WWE star Brock Lesnar’s lawyer sends legal notice to Ranveer Singh

Mumbai, June 20

Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh has been warned by WWE wrestler Brock Lesnar’s manager and advocate Paul Heyman for using a phrase made popular by him.

The matter stems from Ranveer using a known phrase that Heyman and Lesnar apparently devised for their time in the WWE.

Heyman would root for Lesnar by shouting: “Eat, Sleep, Conquer, Repeat,” every time the latter stepped inside the ring.

The “Padmaavat” star used the phrase with a twist when he posted an image with Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya from the India-Pakistan match at the ICC Cricket World Cup 2019.

Eat.
Sleep.
Dominate.
Repeat.
The name is Hardik. Hardik Pandya. 🏏✌🏾✊🏾 @hardikpandya7 ma boi #unstoppable pic.twitter.com/B5oRzedTg3

Ranveer captioned his photograph along with Pandya: “Eat. Sleep. Dominate. Repeat. The name is Hardik. Hardik Pandya. Hardik Pandya ma boi, unstoppable.”

This led Heyman to point out on Twitter: “Ranveer Singh are you F’N kidding me? 1 - It’s eat, sleep conquer, repeat. 2 - Copyright #YourHumbleAdvocate and Brock Lesnar. 3 - I am litigious 4 - Eat Sleep Deposition repeat.” Ranveer is yet to reply to Heyman. — IANS
