Brock Lesnar has a reputation for being one of the most anti-social WWE Superstars. He prefers to spend his time away from the ring with his family and is not spotted in public much.
Similarly, Lesnar likes to keep to himself backstage. It has allowed him to remain one of the most intimidating forces both inside and outside the ring. However, The Beast Incarnate has helped many wrestlers who have approached him over the years.
In an appearance on Sportskeeda's The Wrestling Outlaws, former WWE star EC3 told Vince Russo and Dr. Chris Featherstone about how he approached Lesnar for some advice. He said that the former Universal Champion can sniff people’s weaknesses but gives good advice if he is approached.

"If you are not afraid of people that can beat you to death. If you have confidence in yourself, he's very approachable. He's also the kind of guy that can sniff weakness, and he probably sniffs a lot of weakness in today's wrestling," said EC3.

Brock Lesnar and Shelton Benjamin have been known to be good friends for a long time. The two worked together in Ohio Valley Wrestling before making their main roster debuts separately.
Benjamin is regarded as one of the best technical wrestlers who is underutilized by the company. However, he has proven himself in the ring each time he’s been given a chance by WWE.
In a conversation on Fightful, Benjamin revealed that Brock Lesnar gave him some valuable advice that likely extended his career. He said that The Beast Incarnate advised him against using the 450 Splash as it had injured him in the past.
"The last time I did it I basically got injured," said Benjamin. "I banged my elbow and I actually had to have surgery on it. That’s pretty much why I took it out of the repertoire. Then, going further, there’s a lot of stuff I used to do that I just stopped doing. Believe it or not, this is advice that Brock gave me. It was very good advice. He said, ‘If you can hit it ten out of ten times, do it. If you can do it nine out of ten times, never try to do it on TV.'"
The former Universal Champion’s advice proved to be extremely valuable as Benjamin has had a lengthy career in WWE. Fans can hope to see the two friends work on-screen someday.

"He's scary, he is definitely scary when you first meet him... he's an intimidating man for sure, like massive. But, like, once you get to know him he's also very sweet. So, if I wanted advice too from him, I could go to him and he would be like, 'Sure I'll give it to you,' you know. He's really wonderful too," Paige said.
Paige had good things to say about The Beast Incarnate who hasn’t shied away from giving good advice to his juniors. Brock Lesnar's advice would have helped her work better in the ring.

Those are just a couple of examples. There’s a lot of guys in the locker room that I respect and listen to," Moss said.

The German Suplex is one of Brock Lesnar’s signature moves in WWE. He is known to weaken his opponents with the maneuver before ending them with his finisher, the F5.
At Survivor Series 2017, Lesnar faced off against AJ Styles in a dream match. The Phenomenal One is known to be one of the greatest wrestlers of all time and does not need much advice or guidance from others.

"It was great! We kinda discussed how we wanted the beginning to go, and I threw in my two cents and he told me not to jump when he gives me a German [Suplex] or he would throw me out of the ring! I said 'okay.' I think Brock showed me a lot of respect in the match that we had. It was great, I thought it was one of the better matches that I've had and I was very happy with it," Styles said.
Their 15-minute bout stole the show at the 2017 Survivor Series. Fans are hoping to see the two men go head-to-head once again after putting on a great show at the Premium Live Event.
