"You are really treating your talent like s***."

Jake 'The Snake' Roberts isn't a fan of Brock Lesnar as a part-time WWE Champion, it seems.

The AEW newcomer and WWE Hall-of-Famer was a recent guest on the FlipDaScript podcast, using the appearance to deliver the following take on 'The Beast Incarnate' (h/t Lords of Pain):-

"The thing about Brock is man, he’s not an everyday wrestler. He’s a once a year guy, or three times a year guy. And to me, you are really treating your talent like s–t to, every year come Wrestlemania time after these guys have busted their asses for 365 days, when it comes time for the big one, they bring (Lesnar) in and they have to sit down. What’s wrong with that. Well, from their viewpoint they are getting screwed, man. It’s a shame the WWE feels like they have to have Brock on the card to fill up a building."

Jake's words will likely strike a chord with many a WWE fan, as Lesnar remains one of the most divisive performers in wrestling. Still, there's a strong chance his controversial WWE Championship reign will come to an end when he meets Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36.
