Lesnar has been noticeably absent from WWE TV due to the Vince McMahon lawsuit as he last wrestled inside a WWE ring when he faced off against Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam in August of 2023. Earlier this week Brock Lesnar was name dropped on Raw during a segment featuring Xavier Woods and Kofi Kingston.
Recently Paul Heyman spoke to Shakiel Mahjouri of CBS Sports, and Heyman remained tight lipped when he was asked if he has spoken with The Beast Incarnate.
“It’s funny, when people ask me about that, and it’s the same answer I would have given in 2002 or 2009 when he was the UFC Heavyweight Champion and people would see me in the background of his training camps or fights. When it comes to Brock Lesnar, Brock Lesnar doesn’t like to be discussed about anything about his life that is off-camera. If I do speak to Brock Lesnar, he would want that to be private. If I don’t speak with Brock Lesnar, he would want that to be private.
Number one, I would never want to violate his wish of privacy. Number two, I would fear for a human being that would want to violate the feeling of privacy that would be desired by Brock Lesnar. Based on both love and appreciation for the man, and a healthy dose of absolute fear of the man, I will neither confirm nor deny my knowledge of even the existence of a species on this planet that carries the name Brock Lesnar.”
When asked if he thinks Brock Lesnar might return to WWE in the future Paul Heyman said, “I don’t really put any thought into that at this time because it’s not a subject that is going to resolve itself by Survivor Series or by the end of the year, therefore it is not on the radar of things to address.”
It’s not known if Brock Lesnar will eventually return to WWE someday, but Triple H has said that Brock is “not gone” from World Wrestling Entertainment.
