10 Most Powerful Wrestlers In WWE Today

2. Brock Lesnar

Though not the most luxuriously-chiseled behemoth since the Ultimate Warrior as he was during his 2002 physical peak with the organisation, Brock Lesnar's more rugged physique doesn't lack any of the frightening power his younger self had.

Still able to throw around the main roster's biggest other 'Beasts' with relatively reckless abandon, Brock's reliance on German Suplexes wouldn't have worked as well if he didn't have the immense strength to actually deliver the destruction.

Even more important than his actual power, of course, is the believability his power commands. Since ending The Undertaker's WrestleMania undefeated streak and obliterating John Cena over a six month period, the Universal Champion has remained leagues apart from his 'colleagues' in aura alone. That only one current performer even exists in his orbit (and the fact that performer isn't even the company's top priority) speaks to how crucial a part that perception has played in Lesnar's continued presence at the top of the card.
