#3 Paul Heyman managing Chris Benoit instead of Brock Lesnar
Paul Heyman has played a huge role in making Brock Lesnar a successful WWE Superstar. In fact, he’s one of the reasons why Lesnar is still making millions every single year from WWE while working part-time. Here’s how he saved WWE producers from ruining The Beast’s gimmick early on in the company:
“[Brock Lesnar] is in the ring [in OVW] as an NCAA Division I Heavyweight Champion and people are saying to him, ‘You should be a Russian’ [and] ‘You should just stand there.’ Like he’s the Warlord or something. Come on! Are you kidding me?”
“Here’s Taz. He goes, ‘They’re giving you the wrong advice, brother.’ Taz brings him to me. I look at Brock and say, ‘You realize that if you do what they’re telling you, you’ll leave here in six months. You want me to talk to Vince about this?'” (Credits for the quotes)
Heyman was originally set to manage Chris Benoit but later, he was able to change the plans after having a talk with Vince McMahon. And we can see how well he’s managed Lesnar since the beginning. If it hadn’t been for Heyman, the former Universal Champion might have become another wasted talent in WWE.
