Brock Lesnar’s name hasn’t been whispered in WWE circles for two long years. The ‘Beast Incarnate’ vanished from wrestling screens after getting tangled up in some serious legal drama. His absence left a massive hole in WWE’s roster. Nobody could replicate that unique mix of legitimate athletic credentials and pure intimidation factor that made Lesnar special.<\/p>

Then Sunday night happened at SummerSlam. Out of nowhere, Lesnar’s iconic music hit at MetLife Stadium. The crowd went absolutely ballistic. After John Cena’s emotional farewell speech following the main event, Lesnar appeared. He delivered a devastating F-5 to Cena and the wrestling world collectively lost its mind!<\/p>

But not everyone celebrated this surprise return. Critics immediately started questioning WWE<\/a>‘s decision to bring back Lesnar. The controversy stems from his connection to the ongoing legal issues surrounding former WWE boss Vince McMahon and the Janel Grant lawsuit. Many fans and analysts wondered if WWE made the right call by welcoming back someone tied to such serious allegations. But Paul Heyman wasn’t having any of the negativity. <\/p>

Paul Heyman Snaps Back At Critics<\/h2>

Lesnar’s longtime friend and former on-screen manager, Paul Heyman stepped up to defend the decision during an appearance on The Ariel Helwani Show. His message was crystal clear and brutally direct. He didn’t dance around the controversy or offer diplomatic responses. Instead, he went straight for the throat of anyone questioning Lesnar’s comeback.<\/p>

“If you were in MetLife Stadium on Sunday, you would understand that return meant a lot to that audience… They’re happy to see him, I’m happy to be part of a team that presents him. There’s always going to be critics of anything that we do…Obviously, the decision was made, it’s time to bring back Brock Lesnar. Whatever that decision is based on, I respect it. If there are critics of it, get over it.”<\/em><\/h2>

Paul Heyman says the “critics” need to get over Brock Lesnar returning and he isn’t going to be cancelled.
