Paul Heyman Defends Brock Lesnar’s Slip on WWE RAW

The November 24 episode of WWE RAW ended with total chaos—but one moment had fans talking for all the wrong reasons. Brock Lesnar made his trademark entrance to close the show, only to slip and fall on the entrance ramp. While the Beast recovered like nothing happened, the clip instantly went viral.

Lesnar’s tumble happened right as he was set to join a brawl that broke out after the WarGames advantage match. That bout saw Logan Paul roll up Jimmy Uso to secure the win for the heel team—giving Reigns, Punk, Cody, Jey, and Jimmy the disadvantage heading into Survivor Series.

But it wasn’t the finish fans were left talking about. It was Lesnar’s fall, which many thought would be downplayed by WWE. Instead, Paul Heyman embraced it—and turned it into part of Lesnar’s mystique.

In a November 26 appearance on ESPN’s First Take, Heyman called Lesnar’s botch a moment of greatness:

“Actually I think it is a GOAT move, and the reason that I think it was a GOAT move is because we all fumble at some point in the game. We all do. There is no such thing as someone who doesn’t fumble in life. Brock Lesnar turned a fumble into a touchdown just like that.”

Heyman made it clear this wasn’t some embarrassing slip—it was a reminder that even in a misstep, Lesnar still delivers.

“He is the Beast. There is no one like him. He’s one of one. There was water on the entrance way. He slips, falls, rolls through, comes up and there he is smiling and just coming down to the ring for war. Who else could do that but Brock Lesnar?”

The botch might’ve looked like an accident, but in true Lesnar fashion, he absorbed it, owned it, and kept on trucking straight into the Survivor Series spotlight. Now the Beast enters WarGames not just as a physical threat—but a viral one too.

Do you agree with Paul Heyman that Lesnar’s slip was a GOAT moment? Or did it break the mystique a little too much? Drop your take in the comments and tell us how you see this playing into WarGames.
