Former WWE Superstar Heath Slater discusses what Brock Lesnar is like behind the scenes
“Yeah, I think he gets a bad rap for it. But then again, he’s looking out for him. That’s just how he always has been and that’s how he always will be. You know, he looks out for himself and makes sure he’s okay, and there you go.
“But working Brock, you don’t really work Brock. He just throws you around and you’ve just gotta land safely and stuff. Oh no, he does [take care of opponents]. All those German suplexes, man, that I’ve taken, he’s landed me flat. Of course it hurts but it’s one of those things.
“Honestly, I don’t think he ever causes anything (backstage). Every time I’ve been in the mix with him, he’s like, ‘I don’t know, maybe this, maybe that.’ I’m just like, ‘Ah, s***, maybe I won’t die!’”
Lesnar and Slater were part of a WWE segment back during Slater’s free agent run. Slater’s famous catchphrase “I got kids” birthed here followed by Lesnar’s equally hilarious “I don’t give a s*** about your kids” reply.
