10 Interesting WWE Facts About Brock Lesnar In Madison Square Garden

3. Dominance Over The Deadman

Given the current storyline between Brock Lesnar and the Undertaker, you might think that the two heavy-hitters are evenly matched through the years. But truth be told, Taker€™s win at SummerSlam was the first time in 17 matches he defeated Brock by pinfall or submission. Let that sink in: Even at house shows, Undertaker never beat Lesnar in a one-on-one match. It€™s kind of funny that they didn€™t play that angle up before WrestleMania XXX or even before SummerSlam.That dominance included a world title defense at Madison Square Garden in September 2003, when champ Lesnar beat Taker in a steel cage match. Lesnar won with a little help from Mr. McMahon, who prevented Undertaker from leaving the cage, allowing Brock to escape. Not exactly the epic ending from Mania last year, but at least it sounds easier to follow than the finish to their SummerSlam match last month.
