Firstly, this might sound strange, but I actually think Lesnar's real life persona helps his in-ring aura. Nobody else on the main roster currently has (or could really get away with) such a detached, haughty attitude, and it really helps make his own brand of heel work unique.

However, in ring, Brock certainly has become a lot more boring. Ever since the end of his series with the Undertaker, Lesnar's matches have been predictable and straightforward. The worst offender was his uninspiring clash with a (far more motivated) Dean Ambrose at WrestleMania 32.

In fairness, the ending of SummerSlam's main event was at least different. Had it taken place anywhere else on the card, I'd have probably agreed with the referee stoppage - but it ensured that the PPV ended on a down note.
