Brock Lesnar is undoubtedly enjoying his current run as a babyface. In addition to the change in his on-screen gimmick, we have also seen him don a new style. The Beast Incarnate now rocks a Cowboy hat, and underneath it, he has a ponytail.
Lesnar recently revealed the real reason behind the change in his look, which is adorable. He shared the details during his recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show and said:
“I’m just... yeah, I’ve been wearing cowboy hats for a long time. And I just enjoy wearing them. Dude, that was all just a joke for me. My kids would cut my hair and were like, ‘bet you won’t wear a ponytail’. I’m like ‘I bet you I will.’”
Brock Lesnar is currently preparing for his Elimination Chamber match scheduled to take place this Saturday. He will join four other RAW Superstars inside the huge steel structure, hoping to dethrone Bobby Lashley as the WWE Champion.

Former WWE Superstar Ric Flair talked about potentially returning to the promotion for a match. He revealed that his first choice for the opponent is Universal Champion Roman Reigns.
He also compared The Tribal Chief to his iconic rival Ricky Steamboat and said he “would die” to square off in a match against the current version of Reigns.
"I would die to wrestle Roman Reigns the way he is right now. How good-looking is that kid? He’s Steamboat,” said Ric Flair.
Since parting ways with the company, Ric Flair has shared his opinion on the current product with top superstars in his Wooooo Nation Uncensored podcast. While he has been kind towards some like Roman Reigns, he has blatantly criticized others like Becky Lynch.
He recently talked about his equation with the RAW Women’s Champion and recalled how he treated her as his daughter before the fallout.
