7 Most Dominant Brock Lesnar Victories

Winning is something that’s become quite the habit for Brock Lesnar over the years.

It began way back in 1998 in Bismarck, North Dakota, when Lesnar (then in his sophomore year), won the National Junior College Athletic Association Championship. Success stayed with him through his college days, and in 2000 he became the NCAA Division 1 Heavyweight Champion.

The titles continued to find their way onto his waist through his stints in the WWE, New Japan Pro Wrestling and the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

I may be glossing over a few things here or there (most notably a brief spell chasing an NFL dream), but the point remains that, by and large, victories have followed Lesnar just about everywhere that he’s been. The man is a serial winner and is no stranger to success.

What sets him apart from many of his peers though, is the way in which those victories have arrived. Often, he’s picked up wins in the most convincing fashion, and that not only counts for the weird and wonderful world of pro wrestling.

This article looks back at a few of those examples, those times when Lesnar came out on top in spectacular fashion, as we count down some of the most dominant victories of Lesnar’s career.

We begin this list in a logical place: with Lesnar’s first official match in a WWE ring, at Backlash 2002. After Lesnar had taken out Jeff’s brother Matt with a hard F5 onto the stage on a prior episode of Raw, Jeff was out for some retribution.

He didn’t get it.

Though Hardy did manage to mount some offense in the early going, Lesnar was in control for the most part and the way in which he rag-dolled his unfortunate opponent made him look like an absolute animal. In that sense, Jeff Hardy was probably the perfect opponent for Lesnar in his debut WWE feud.

Hardy managed to hit the Swanton at one point but Lesnar kicked out of it with ease which, if anything, only made him look even stronger (as if that were possible).

Spurred on by Paul Heyman’s ringside cheerleading and instruction, Lesnar refrained from pinning Hardy. Instead he hit a succession of three huge powerbombs before referee Teddy Long called the match off, awarding the decision to Lesnar.

By the end of it all, Hardy probably wished that this had indeed been made into a tag team match, playa.
