Brock Lesnar didn't have the best of years in 2016. It started with failure in the Royal Rumble, an continued with his inability to earn number one contendership at Fastlane. He defeated Dean Ambrose at WrestleMania then Randy Orton at SummerSlam, but neither match impressed, and his biggest disappointment was just around the corner.

Goldberg defeated Lesnar in a humiliating 85 seconds at Survivor Series, and the New Year didn't bring a change in fortunes either. It took Goldberg just 30 seconds to eliminate Brock from the 2017 Royal Rumble, and with the two set to collide on last time at WrestleMania 33, the former WCW Champion holds all the advantages.

Lesnar isn't wasting any time on getting back into the ring, however. Saturday night saw him wrestle at a WWE live event in Salt Lake City, Utah. Brock fought (and defeated) the Big Show with Paul Heyman watching on from ringside, continuing his recent streak of live event victories.

A part-timer he may be, but Lesnar notched-up house show wins over Sheamus, Rusev, Orton, and a handful of others in 2016. Photos and videos from his match with Big Show can be found below:-
