The ONE Word Vince McMahon Used To Describe Brock Lesnar
WWE's patriarch got a little excited...
Vince McMahon was excited about Brock Lesnar before the future 'Beast Incarnate' had even signed a WWE contract.
The boss bumped into Brock at a hotel on the road randomly and was immediately swept off his feet by the rookie's immense physical stature. That, of course, meant that McMahon spent the rest of the week daydreaming about how Lesnar would look with the WWE Title wrapped around his waist.
Jim Ross got an earful from Vince about how impressive Brock was.
During a creative meeting one day, Vince told JR what a bright future the muscular amateur wrestling standout had with the company. Then, he used one word to best-describe what he thought of Lesnar's bulging frame and raw masculinity.
"He's a viking, JR!"
Ross told this story on his 'Grilling JR' podcast, and said that McMahon was overcome with emotion about how much Brock could achieve under his watch. This wasn't exactly news to the iconic commentator; he'd been the one who helped scout Lesnar in the first place, and he was only too aware of what he could bring to the table.
Still, a f*cking VIKING was in the house. It's a wonder Brock didn't become The Berzerker 2.0.
