Brock Lesnar has carved out a legacy in WWE that few can match. Known as “The Beast Incarnate,” he has left a path of destruction since his debut in 2002. Along the way, Lesnar has engaged in unforgettable rivalries that have defined his career and shaped WWE history. From legendary showdowns with The Undertaker to brutal encounters with Roman Reigns, Lesnar’s battles have captivated fans worldwide.
1. The Undertaker
One of Lesnar’s most iconic rivalries is with The Undertaker. Their feud reached its peak at WrestleMania 30 in 2014 when Lesnar did the unthinkable—he ended The Undertaker’s legendary 21-0 streak. The shocking victory cemented Lesnar’s status as WWE’s most dominant force. Their rivalry continued in 2015 with brutal matches at SummerSlam and Hell in a Cell, each adding to their storied history.
2. Roman Reigns
Lesnar and Roman Reigns have engaged in multiple high-profile matches, including several WrestleMania main events. Their first major showdown came at WrestleMania 31, where Seth Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank contract to steal the victory. Over the years, they clashed at SummerSlam 2018, Crown Jewel 2021, and WrestleMania 38, with Reigns ultimately dethroning Lesnar as WWE’s top champion.
3. John Cena
John Cena was another major rival in Lesnar’s career. Their battles date back to Backlash 2003, but their most infamous encounter happened at SummerSlam 2014. In that match, Lesnar delivered a record-breaking 16 German suplexes to utterly dominate Cena, winning the WWE Championship in one of the most one-sided beatdowns in history.
4. Kurt Angle
Lesnar and Kurt Angle shared a legendary rivalry built on athleticism and mutual respect. Their epic WrestleMania XIX match saw Lesnar pull off a risky Shooting Star Press (which almost ended in disaster). The two continued their feud throughout 2003, culminating in an intense Iron Man Match on SmackDown, where Lesnar reclaimed the WWE Championship.
5. Goldberg
Goldberg and Lesnar have had a rivalry spanning multiple eras. Their infamous match at WrestleMania XX disappointed fans, but their rematch at Survivor Series 2016 shocked the world when Goldberg squashed Lesnar in under two minutes. The feud continued into WrestleMania 33, where Lesnar finally got his revenge and won the Universal Championship.
6. Triple H
Triple H and Lesnar’s rivalry was brutal and personal. It kicked off in 2012, with Lesnar breaking Triple H’s arm twice. Their war culminated at WrestleMania 29, where Triple H defeated Lesnar in a grueling No Holds Barred match.
Lesnar’s rivalries have defined WWE’s modern era, showcasing his dominance, intensity, and unmatched presence in the ring. Whether it was destroying legends or clashing with future stars, his battles remain unforgettable.
