10 Rare Brock Lesnar WWE Dark Matches You Need To See

8. Brock Lesnar Vs Crash Holly

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fVwkwPpXXEA This is more like it. A positively enormous Brock destroying a much smaller wrestler, this time out the underrated Crash Holly. Holly floundered for much of 2001, lost in the shuffle during the ECWCW Invasion he was used to doing dark match duty and did everything he could to make Lesnar look like a killer. He takes an evil corner clothesline from Lesnar early on and spends most of the short match bouncing around for The Next Big Thing. Watching Lesnar here, you can see why the WWF had such big plans for him. He moves around with incredible speed for a man of his size and has so much snap in his moves. Plus he was already making a connection with and getting a reaction from the crowd. It was people like Crash, who selflessly allowed themselves to be manhandled by the good but green Lesnar, that really got him over in the eyes of the fans and management. They deserve a lot of credit for that.
