Paul Heyman SHOOTS on Brock Lesnar’s rivals in Facebook rant

We all know Paul Heyman is the master of the verbal promo. As it turns out, he’s quite handy at Facebook promos too.

The Advocate cut loose on his client Brock Lesnar’s prospective challengers in a social media tirade which prompted swift retaliation from the Universal Champ’s potential foes.

Heyman threw out a tweet with a link to his Facebook page laying down the gauntlet to Roman Reigns and Bobby Lashley, while taking pot-shots at Elias, Braun Strowman, Bobby Roode, Finn Balor, Kevin Owens, Kurt Angle and even the WWE.com writing team…

With all due respect, it's time for a lot of people within @WWE to simply grow up! To wit, I offer you this: https://t.co/KAIXxDWHEM … pic.twitter.com/sTqKQJJBNB

Here is a full transcript of Heyman’s rant.

“Exactly what is the criterion being used as the hiring process at WWE.com? I truly believe all those who fail to find employment through Human Resources end up in World Wrestling Entertainment‘s version of modified English housed in the digital marketing division. Their latest clickbait is to put up a poll asking you, the WWE Universe, to voice your individual and collective opinion as to whom should be Brock Lesnar’s next challenger. It amazes me that no one has smartened up these recklessly ignorant wannabes and explained to them that Brock Lesnar does what Brock Lesnar wants to do.

“Who’s going to challenge Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship? Whomever is big enough box office to lure Brock Lesnar into a match that makes Brock Lesnar the type of money he commands for a fight. Who’s that going to be? Roman Reigns? The second generation superstar who was second to beat Undertaker at WrestleMania, who failed in his second WrestleMania attempt to take the top title from Brock Lesnar, and similarly failed in his second attempt this year alone in Saudi Arabia? No, Brock Lesnar has no interest in the Sloppy Second Samoan!

“Bobby Lashley? The Man Who Would Be Lesnar? The supposed college standout who won the NAIA Championship because he knew the competition for the Division 1 Championship was too fierce? By the way, remember, when Bobby won the NAIA Title that no one really cared about, Brock Lesnar was making national headlines winning the D1 Heavyweight Championship. When Bobby saw Brock Lesnar ascend to become the biggest box office attraction in UFC, Bobby knew he had no chance against Brock, so he hid behind Scot Coker’s tomato cans in Strikeforce and Bellator, hoping to look good enough to graduate into a once-in-a-lifetime payday position against Brock Lesnar, who has never even heard about Bobby except the few times I mention Bobby’s name to Brock, and always as the punchline to a joke about the pitiful level of pseudo-athletes who think they are even in Brock’s league.

“And then there’s the list of Kurt Angle’s Lesnar-less roster members who will forever practice the intellectual masturbation of thinking they are worthy of sharing the bill with the single biggest attraction in either WWE or UFC. When will the decision makers in WWE grow up and realize the unique status Brock Lesnar has achieved? Why do you think I adamantly refuse to ADVOCATE for anyone else? I don’t want to Walk with Elias. I don’t care who Gets Braun Strowman’s Hands; don’t want to know why Bobby Roode thinks he’s Glorious; have no interest in witnessing Finn Balor prove he’s the best in-ring performer on RAW; no inclination to watch Kevin Owens KO his midcard status; don’t know why Kurt Angle even has a job, and don’t want to Burn it Down with Seth Freakin’ Rollins. I want to CONQUER with Brock Lesnar.

“And until there’s someone who proves themselves to be able to carry their part of the main event, I will continue to ADVOCATE that my client, the reigning defending undisputed Universal Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar rejects every request by WWE to exploit his box office appeal and concentrate on more pressing, “Ultimate” opportunities that exist at the moment!”

Lashley was quick to respond to Heyman’s tweet and then Roman Reigns also weighed in.

This isn’t a college mat or an octagon. This is the squared circle, aka My Yard. So do yourself a favor Bob, don’t assume you’ll make it out of #ExtremeRules. And @HeymanHustle come say all this at #RAW. Please. https://t.co/1CWo6GHLhx

We haven’t heard much from either Heyman or Lesnar since Brock’s last appearance in WWE at The Greatest Royal Rumble on April 27.

But the microphone maestro Paul E has shown once again that he’s also a master of keeping the attention on his client, even when he’s not around in person.

As Heyman rarely cuts loose in such a way on social media, it’s bound to fuel speculation about who Brock’s next challenger might be. Increased interest means increased TV ratings, as well as WWE Network subscriptions and PPV buy rates for Extreme Rules when Reigns and Lashley will be part of a multi-man match to decide Brock’s next opponent. So you can bet Heyman’s tirade came with the full WWE stamp of approval!

Would you like to see a Brock Lesnar vs Bobby Lashley WWE Universal Title match or would you rather see Lesnar defend against any of the other names Heyman mentioned?
