Brock Lesnar made his WWE debut in back in 2002. Starting out in OVW,believe it or not, he lost more matches than he won. However, it wasn't too long before he caught the eye of the officials and began his WWE journey as "The Beast Incarnate".

Looking at his WWE win-loss record, it wouldn't be wrong for one to say that Lesnar is the only superstar since Hulk Hogan that WWE has protected so much - It's not very often the fans sees a superstar defeating Brock Lesnar in the middle of the ring.

Speaking of win-loss record, one would also remember that Hulk Hogan hasn't won every single match he's been a part of, either. Therefore, it makes sense for Lesnar to have lost a few matches in his main roster WWE career, as well.

With that being said, let's take a look at this short-list of the superstars who have defeated Brock Lesnar, even though he is "The Beast Incarnate".


#5 John Cena

On the night after WrestleMania XXVIII, Brock Lesnar made his comeback to WWE following his 8-year hiatus from the company.

During a promo segment at the end of the episode, Lesnar came out and attacked John Cena, commencing his first feud after his return.

Due to the beating that Lesnar gave to Cena, a match was scheduled between the two superstars for the Extreme Rules PPV 2012, in a - what else? - extreme rules match.

Heading into the PPV, Lesnar was a clear favorite to win this match. However, in the end, it was Cena who surprisingly snagged the victory, even though Lesnar dominated the entire match by destroying Cena single-handedly.

The surprising thing is, Cena defeating Lesnar at the PPV was just pointless, since it was Lesnar's first match after his return and there was absolutely no reason for him to lose this major match.

Nonetheless, John Cena still goes down in history as one of the few superstars who have defeated Brock Lesnar.
