And by extension Vince at this point
He just decimated what was the top guy in the company and left him in a bloody mess so if even Roman isn't all that protected against Brock than they don't stand a chance
For whatever reason he clearly has Vince's ear or Vince has abandoned everything for him but they are clearly not made to look on his level and beneath him
He'a essentially beaten everyone imaginable in the company and his most decisive loss was against Goldberg whom he promptly retired

Maybe guys like Rollins/Balor who can conceivable be top guys might feel aggrieved that Brock is hogging main events while not working as hard as them and possibly taking a spot from them.
But like Baron Corbin's booking is not being effected by Lesnar so I doubt he cares either way.

I'm sure the ones on RAW who have to have their entire show's momentum put on hold for him absolutely are.

I don't have their financial reports to prove this one way or the other, but is his presence and positioning as champion worth their investment in him? Because if it was making them money, I can't see the boys being too upset. If it's not moving the needle either way, though, then yeah, I'd be kinda pissed if I were them.

And Brock doesn’t give a F.
Unless there’s a 5 after it.

Well there is another group mindset of thinking wrestling schedules suck so good on Brock for getting such a great deal for himself.

I'm sure all the Shield, Balors, Wyatts, guys like that on Raw at least have some type of feeling towards how he's holding the belt. I know The Shield definitely feels that way given they've all faced Lesnar the most and still didn't beat him, none of the others on the brand are at that level to be held back. If you're at that upper midcard/main event level why wouldn't you be mad at the guy who's away holding the belt back? They're not making any money in this case.

It's just he's never at the top of the list because every "Suplex City" variation is counted as a different shirt.

f*** man, you can't make fans happy.
Roman wins: HE'S BEING FORCED DOWN OUR THROATS
Brock wins: HE'S A POLITICIAN WHO HAS VINCE'S EAR!

Well Roman has said before him and Heyman was difficult to work with when they were trying to plan 31. I don't think Seth has spoken on Lesnar too much but Reigns and Ambrose are his boys and i'm sure he's on their side since Seth has really never been in a spot to be killed like they have. Ambrose has already made his feelings known about Brock and how he was lazy and denying all their spots for their mania match

I think a lot of the top guys are probably relieved that the title didn't go to the guy that's been pushed to the moon and was perceived to be VKM's hand selected champion.

I think he might have made a comment towards that in the past but I'm not sure.

Not as much as they're probably tired of Vince.

Which I wouldn't blame him for I can understand WWE sucking The Rock's dick since he is the legit number one movie star in the world and he's only there for one TV show once a year if they are lucky

f*** man, you can't make fans happy. Roman wins: HE'S BEING FORCED DOWN OUR THROATS Brock wins: HE'S A POLITICIAN WHO HAS VINCE'S EAR! Well, yeah, when the crowd hates both options going in neither one of them's going to make people happy. Brock hatred isn't anything new, he's been getting bashed on here for years and crowds have been steadily less and less into him ever since the Braun feud.

Brock hatred isn't anything new, he's been getting based on here for years and crowds have been steadily less and less into him ever since the Braun feud. Add in the fact it doesn't even look like he's willing to "play ball" and he's getting sloppier and lazier with each match. He was reckless with Roman tonight a few times and we've seen in his past matches they are 10 mins or less in which one F5 does the job and it's done
