1. Kevin Owens

There's no word on exactly when this went down, but Road Dogg claimed on the most recent episode of his podcast that Brock didn't fancy wrestling Kevin Owens. Maybe this occurred when KO was Universal Champ in 2016-2017, or perhaps it's been mentioned in WWE plans since.

Whichever way one slices it, Lesnar said hell no.

It's doubtful that Owens has lost any sleep over this, especially in 2022. Earlier this year, he headlined the first night of WrestleMania 38 against 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin. That, being honest, was bigger than any bout vs. Brock could've been between 2016-2022.

The thought that Brock doesn't view KO on his level is interesting though. It'd be fun to find out why Lesnar refused to get booked with Kev for a major match. They could've done some great work together had the circumstances been right.
