Brock Lesnar in UFC

If there is one WWE Superstar who has achieved enormous success in every sphere of his wrestling and MMA career, it's the "Beast Incarnate" Brock Lesnar.

Lesnar started his career as an amateur wrestler. He achieved enormous success in that field and soon was signed by WWE. After a brief stint in OVW, he made the jump to the main roster very soon, using his impressive physique to assault and dominate each opponent that he came face to face with.

The fighter would dominate WWE for a while, before leaving to pursue a career in American Football. When that did not work out, he signed with Hero's. There he fought and defeated Min-Soo Kim. Soon after, he was signed by UFC. He lost his debut fight to Frank Mir but would bounce back with a win. He went on to defeat Randy Couture to become the UFC Heavyweight Champion, and the defeated Frank Mir and Shane Carwin to defend the title.

He eventually lost it to Cain Velasquez.

After this, he would fight Alistair Overeem to lose yet again. This would mark the end of this stint in UFC as he returned to WWE.

However, he did go back in 2016, and although he defeated Mark Hunt, the win was overturned after he had a positive drug test. Dana White announced that Lesnar had told him he was retiring from UFC in 2019.

He had a record of 5-3.
