#3 Vince McMahon's reaction when he saw Brock Lesnar for the first time
Vince McMahon and Brock Lesnar's first meeting was an interesting one for sure. WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross introduced Lesnar to Vince McMahon when The Beast was yet to make his way to the main roster. The moment Vince laid eyes on Lesnar, he was beyond impressed. Vince McMahon ended up dubbing him a viking, after getting impressed with his incredible physique and form.
After Vince met him, he said, "My god, he's a viking." I said to Vince, "I was thinking more like a Hereford bull." Then Vince started quizzing me about cattle: "What's a Hereford bull?" Never mind. Vince was amazed at the athletic specimen that Brock Lesnar was and is.
Vince McMahon probably knew at that point that he had a major future star in his hands. He went out of his way to turn Brock Lesnar into the biggest Superstar in WWE going forward. Lesnar defeated The Rock to become the youngest WWE Champion, and it was only the first of many World title wins for The Beast. Vince McMahon brought back Lesnar in 2012, for another main event run that lasted for years on end.
