Several fans would simply agree that Brock Lesnar is one of the most dominant pro wrestlers to have ever stepped foot inside the squared circle. He had two terrific runs in WWE, both of which saw him winning major World Titles and being a huge draw for fans. Brock Lesnar was not seen on WWE television ever since he dropped the WWE Championship to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36 back in 2020. Brock Lesnar was also previously called out by a Superstar from Monday Night RAW.
Brock Lesnar, also known as “The Beast Incarnate”, made an appearance in the Men’s Royal Rumble event this year. He was the 12th entrant, but his stay in the ring was short-lived, as he was shockingly eliminated by Bobby Lashley after just two minutes and 28 seconds. Lesnar’s frustration manifested itself in the form of destroying an announce table and assaulting a referee. It was later reported that Lesnar faced consequences for deviating from the planned script.
Speaking on his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T refuted the rumors about Lesnar getting backstage heat after the Royal Rumble match.
“Whoever wrote that story, man, they should be fired. What do they call heat? What do they know about heat first of all? I mean, what do they know about heat? You know, if Brock Lesnar got heat, trust me, he’s not gonna know about it [laughs]. Who’s gonna go tell him? Who’s gonna tell him? You know what I mean, because this guy’s drawing money to the show, all right, that’s why. I mean, he’s a major player. He’s Brock Lesnar and you know my thing has always been I’ve never cared about heat. If the boss didn’t say I had heat, I never had heat,” he said. [0:44 – 1:37]
The WWE Hall of Famer also stated that The Beast Incarnate did his job at the Royal Rumble Premium Live Event.
“So, I don’t think the boss is gonna tell Brock Lesnar. I don’t think the boss is gonna formulate the words, ‘you got heat with us Brock Lesnar.’ I don’t think that’s gonna happen. So, when I first saw this story I just shook my head and went, ‘wow! Somebody really had to go there. Brock Lesnar’s got heat.’ In what locker room? I’ve never seen Brock dress in the locker room in these last 10-15 years. He’s a big star. He’s got his own bus. So, when I hear stuff like that, in what locker room are they talking about? I think he did his job
