[[Brock Lesnar]], born 1977, is a [[Professional Wrestling|pro-wrestler]] and former MMA Fighter (retiring in late 2011). Lesnar won the NCAA Amateur Wrestling Heavyweight Championship in 2002, before debuting with [[World Wrestling Entertainment|WWE]] in 2002. He left WWE in 2004, after winning three WWE Championships, to try out for American football. He played pre-season for the Minnesota Vikings, but was cut before the season proper began. He then returned to wrestling and went on to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship in Japan. After moving to [[Mixed Martial Arts]], Lesnar won the [[UFC]] Heavyweight Championship in 2008 from [[Randy Couture]], later losing it to Cain Velasquez in 2010. He served as a coach on ''[[The Ultimate Fighter]]'' opposite Junior Dos Santos.
Lesnar returned to the WWE on the April 2nd 2012 episode of Raw, as he came out & hit [[John Cena]] with the [[Finishing Move|F-5]].
Line 15 ⟶ 16:
* [[Badass]]: Won his first WWE Title - from [[Dwayne Johnson|The Rock]] - ''five months'' after his WWE debut, won his IWGP Title in his first match for the company, won his UFC Title in his third UFC fight (and fourth MMA fight in general). Oh yes, he's a badass.
** [[Badass Beard]]: The "mountain man" look he sported in the run up to his fight with Cain Velasquez.
** [[Badass Boast]]: "I Am The Next Big Thing!" Also doubles as his [[
** During the 2004 No Way Out intro he uttered this epic line:
{{quote|'''[[Brock Lesnar]]''': I've beaten [[Ric Flair|leg]][[Hulk Hogan|ends]], [[Dwayne Johnson|great ones]], [[The Undertaker|phenoms]]! [[Eddie Guerrero|You]] [[Horrible Judge of Character|are]] [[Insult Backfire|no one!]]}}
Line 41 ⟶ 42:
* [[Farm Boy]]: In South Dakota.
* [[Game-Breaking Injury]]: His (ongoing) battle with diverticulitis has hindered his MMA career quite badly, leading to his retirement.
* [[Good Is Not Nice]]: Said that Reigns "didn't deserve shit" after Roman challenged him for the Universal Championship. Despite its harshness, the fact was that Roman had lost his match against Brawn Strowman the previous night, so any challenge coming from Roman towards the world title seemed to be a little out of place now.
* [[Groin Attack]]: Has no qualms about running up behind someone (say, [[John Cena]] for example) and kicking him right in the balls.
* [[Hair of Gold]]
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Three major examples.
** After Survivor Series 2002, after Heyman betrayed him so The Big Show could win the WWE Championship.
** After Battleground 2016, when the Undertaker made Rollins and the referee disappear from the ring so Brock couldn't pin Rollins for the WWE Championship and proceeded to low-blow Brock when Lesnar attacked him as retaliation.
** Did an instant one, with no motivation for it, after defeating Goldberg cleanly at Wrestlemania 33. Despite Heyman still acting arrogant in promos, Lesnar stopped cheating, and even began to act respectfully towards the fans, like handshaking or fist bumping them.
* [[Hot Dad]]
* [[Humiliation Conga]]: First he gets tackled by [[Goldberg]] at the 2004 ''No Way Out'' during his title defense against [[Eddie Guerrero]]. Then Guerrero performs a frog splash onto his injured body and pins him to become the WWE Champion. ''Then'' [[Goldberg]] defeats him in their grudge match at ''WrestleMania XX'' (which was, not incidentally, both men's last match in WWE) - and finally, just to twist in the knife, [[Stone Cold Steve Austin]] "stuns" both him ''and'' Goldberg to massive cheers from the crowd. Then he attempts to break into the NFL and fails, and then he attempts a return to the WWE but is turned away, and then he tries to wrestle in Japan but can't get out of his no-compete clause... It took awhile for Brock to get back on his feet.
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Can be a [[Jerk Jock]] at his worst, but is a cool guy if you don't diss him. He seems to have become this especially after hard fought win against Carwin and losing title to Velasquez.
* [[Knight of Cerebus]]: During his 2012 WWE return.
* [[Laser-Guided Karma]]: Gave Ricochet a low blow during a 'Raw' segment before [[Royal Rumble]] 2020 [[For the Evulz]]. Got kicked in the groin by the same Ricochet during the match, what eventually cost him the match a few seconds when Drew McIntyre used his finisher, the Claymore, to kick Brock from the top rope while Brock was still feeling the strike.
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: Lesnar is known for both his extreme size
** And, of course, he was one in WWE first.
* [[Ironic Echo]]: Lesnar dominates his debut match with Frank Mir but gets caught via an inexperienced mistake and loses the match. Fast forward to 2012: {{spoiler|it happens to him again in his return match against the now-veteran John Cena, destroying him for 20 minutes before running into a chain-wrapped fist.}}
Line 58 ⟶ 65:
* [[Smug Super]]
* [[Suplex Finisher]]
* [[Teeth-Clenched Teamwork]]: He can barely tolerate [[Paul Heyman]], and just seem to keep him around to not need to talk that much. It is implied Brock 'never' forgave Heyman for his betrayal at [[Survivor Series]] '2002'.
* [[Training from Hell]]
* [[Underwear of Power]]: In his wrestling days.
