This one line changed the mindset of the WWE Universe towards Brock Lesnar
There aren't too many names to choose from, in the pool of Universal Champions. And yet, when Angle dubbed Brock Lesnar the 'worst Universal Champion of all time' the crowd roared in agreement. The final touch came from Paul Heyman who shockingly agreed with Kurt Angle's assertion, painting his own client in a poor light. This was a masterful stroke that made the crowd turn on the Beast Incarnate.

At that point, almost anyone was a better alternative to him...even Roman Reigns.
