Maven, who witnessed Lesnar’s rapid ascent from up close, recently shared his unfiltered thoughts on The Beast Incarnate’s early days in WWE. According to Maven, Lesnar possessed an unwavering attitude when it came to what others thought of him backstage. Maven elaborated that Lesnar’s swift elevation to superstardom swiftly dispelled any reservations or animosity his fellow wrestlers may have harbored.
“Brock got pushed to the Moon extremely quickly. Did it hold a little bit of animosity backstage? Well, probably,” Maven noted. However, Maven emphasized that any doubts about Lesnar’s place in WWE were promptly extinguished. Lesnar’s impressive amateur wrestling background and undeniable talent made it abundantly clear why WWE had thrust him into marquee storylines. In Maven’s own words, “The fact that he was pushed to the moon, A: If you cared, he didn’t give a cr*p, and B: If you had a problem with him, the office didn’t care, because they knew they were making their money off of him.”
