Rebooking The 2002 WWE Brand Extension Draft
9. Raw Pick 6: Brock Lesnar
Actual Pick: Big Show
In real life, Ric Flair took an opportunity on an unproven rookie in Brock Lesnar with his eighth pick. In this re-booking of the draft, Flair will reach even higher by taking Lesnar two rounds earlier. Brock officially debuted the night after WrestleMania X8, and had only been in the company two weeks.
Still, with his physique and his intensity, Brock impressed enough to get drafted with Flair's sixth pick.
Despite only being on the main roster for two years during his first stint with the WWE, Lesnar made an immediate impact, winning the Undisputed WWE Championship at SummerSlam and main eventing WrestleMania at the end of his rookie year.
After leaving and conquering the UFC, Lesnar returned in 2012 and is the single biggest attraction in the WWE today. Flair caught a diamond in the rough.
