5 things we learned from WWE TV this week: Brock Lesnar's status, SummerSlam and more

#1 It's clear why WWE fans dislike Brock Lesnar

One of the main reasons why WWE fans dislike Brock Lesnar is because he is a rarity on TV, meaning the Universal Champion is not featured on a weekly basis on WWE's flagship show, Monday Night Raw.

During an interview with The Hindu last week, Seth Rollins trashed Brock Lesnar as Universal Champion, saying, “No kid in the world grows up wanting to be a ‘Brock Lesnar. He might be a great wrestler/ performer, but he doesn’t inspire anyone, doesn’t do anything for the brand or business, and most of all, he’s a terrible champion.”

In addition to fans disliking Brock Lesnar's limited WWE schedule, it became apparent on Raw this week that another reason why fans dislike Lesnar is because when he does show up on WWE TV, he rarely "participates". Brock Lesnar segments on Raw usually entail Lesnar standing in the middle of the ring doing nothing while Paul Heyman cuts promos, and it was evident on Raw this week that Lesnar has a tremendous ability to entertain when he is actually participating in the show.
