Replying to that, Wight said, “He’s got the best backstage game since Hulk Hogan. Like when I first started wrestling, like people would whisper when Hulk Hogan came into the building. Like you know, it’s like the old Bugs Bunny cartoon, ‘Leopold, Leopold, Leopold’, you know, that kind of a thing.”

Adding to this he said, “But I would see Brock walking into the buildings when he came back after the UFC stuff, and like people would flatten themselves against the wall ’cause they were so intimidated by Brock.”

The Big Show also mentioned that Lesnar is a genuinely nice guy. He is one of the most trustworthy guys he had ever met. Additionally, he told that if he likes you; he likes you, and if he doesn’t, he doesn’t bother you.
