Brock Lesnar is definitely a box-office attraction and also the most dangerous performer inside the squared circle and the octagon. While he is a dominant force, the fact of the matter remains that since his return to the WWE he has worked as a part-timer..
This unavailability of 'The Beast Incarnate' was also used by the WWE to promote Roman Reigns and several storylines. Paul Heyman's claims about Brock Lesnar are wrong that he is the defending champion because the performer is majorly out of action from WWE pay-per-views including TLC happening this Sunday.
While his unavailability is majorly missed and questioned, the fact that WWE has been able to pull off his absence in the right fashion has made his presence irrelevant as not just the champion, but also as a performer.
In this article, I discuss 3 reasons why Brock Lesnar's absence is a boom not doom for the WWE:
#1 Give Other Stories More Space
WWE is focused around promoting Brock Lesnar as the next big thing, and this has made his time on tv more painful. While his advocate is the best thing on tv, the champion isn't, and his absence has helped other wrestlers take center stage.
In case of a feud involving Brock Lesnar, he gets more hype and value via various platforms, and other performers are left out. In his absence, a lot of other storylines have taken center stage and also got a good response from the WWE Universe.
The storyline involving Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and the one involving Braun Strowman and Baron Corbin have seen more value due to this absence, and it would be better if he stays away and loses the Universal Championship at Royal Rumble.
#2 Create new top Superstars
Drew McIntyre has been a part of the main roster for some time now but was majorly involved in secondary feuds on the show. He worked with Dolph Ziggler and other superstars on Raw but was never considered a major player until Brock Lesnar started showing up even less since winning the Universal Championship at WWE Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia.
As unexpected as the decision sounded to all, the fact that he was able to win the title and then go on a break until he shows up at Royal Rumble, the company was able to push Drew McIntyre as the next big thing in the company, and help Braun Strowman rise to greater heights. This also gave us compelling segments with the acting general manager, and we were able to see a heelish Baron Corbin who is possibly going to lose the match at WWE TLC.
#3 More Time for Matches
Brock Lesnar has majorly wrestled any good quality matches in a long time. His match with Goldberg was a disaster, and it sounded more like a squash match than a real one. He is always silent and lets Paul Heyman do the talking. This mixed with his performance inside matches is a bad thing for the WWE.
The fans pay money to see some tough competition, whereas Brock Lesnar is involved in matches that don't happen for a longer duration and seem to bring no value to the match at any show. When he isn't around on a pay-per-view, it would give other performers more space to perform inside the squared circle and showcase their abilities unlike a performer that either doesn't perform on a regular basis or does squash matches.
It is a good idea that he isn't at WWE TLC, and we have more competition on the show.
