10 Wrestlers Who ONLY Played By Their Own Rules

4. Brock Lesnar

When Brock Lesnar returned to WWE in 2012, it quickly became clear that we were dealing with a very different 'Beast Incarnate' this time round.

Lesnar wasn't interested in being a full-time team player after his stint in the UFC. He wanted to earn a sh*t ton of money for kicking people's asses and he wanted to be on the road as little as possible.

Sensing that there was dollar to be made in having Lesnar act as a special attraction of sorts, Vince McMahon happily obliged to these demands and Lesnar has gone on to earn ridiculous paycheques for a handful of appearances-per-year ever since.

Lesnar also knows exactly what he is worth and has frequently threatened to leave the company in order to force McMahon into offering him an improved deal.

At this stage in his career, Lesnar does whatever he wants, whenever he wants.

That doesn't mean that he's against putting people over, though. If Lesnar believes it's the right thing to do, he's more than happy to let the likes of Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre have their moment in the sun.

However, if he's not in the mood to play by someone else's rules, a Lesnar vs. Dean Ambrose at 'Mania 32 scenario can very quickly find itself on WWE television.
