Obviously he juiced hard in WWE like all, but dude was a BEAST ncaa wrestler and still a freight train


Genetically Brock was a freak even in high school pictures with great genetics


I remember the one interview he walked out on when they asked him about steroid use

You not that great of an athlete if WWE have to be mentioned in the list of your achievements.

Impressive when you think of all the billions of people in the world that have lived in the past few decades. How many could say that they've been a WWF champion? World Champion. There's Hulk Hogan, Bret Hart, Ultimate Warrior, Yokozuna, that Cena guy, Shawn Michaels, Andre the Giant, The Narcissist, Big Daddy Cool Diesel. Am I missing anyone? Triple H. Oh, Bob Backlund.

Are you for real?

You do know that WWE is a theater and those guys "fighting" there are actors, right?

It’s hard to say without seeing his package.

I think unless someone can fully prove they deserve it more, the top spot by default goes to Lebron.

You're an idiot. I'll slam you hard in the ring, and it hurts like hell. WWE Ring is stiff.

Just as athletic as other actors playing action scenes. But we not listing Marvel movies as Chris Evans athletic achievements, are we?

Depends what you mean. Lesnar is athletic and strong, but his physique looks weird. Long arms and legs, short torso. He's built like a crap. Goldberg looked more impressive. Was stronger too.

a lot of WWE guys are crossed over from other sports... And the physical punishment is very real. Wrestlers have it worse with CTE and injury than pro football players.

The ignorance in this one is strong.

You wouldn't last a day in a wrestling class with people that do it regularly.

WWE requires some athletic talent but it's not on par with NFL, NBA, etc. You here plenty of stories about a guy that couldn't make the NFL, suffered an injury that ended their pro prospects in baseball or some other sport and ended up in WWE. You will never hear about a guy suffering a WWE career ending injury that then joins the NFL. WWE is basically stuntmen that specialize in fight scenes. It's athletic but not on par with the major sports. Else Undertaker wouldn't be retiring at 60 or however old he is.

Brock Lesnar was an MMA champion so his talent was on par, the Rock played for Miami in the 90s when they were a powerhouse, kurt angle was an olympic gold medalist, etc. plenty of those guys had pro athletic ability.

I'm talking about WWE as a whole not individual cases. Also note that the Rock suffered a major injury that limited him as an athlete. He couldn't make the NFL and went to the WWE after struggling to make a career in the CFL. Lesnar wanted to play in thr NFL but could not make thr Vikings (to be fair maybe her could have if he had designated himself to football when he eased younger but too bad). Kurt Angle is WWE because there is practically no such thing as real professional wrestling.

Better athletes than Brock Lesnar who just happen to be wrestlers:

Steve Blackman
Ken Shamrock
Kurt Angle


Three guys that would absolutely **** you up.

When I worked with Dymatize we sponsored Brock. He's a deal athlete but he was a complete asshole. He hated to do PR. But there are definitely freakiest with more proportioned bodies. Brock couldn't dominate the NFL with all those traits. His body looked unesthetical.

the NFL is a speed game. You put lesnar in a cage with anybody from the NFL and they are getting their ass kicked all over.

Of course he would win a fight. He's a great wrestler and had a few other skills from MMA training. That doesn't prove anything.

Sure it does... it proves he's a great athlete. Wrestling/fighting is one of the oldest reknowned sports in the world and was used as a standard for athleticism for 1000s of years back to the ancient greeks. Being better at a niche sport like football thats only been around for a short while by comparison doesnt make one a better athlete.

Lesnar would beat any NFL guy in a fight because he has wrestling skills. His skills are to be respected but that's not athleticism.

Athleticism is strength speed and agility.

It's much more than that... physical coordination is a part of athleticism, the ability to perfect micro movements is an athletic trait.

It's much more than that... physical coordination is a part of athleticism, the ability to perfect micro movements is an athletic trait.Even if you stretch the definition that far (and you are stretching it (https://www.google.com/search?q=athleticism&oq=athleticism&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l7.7116j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)) Lesnar's wrestling is learned skill. If young Ray Allen never shoots a basketball he's not going to be a good shooter. If Aaron Donald never wrestles of course he can't match Lesnar in a fight. Lesnar trained in wrestling for his whole young life through college. You really think guys that never tried wrestling can be fairly compared to an NCAA champion based on fighting results? That doesn't make sense.

Every NFL player to ever make it has been in many fights growing up. except maybe the kickers. Irregardless, there's no justification to say that an NFL player is more athletic than an NCAA 1st division champion wrestler, or an olympic gold medal wrestler, or an MMA champion. It's an asinine position to take.

1: There is an immense difference between getting ito a few fistfights and the level of training Lesnar has gone through.

2: I never said Lesnar is less athletic than every NFL player. I said that NFL players are generally superior athletes to WWE wrestlers and that you are wrong to think Lesnar beating a football player in a fight would prove anything regarding the athletic ability of one of them vs. the other. If Lesnar played one-on-one with Semi Ojeleye he would lose 21-0. That certainly wouldn't mean that Ojeleye is a better athlete. Similarly Lesnar destroying someone with no training in a fight wouldn't prove anything.

Brock Lesnar is now officially a free agent.

Yes, he can just re-sign with WWE or already had a new contract under the table. But imagine if other big companies ala NJPW or AEW cut some great deals for him.
