Paul Heyman comments on Brock Lesnar's UFC win and post-fight antics

Paul Heyman said Brock Lesnar was just being himself when he taunted Heath Herring after the fight last weekend. "That's the real Brock Lesnar coming out," Heyman told the UK Sun. "That's Lesnar through and through. He thrives in an environment of trash talking, in your face, competition. He wants you to know he's better than you — and by the way, 'you suck!'"
"He's a monster," continued Heyman. "Look at his learning curve in the past six months. How much better will he be in another six months? He ripped into himself for what happened against Mir and he decided that it won't happen to him again. His entire gameplan was simply not to screw up."

Powell's POV: I still don't have a problem with Lesnar's post-fight routine because I think he can make a lot of money for UFC is he plays the heel role. Even he's just being himself and he comes off like a heel, then even better.
MMA purists bitched about Tito Ortiz's antics too, but he made UFC a lot of money. For that matter, I hear football fans piss and moan about Terrell Owens and Randy Moss all the time, but the masses still buy their merchandise, buy tickets to their games, or watch them on television. Perhaps wrestling fans know better anyone that heels draw money.
