Brock Lesnar's on-air representative, Paul Heyman, said on Mark Madden's radio show this week that Brock Lesnar is healthy for the first time in his adult life.

Heyman said Lesnar recently had blood work done, which revealed that Lesnar had the diverticulitis disease in his system throughout his adult his life. However, because Lesnar's body is freakishly strong, his system fought off the disease until his health scare in late 2009.

The rise of the disease impacted Lesnar's health and led to the end of his UFC career, which brought Lesnar back to WWE in 2012.

- Also contained in Heyman's interview with Madden on 105.9 "the X" in Pittsburgh was a discussion of the Lesnar vs. The Undertaker rumor for WrestleMania 30.

"If the Taker rumors are true, they're very interesting," Heyman said before entering storyline mode. "It's the right year and right guy for Lesnar to walk away and crush The Streak."

This is different from what Heyman presented last year when asked whether Lesnar should face Taker at WrestleMania 29.

In April 2013, Heyman told Brian Fritz of BetweentheRopes.com that he doesn't think Lesnar vs. Taker should happen at WrestleMania because Lesnar isn't concerned about beating The Streak. Rather, he's more interested in ending a career, which was the build-up to Lesnar vs. Triple H at last year's Mania.

- Heyman also discussed Lesnar needing to be presented as a special star, which has not been the case in the build-up to Lesnar vs. Big Show at the Royal Rumble.

"It doesn't make sense for Lesnar to be presented as just another person," Heyman said. "He should be set aside as distinct, different, and once-in-a-lifetime."

- Asked about his relationship with the McMahon Family right now, Heyman said he "does his own thing." Heyman said he smiles to them at the Gorilla position before going on the air, then walks backstage. Heyman said not being around each other for "20 hours a day" like in the past is probably why he's still around in WWE.

- Heyman said he has the drive and ambition to "do something extraordinary" like run a promotion or company (even non-wrestling) again, but he does not see opportunities in the marketplace.

- Heyman endorsed the Network plan to use WrestleMania as a lure to build an initial subscriber base. Heyman said the Network's six-month commitment means Mania will be tied in with the next five PPVs. Whereas, most years, a significant portion of the audience buys Mania and does not buy another PPV after Mania.
