Brock Lesnar is one of the most decorated wrestlers in the history of WWE. He is certainly a big star in the professional wrestling industry. And many fans believe The Beast Incarnate has some input in his own storylines.
For instance, WWE producer Road Dogg revealed last year that Lesnar refused to face Jindal Mahal in Survivor Series 2017. Also, former WWE wrestler Dean Ambrose once spilled some tea on the fact that Lesnar altered his match finishes a few times.
WWE Legend and Hall of Famer Eric Bischoff has now confirmed the fact that The Beast has creative control in WWE.

Brock Lesnar has creative freedom in WWE
In the episode of Strictly Business #008, the Former General Manager of Raw, Eric Bischoff, revealed a secret about Lesnar’s input in his matches and storylines.
He told the WWE Universe that WWE gives the 7-Time WWE Champion power and freedom to alter his storylines if he doesn’t like it. And The Conqueror uses his freedom to its full extent.
“Anybody that buys into the narrative that I let talent run creative [in WCW] and I gave everybody creative control. Let me tell you something, Brock Lesnar has creative control!” Bischoff said. “And he exercises the hell out of it, like the hell out of it!”, the Former Executive director of WWE SmackDown said.
Eric said this in response to the question asked by Jon Alba. Alba asked Bischoff whether he had a hand in a 2019 match where Lesnar defeated Kofi Kingston to win the WWE Championship in a matter of eight seconds.
It was then Bischoff confessed the fact that he had no say in it, and it was all Lesnar.
