There’s a very real argument to be made that Brock Lesnar hit a peak in 2015. He’d had just dropped the WWE Championship due to Seth Rollins’s Money in the Bank cash-in and showed up on Raw the next night to destroy anything that moved. Months later, after The Undertaker cost him his title rematch, The Beast Incarnate went nuclear in pull apart brawls with The Dead Man.

Lesnar is so imposing and credible by default that when he flips the switch to authentically sell that he’s enraged, it offers fans something really special. Lesnar cashing in, only to get thwarted by a flash pin, the champion getting himself disqualified, or a third party interfering would offer perfect grounds for him to go ballistic again. In so doing, we can see the best of Lesnar and in a program that is removed from Universal Championship contention.
