10 Fascinating Facts About WWE In 2018
10. Brock Lesnar Punched Braun Strowman For Real
POW!
Braun Strowman would come to regret accidentally cracking Brock Lesnar with a knee during the pair's three-way match with Kane at the 2018 Royal Rumble. Braun battered Brock in the side of the head, so Lesnar (never one to shy away from such things) responded by punching Strowman full force back.
During interviews after the fact, Braun jokingly remarked that he was chuffed he hadn't been knocked out. See above for the exact moment Lesnar decided that a knuckle-shaped receipt was coming Strowman's way for that errant knee to the noggin. That was the kind of thing fans expected from UFC, not WWE.
Brock laid it right in. Meanwhile, Kane must've been like: 'I'm staying the hell out of this!'. Thankfully, things didn't break down further. Braun took the receipt and everyone moved on. Strowman later said it was just two big alpha males doing alpha male things.
Quite, but wrestlers aren't supposed to get so shooty during major PLE matches.
