No other fighter in the history of the UFC rose to the top as quickly and had such a huge effect on business as Brock Lesnar. When the former-and now again-WWE wrestler and NCAA champ first fought in the UFC he chose "Shout At The Devil" by Motley Crue as the tune to carry him into battle. While a great song and fitting in nature, it lacked that certain punch that Lesnar warranted. It wasn't long before Brock switched his music to Metallica's classic anthem "Enter Sandman" (probably at the behest of his close friend Paul Heyman, who'd seen firsthand the explosive effect the song could have on a live crowd). As soon as the lights went down and the opening notes began, anticipation reached a fever pitch in the arena. Love him or hate him, whenever Brock fought it was an event the likes of which UFC is still trying to replicate. Snarling his way to the cage full of hatred for humanity, Lesnar was the picture of someone about to send his opponent off to Never-neverland.
