Jim Ross recently discussed Brock Lesnar’s departure from WWE back in 2004. He believes that The Beast Incarnate was misguided by the locker room talks. The fact that he was also burnt out and needed a break from the wrestling business were the major factors behind Lesnar’s decision to leave WWE.

"Well, he was burned out. He was getting bad advice from some of his peers, I believe, and he had this dream of playing in the National Football League, and apparently, he had that dream for many, many years."

Brock Lesnar enjoyed a lot of success in WWE, and he quickly rose through the ranks. However, his monumental success also affected his schedule that became hectic, and drove Lesnar to overwork. As a result, he decided to take a break, and the reports suggest that he was not happy with WWE right before leaving. Fans are interested in knowing more about his current plans in WWE, especially concerning a potential match against Bobby Lashley.

Former RAW GM Eric Bischoff recently stated that Bret Hart was not a ‘main-event draw’ in WWE. He also said that Bret Hart is the ‘least successful World Heavyweight Champion’ in WWE despite being the face of the company. Here’s what Bischoff had to say:

"His drawing power in the WWE was well documented by anyone who wants to do the research in an objective way. He was not a main-event draw in WWE. That’s it, that’s a fact, it’s not my fault, I wasn’t there, I didn’t book him – it just didn’t work. He was the champion, he was the face of the company, and he was the least successful World Heavyweight Champion or at least one of in WWE history – which is a long freakin’ history. It is what it is."

Both Bischoff and Bret Hart have had harsh words to say about each other in the past as they both seem to disagree a lot on topics related to WWE. Bischoff had even said that Bret Hart was boring to watch.
