3 Possible Reasons Why Brock Lesnar Pulled Out Of WWE TV After SummerSlam 2023
If God Were to create a man solely for the purpose of beating down grown men like they were toddlers, he’d create Brock Lesnar. Paul Heyman, during his days with Lesnar while feuding with the Big Dog, said that the great Samoan Anoa’i family has never seen anything like Brock Lesnar. The WWE is at a point where all the old stars are gone and new ones need a while to come up. The Big 4 of the OVW—Randy Orton, John Cena, Dave Batista, and Brock Lesnar—have only got the beast Incarnate as an active superstar right now. But why was he pulled off TV after Summerslam? Here are three possible reasons:
THE SCHEDULE
It shouldn’t come as a surprise that farm boy Brock Lesnar has always been taken off WWE TV or brought on just after a PPV is over. He is a Ferrari that can’t be driven like a Fiat. A lot of WWE superstars have mentioned the tiring and unforgiving schedule that they have, which may go the full 365 days of the year. Being on the road means Superstars miss a big chunk of what goes on in their family and personal lives. Big match John once famously said in a shoot that he has missed Birthdays, weddings, and Funerals to be where he is, and nothing was handed to him. This was one reason for Lesnar’s exit, along with his desire to go to the NFL during his incredible run in the ruthless aggression era. Brock Lesnar never did work a full calendar, and after proving to the world that he could beat guys on the other side of the fence too, Brock Lesnar got what he wished, i.e., a part-time schedule with full-time pay.
He IS a limited edition
Brock Lesnar is a one of a kind species, they say. His body proportions are a matter of genetic and scientific research. Just ask Jim Ross Or Joe Rogan. Good old JR used to famously point out how The Beast’s traps were so big, it almost looked like Brock Lesnar had no neck. Before Lesnar came to the UFC, custom-made gloves weren’t a thing. Brock Lesnar couldn’t fit his hands in the XXL gloves, and a special order for XXXXL gloves had to be made. The only other heavyweight to ever get gloves that size was 7-foot-1-inch giant Choi Hong-man. The WWE understands that such equity comes once a generation and hence keeps the Undertaker’s conqueror well rested and protected. Moreover, The fact that Lesnar is a Prize Fighter and would have a huge wage demand propels WWE to use him when the ratings need a push.
CROWN JEWEL
Brock Lesnar is getting ready to dethrone the Tribal Chief at Crown Jewel. The two biggest stars in business are also the two biggest stars in the Middle East. WWE looks to break records held by other sports, such as Boxing or MMA. If reports are to be believed, each Superstar is guaranteed upwards of $5 million for their appearance at Crown Jewel. It may therefore be smart not to bring him into any other feud right now. WWE knows that if a Universal impact needs to be made, it needs to go through their biggest stars. The Head Of The Table knows Lesnar all too well, and the Promotion wants these two Movers and Shakers of the business to decide, from the Sheikhs, all the Moolah that will keep this Entity running till eternity.
