Paul Heyman Recalls Being Shocked At The Size Of Brock Lesnar On The RAW After WrestleMania

Paul Heyman was not prepared for how large Brock Lesnar looked on the RAW after WrestleMania.

Speaking on Tetragrammaton with Rick Rubin, Heyman remembered how he was in the ring with Roman Reigns on the April 3rd episode of WWE Raw, and when Lesnar came out, he was taken aback at how large Brock was. Lesnar had appeared to come to the aid of Cody Rhodes for a tag team main event with Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa.

“I was standing in the ring this past Monday. We are taping this on the Wednesday after WrestleMania. I’m standing in the ring with Roman Reigns, who’s an impressive individual. Let’s just state that for the record. I mean, this is not a slouch standing there. This is someone that looks like a man because he is one. I’m standing in the ring, and Brock Lesnar’s music hits, and Brock walks out in his fight gear. I looked at Roman, and I went, ‘Holy fuck, look at that!’ After all these years, I’m still not used to being out there watching him come at us. I’m used to being on the other side of that. I’m used to walking out with him, looking at the faces of people going, ‘Holy fuck, look at that!’ Roman looks at me and he says, ‘Yeah, now you know what we all saw.’ I just said, ‘Man, he is freaking huge. Holy shit! What the fuck?’ When I said that, I realized the camera is picking us up, and I did say, ‘My Tribal Chief.’ He just looks at me, and he says, ‘Man, it just never ceases to amaze me. Standing here, watching him, and when he circles you like a shark, you realize I’m in for a physical evening,”

In the end however, Brock would turn on Cody Rhodes and is still feuding with Cody as of this writing.
