Say What? Paul Heyman Interesting Response When Asked About Brock Lesnar

That’s an answer. There are certain stars in wrestling who get quite the bit of attention no matter what they do. In some cases, they will even get attention despite not being around for a very long time. That can be the situation when someone has been away for a good while, which is the case with a certain WWE legend. Now one of his associates is being asked about him.

Brock Lesnar has been absent from WWE since August 2023 following his association with Vince McMahon in the Janel Grant lawsuit. Lesnar’s associate Paul Heyman was asked about a potential Lesnar return during an interview with CBS Sports. Heyman said that he would give the same response he would have given when Lesnar was starting in WWE or when Lesnar was UFC Heavyweight Champion. Heyman explained that Lesnar valued his privacy and would neither confirm or deny anything about Lesnar. He did go on to say that it was “not a subject that is going to resolve itself by Survivor Series or by the end of the year.”

Here are Heyman’s comments, with transcription courtesy of Fightful:

“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. 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.”

Heyman is quite the star. Check out what he has done in WWE:

Opinion: That is the most Heyman response imaginable and I can’t say I’m surprised by anything he said, or in this case didn’t say. Heyman is a master of speaking and avoiding questions and he didn’t give away anything here whatsoever, other than anything involving Lesnar will not be solved anytime soon. I’m not sure if Lesnar is going to be back in WWE in the future, but Heyman certainly didn’t give us much here.
