10 Wrestlers That Bled The Hard Way

4. Brock Lesnar (Monday Night Raw, February 2013)

A gross giver rather than unexpected receiver elsewhere on this list, Brock Lesnar's blood flowed in rather gruesome fashion following a Monday Night Raw brawl with Triple H ahead of their chronic WrestleMania 29 clash.

In a visual more striking than any of the tepid ones they created on the 'Show Of Shows' stage, Brock and Hunter's battle resulted in 'The Beast' hitting the post hard enough smash open the back of his skull.

Accidental it may have been, but the feud couldn't have needed it more. Perhaps never colder than when he was trapped in the endless series against the 'King Of Kings', Brock's face following this fight at least created a sliver of tension in a match that didn't feel worthy of SummerSlam the year prior, let alone WrestleMania eight months later.

Looking legitimately dazed as WWE tried in vain to keep the cameras from showing the extent of the wound, Brock was sent scarpering when 'The Game' got hold of a chair, but his exit at least gave the company chance to shoot footage without worrying eagled-eyed sponsors.
