He is ‘The Beast Incarnate,’ a multiple-time WWE champion, a former UFC Heavyweight champion, a NCAA Division I heavyweight wrestling champion, and a scary, scary man. He is Brock Lesnar, who has been associated with the WWE since making his debut for the company in 2002. Considered “the Next Big Thing” upon his debut, Brock proved the hype was real five months after his first match by winning the WWE Championship. At age 25, he was the youngest champion in the title’s history. In addition to terrorizing Superstars in the ring, Brock has tried his hand at the NFL. He left the WWE in 2004 and was named a defensive tackle for the Minnesota Vikings, but was cut prior to the start of the season. He also wrestled for New Japan Pro Wrestling, winning the IWGP Heavyweight championship in his first match. In 2006, he began his MMA career. In 2008, he defeated Randy Couture to become the UFC Heavyweight Champion. He lost the title to Cain Velasqueze at UFC 121 in 2010. He has been dubbed ‘the most accomplished athlete in professional wrestling history’ and there are few who would dispute this.
