8 Things To Expect Now Brock Lesnar Has Re-Signed With WWE
5. A Split With Heyman
Just because these two are a perfect pairing and the best wrestler/manager combo since Jim Cornette and The Midnight Express doesn't mean that WWE won't find a reason to drive a wedge between the two sooner or later. Brock's only sweakness as a pro wrestler is his in-ring promo ability - he excels during pre-taped segments however - and Paul fills that role for him so amazingly, putting together a body of work that can contend with and arguably outrank the all-time greats like Dusty Rhodes and Jake Roberts. Breaking them up seems like a horrible idea, but in wrestling nothing lasts forever and the creative department has proven to have a fetish for tearing apart nice things with very little reasoning or afterthought. Eventually Brock's best friend will betray him (it might even happen at WrestleMania 31), and wage war on his former client through a new "Paul Heyman guy." Let's just hope it isn't The Big Show.
Brad Hamilton is a writer, musician and marketer/social media manager from Atlanta, Georgia. He's an undefeated freestyle rap battle champion, spends too little time being productive and defines himself as the literary version of Brock Lesnar.
