10 Strongest WWE Wrestlers EVER

3. Brock Lesnar

What was that about "downright scary" strength? Brock Lesnar has always packed that in abundance. Put it this way: He benched 475lbs at a tryout for the Minnesota Vikings 20 years ago, and he wasn't even healthy when doing so. Brock was rehabbing some injuries when he posted that number.

His reported personal best on the bench is 655lbs. See? Scary.

Country boy power came from a life growing up on the farm, and Lesnar has honed that to become one of wrestling and MMA's most lethal combinations of strength and speed. One need only look at Brock's ring work to see how strong he is. The way he rag-dolled some of wrestling's biggest men was staggering.

Lesnar has tweaked his style since returning in 2012, but he's still capable of showing off his power. Select sequences vs. Braun Strowman showed how strong he is even into his 40s, and that's just for starters. He was borderline superhuman during that initial 2002-2004 run in WWE though.
