During a recent appearance on “The Michael Kay Show”, WWE Champion Brock Lesnar commented on the connection he’s formed with Paul Heyman, his willingness to learn throughout his career, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On the evolution of his relationship with Paul Heyman: “I got called up on the road from OVW, I was a prospect in developmental and they brought me up to live events. Paul was on something to do with the creative team. Paul saw me taking it all in in the stands, came up, and introduced himself, we sat down and had a connection. He’s a dear friend in real life. A backstabbing friend right now. We all have somebody like that. [Our relationship has] developed.”
On his willingness to learn throughout his career: “A lot of people did [help me]. I always had an approachable personality and the willingness to want to learn. I was never scared to ask the stupid questions. I didn’t care if I got the answer no. I want to know, ‘will you watch my match? Tell me how I can do this different.’ If they told me to screw off, so be it. I’ve always been coachable. Always. I didn’t get this way by paving my own path. My eyes and ears were wide open. If my mouth was open it was asking ‘who, what, why when, where.’ That was it.”
