10 Shocking Wrestling Moments That’d Rock 2021

2. Brock Lesnar Shows Up In AEW

You know who else is a savvy businessman?

That'd be the menacing mug staring you down from the pic above. Brock Lesnar hasn't exactly made any secrets about his main motivation; even Jim Ross admitted on his podcast that Brock was all about making money when he first broke into pro wrestling. He believed he had significant earning potential, and he was 100% right.

Lesnar probably has some restored loyalty to Vince McMahon and WWE, but he's forever ambitious and loves maintaining his special aura. If Tony Khan was willing to throw the necessary funds his way, then nobody could say for sure that Brock would knock him back just so Vince didn't throw a tantrum. Alpha males like Lesnar do their own thing.

Lesnar walking out on Dynamite, or crashing the scene to end a pay-per-view, would blow social media up within minutes. Literally the entire world would be talking about this 'OMG' moment, and it'd stir huge interest in AEW's product.
