10 Best Second Runs In WWE History

10. Brock Lesnar (2012 - Present)

Brock Lesnar's first WWE run was one of the most unique and controversial in all of wrestling history.

Debuting the night after WrestleMania X-8, Lesnar was pushed to the top of the card at light speed, securing a Royal Rumble win, a WrestleMania main event, and the WWE Title all within his first year.

Then, just one year later, he was gone. Lesnar had grown tired of the WWE lifestyle and he left after WrestleMania XX, leaving a huge Beast-shaped hole in the company.

After a career that took him to NJPW, the NFL, and the UFC, the Beast Incarnate eventually returned to WWE a full decade after his debut. What followed was yet another controversial run, which saw him hold the company's top prize hostage multiple times and become one of the most divisive figures the industry has ever known.

Still, there's no denying the success that Brock has had since his return. He's won far more titles, had far more big matches, and made a boatload more money than he did in his first run and, for that reason, he deserves a spot on this list. No matter how much you may hate Suplex City.
