#4 ‘Paul, say something stupid’
Two weeks before CM Punk and Brock Lesnar faced each other at SummerSlam 2013 in a match billed as “The Best versus The Beast”, Punk gained the upper hand on Lesnar, Curtis Axel, and Paul Heyman during a confrontation on Raw.

Backstage interviewer Renee Young caught up with Heyman, as well as his two clients at the time, later in the show and asked for their response after Punk attacked Lesnar with a steel chair.
The question prompted these words from Lesnar:
“That’s the best of the best of the best of the best of the best that this world has to offer? I’m the BEAST… and the best… in the world…
...Paul, say something stupid.”
This was during a time when, much like now, Lesnar rarely spoke on WWE television, so his “Paul, say something stupid” line immediately got a huge laugh from the audience.
