Then: Brock Lesnar had returned to WWE in 2012, and was one of the top attractions on the pro wrestling map yet again. At SummerSlam, he clashed with CM Punk in a well-received 'No DQ' brawl that also included some tasty interference from Paul Heyman.

Brock won the match.

Now: Lesnar is a part-timer who acts as some sort of human 'in emergency, break class' figure for WWE creative. He's currently on course to clash with Cody Rhodes at SummerSlam 2023, and will remain a top name in company circles for as long as he damn well pleases.

Side note: Paul Heyman traded runs with Lesnar and Punk for a spot beside Roman Reigns. That's erm...worked out well for him!
