Brock's not a normal humanBrocking The Boat: All The Times Brock Lesnar Broke WWE’s Rules And Got Away With It
As you may have heard, Brock Lesnar is competing this Saturday at UFC 200while still under WWE contract. Not only that, but his fight has suddenly become the main event. Needless to say, nothing even remotely like this has happened before, but Brock Lesnar has made a career of making WWE impossibilities possible. Ever since Lesnar walked in the door of the company in the early 2000s, he’s been breaking WWE’s written and unwritten rules, usually without punishment of any kind.
So, as Brock prepares for his battle with Mark Hunt, here’s a history of all the times The Beast broke WWE’s rules and proved that might makes right …
The Developmental Steroid Bust
Despite his gorilla-like physique, Brock has always insisted that he’s never taken any sort of body-enhancing drugs, and he’s been tested plenty of times to back up his claims. Lesnar’s track record isn’t completely clean, though.
Back in 2001, when training with WWF developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling, Brock was nabbed for receiving a box packed with what police described as a large amount of steroids. Brock was facing up to a year in prison, but the police later dropped the charges when they determined the package just contained “some kind of growth hormone.” Um, isn’t that pretty much what steroids are? Meanwhile, Lesnar’s lawyer described the pills as a “vitamin type of thing.” Well, okay then.
Did Brock Suffer Any Consequences?
What happened in Louisville, stayed in Louisville back in 2001.
Brock Quits OVW And Demands WWE Send Him To The Main Roster
Brock’s illicit package wasn’t the only issue he had down in OVW. After learning his craft there for just over a year, Brock decided unilaterally that he had learned all he needed to, packed up his bags and moved back to Minnesota. When WWE called Brock to figure out what the hell was going on, he issued the first of many ultimatums — put him on TV or don’t bring him back at all.
Did Brock Suffer Any Consequences?
WWE called Lesnar up within days and immediately strapped the proverbial rocket to his pasty ass.
Brock Gets On Undertaker’s Bad Side
Most wrestlers getting a major push after only a year of training would make sure to be extra careful and respectful in the WWE locker room. Since Brock is Brock, he did the exact opposite. Lesnar immediately got on the bad side of legends like Steve Austin and Hulk Hogan, who refused to do jobs for him, but apparently he really rubbed The Undertaker the wrong way. It wasn’t just a business dispute with Undertaker – Brock admits they had legit personal differences. Pissing off the most respected guy in the locker room would be the death knell for most guys, but again, Brock isn’t most guys.
Did Brock Suffer Any Consequences?
Brock ran roughshod over the WWE roster and won his first world title within six months. Years later, Undertaker would personally choose him to end his legendary WrestleMania streak.
