Paul Heyman Believes Brock Lesnar Now Respects This WWE Superstar

That’s a big compliment. There are very few wrestlers in history who have felt like true attractions but Brock Lesnar fits the mold. Lesnar is like almost no one else in wrestling and that has been the case for a long time now. It means a lot to be considered in the same breath as someone of that caliber, but now Lesnar may have become impressed by one of his fellow current stars.

Brock Lesnar defeated Bobby Lashley in their match at Crown Jewel 2022. During a recent edition of After The Bell, Lesnar’s longtime associate Paul Heyman said he believed Lesnar now respects Lashley despite not doing so in the past. Heyman suggested that it was due to Lashley’s recent efforts, with Lesnar being left feeling that he had a fight on his hands with Lashley.

Opinion: This is one of those strange levels of praise that you do not see very often as Lesnar is not someone who frequently goes positive. It makes sense as Lesnar and Lashley have several similarities, from amateur wrestling to mixed martial arts to professional wrestling. If nothing else, it should mean good things for their future matches, as Lesnar might work a bit differently with Lashley if he thinks that highly of him.
