10 Times Brock Lesnar's Ego Ran Wild In WWE

5. A Very Non-PG Rant

WWE's PG rating has been the source of endless discussion since its adoption in 2008. While some view it as the root of all of the company's modern creative woes, others understand its money-making importance. The debate rages on, but while it's extremely unlikely that WWE will ever abandon their family-friendly approach, Brock Lesnar isn't exactly cut from that cloth.

'The Beast Incarnate' returned to the promotion in 2012, beating the unholy hell out of company golden boy John Cena on this first night back. Afterwards, he unleashed a verbal torrent far removed from WWE's PG stylings, and more at home in one of Bubba Ray Dudley's notoriously crude ECW promos.

Among other choice quotes, Lesnar roared:-

"This guy is as scared as piss. He's shitting his pants, is what he's doing."

Granted, only those of the most nervous disposition would ever be offended by such modest swearing, but rules are rules - unless your name is Brock Lesnar. His strength within the company gives him the power to commit such misdemeanours without the fear of punishment, and it's hard to imagine he was even given a slap on the wrists after bad-mouthing Cena.
