Can anyone beat Brock Lesnar?
Brock Lesnar is a monster.
My friends Erik Hanson and Keagan C. Thulu were discussing recently who, if anyone, currently signed to any part of WWE could stop the unstoppable Beast Incarnate. We debated late into the night, batting around names and scenarios until our throats were raw but the lively conversation was ended when Erik wanted to just listen to Bolt Thrower and Keagan said “this is stupid” and went home.
Sure, he can be beaten, but not easily, and not lately. The last time he lost was in a triple threat match with Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose was February 21st, 2015, at Fastlane, and he wasn’t even pinned. Before that, he lost to The Undertaker at last year’s Summerslam, but that was under very suspect circumstances.
His only loss in 2013 came at the hands of Seth Rollins interfering in his match with John Cena. I still give the win to The Beast because he was the only one standing at the end of the night. If you wanna find someone who pinned Lesnar in a gimmick free-match, you have to back over a decade when the late, great, Eddie Guerrero took his WWE Championship in one of my, and many others, favorite matches.
Since his return in 2012, any loss was either some kind of DQ, an “extreme rules” match or something similar (they’re all the same), a triple threat, or a Royal Rumble.
So is there anyone on Raw that can beat Lesnar? How about Smackdown? NXT? The entire universe? I think so, and you might not like it…
