5 Biggest Brock Lesnar moments you probably didn't know were actually unscripted

#4 Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar break the script on an episode of WWE RAW

A short while before the 2020 WWE Royal Rumble, Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman made their way to RAW and announced that Lesnar would be entering the annual free-for-all at #1, despite being the top Champion. Jerry "The King" Lawler later revealed that the final few moments of the segment were unscripted.

We could just see the cameras and we just assumed that they [the viewers] are seeing us, and all of a sudden I feel this hand on my shoulder and I’m like, ‘What the hell?’ and it’s Brock Lesnar, and he’s brushing aside and walking past me.

Then I look over to my right and there, of course, is Paul Heyman, and he said, ‘Come on, come on, King, talk nice, talk nice,’ and that was totally off the top of his head and I had no idea they were going to be there.

Lesnar went on to eliminate 13 Superstars in the match before being thrown out by Drew McIntyre to a huge pop. McIntyre would go on to defeat Lesnar to win his first WWE title at The Show of Shows.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
