Brock Lesnar, the former UFC Champion and four-time WWE Champion, is a force to be reckoned with in the wrestling world. His intimidating presence in the ring has left many of his opponents quaking in their boots. However, it’s not often that we get to see the human side of The Beast Incarnate.
In a recent interview, Braun Strowman, a former World Champion, shared a fascinating anecdote about an accidental botch against Lesnar at the 2018 Royal Rumble PLE.
According to Strowman, he got a bit too enthusiastic during their match and accidentally kneed Lesnar. Needless to say, The Beast was not pleased with the mishap. In response, Lesnar took a few stiff jabs at Strowman, ultimately walking out with the title.
Strowman recalled the incident, saying, “I stiffed him on accident with a knee, and he wasn’t happy with it. So he clobbered me on the side of the head.” The Monster Among Men went on to add that he was one of the few humans who could withstand a right-hand blow from Lesnar without being knocked out cold.
This story offers a rare look into Lesnar’s unforgiving nature. He is a man who demands respect and will not hesitate to take matters into his own hands if he feels disrespected. This trait has contributed to his success both in the UFC and WWE, where he has reigned supreme as a champion.
Lesnar’s current status with WWE remains unclear. He has been absent from the promotion for nearly a year, and fans are eagerly waiting for his return.
Triple H recently addressed Lesnar’s status during the WrestleMania XL press conference, stating that The Beast Incarnate is still a part of WWE but is currently focusing on being “home being Brock.”
While this update provides little clarity on when we can expect to see Lesnar back in action, it does suggest that the door is open for his return.
Lesnar’s absence has been felt throughout the WWE universe, particularly during The Road to WrestleMania XL. Many fans were hoping to see him face Gunther in a one-on-one match during the two-night event in Philadelphia. Despite his absence, Lesnar’s legend continues to grow, and his eventual return is likely to send shockwaves through the wrestling community.
