10 Rare Brock Lesnar WWE Dark Matches You Need To See

7. Brock Lesnar Vs. Rico

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bl4A2i0ALUE Another destruction job by Lesnar. Although he may be bigger than the likes of Funaki and Crash Holly, Rico fared only a little better against the beast that is Brock Lesnar. Rico is a curious case. After a successful career as a law enforcement officer, an American Gladiator and a children's charity worker, Rico decided to try his hand at professional wrestling. Rico was scouted by the WWF and signed to a development contract after he had wrestled just twelve pro matches. The man from Las Vegas was in his late thirties when he was training with Lesnar down in OVW. But that didn't stop Rico from training exceptionally hard and getting a main roster call-up in March 2002. Rico always gave it his all out there, even if the cameras weren't rolling. Lesnar and Rico had pretty much the same match the following evening before the Smackdown tapings, showing how little freedom WWE developmental talents had to ad-lib back then (not that it has changed much since).
