Brock Lesnar & Paul Heyman In-Ring Segment 

Ladies and gentlemen, his name is Paul Heyman. He’s the advocate for the beast who slammed the summer, ruled the extreme and new, reigning, defending Undisputed Universal Champion Brock Lesnar. It’s amazing how the WWE Universe would hear a lie than the truth. They told you so. Heyman came out here last week and said that Brock was going to cash in his money in the bank briefcase. That’s exactly what his client did. Boo yourselves for not listening. Someone else needs to hear an i told you so, every performer and executive in the backstage area. Heyman said that Rollins wouldn’t be Universal Champion heading into SummerSlam and they needed lineup quality opponents for his client.

As some of you know, Heyman has all the stroke around here. Heyman has decided how we are going to determine who’s going to be Brock’s challenger at SummerSlam. His client is not the easiest conqueror to negotiate with. Don’t believe him? Asks Vince McMahon or UFC. Brock fights who he wants to fight when he wants. We’ll be having a cross branded top ten battle royal to determine who will be beaten, victimized, and conquered by Brock Lesnar. Seth Rollins, Randy Orton, Big E, Cesaro, Braun Strowman, Rey Mysterio, Baron Corbin, Sami Zayn, Bobby Lashley, and Roman Reigns. Who will win?

You can place your bet at Caesar Casino and see if you can pick the next challenger to the Universal Title. Rollins strode into Philadelphia like he was Becky Lynch’s stud. When his client was done with Rollins, he was nothing more than a gelding. If you don’t understand the reference, google it, he’s not here to educate you. Especially here in Long Island. When you step into the ring with Brock Lesnar, you risk your health, your welfare, and your very manhood. Here’s a guarantee. Actually it’s a spoiler. If any one of you ever had an opportunity to step into the ring with Brock Lesnar, you will be risking your health, welfare, and manhood. In this universe, you are all Brock’s bitches.
