“F**king Crime”: Brock Lesnar’s Absence at Paul Heyman’s Hall of Fame Induction Before WrestleMania XL Leaves Fans Fuming

WWE had announced Paul Heyman as its first Hall of Fame inductee of 2024 some time ago. The primary spokesperson of Roman Reigns has been on a roll ever since he became The Wiseman of The Bloodline. Nevertheless, Heyman earned his chance with the biggest heel faction of WWE via sheer hard work. But, his success also carries the imprint of his former client, Brock Lesnar. 

Paul Heyman was first introduced to The WWE Universe as the despicable manager of The Beast Incarnate. Several other people had their stints as managers in WWE. The Heyman and Brock Lesnar duo struck a chord with everyone. Thus, many fans believed that Lesnar would be credited at his HoF induction ceremony. However, the WWE enthusiasts were left absolutely furious when they noticed that the superstar wasn’t involved by WWE at all.

When Paul Heyman name-dropped an absent Brock Lesnar

Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar formed one of the best teams when almost every WWE Superstar feared a forced visit to Suplex City. Heyman has been working for WWE for a very long time, but he managed things from behind the scenes.

Thanks to his partnership with Lesnar, he got a role alongside Roman Reigns when he was almost dismissed from WWE during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Now, he has taken his rightful position in the WWE Hall of Fame with Roman Reigns presiding over his induction ceremony. While every WWE fan knew that Brock Lesnar couldn’t have been invited physically, they expected to see him in Heyman’s video package. 

Paul Heyman mentioned Brock Lesnar in his induction speech. Moreover, he introduced him as the man who first conquered the legendary WrestleMania streak of The Undertaker. But, apart from that, it seemed that he deliberately refrained from conveying a lot about Lesnar.

WWE Universe slams WWE for snubbing The Beast Incarnate

The WWE Universe is one of the most passionate and loyal fanbase in the world. But, they are also very emotional and instantly react to anything they feel isn’t right. This time, their fury over snubbing Brock Lesnar spilled out vehemently.

One of the fans outright labeled his omission from Heyman’s video package a crime.

One of the fans even said that Brock Lesnar should have been the one to welcome Paul Heyman into the Hall of Fame.

This sentiment was shared by another Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman fan who even shared a GIF of the manager-wrestler duo.

Fans appreciated Paul Heyman mentioning Brock Lesnar in his speech. But, they also thought that this meant Lesnar may never be back in WWE.

Lastly, instead of anger, a fan was just very sad to see Brock Lesnar missing from Heyman’s HoF video package.

Clearly the fans want to see more of Lesnar! But what are your thoughts on this? Let them flow in the comments.
