Brock Lesnar ascended to the top of the ladder at SummerSlam 2002, but it's his dominance in headliners since returning in 2012 that's made the show all about 'The Beast'. Pulverising Triple H, John Cena and Randy Orton in singles main events, he also had bangers with the likes of CM Punk and Roman Reigns. 'The Biggest Party Of The Summer' remains one of his biggest nights.
