Brock Lesnar took on Braun Strowman and Kane in a triple threat match for the Universal Championship at The Royal Rumble back in 2018. This was Strowman's first big moment in a WWE ring and it appears that he got ahead of himself when he was in the ring with Brock Lesnar.

The Beast Incarnate was knee'd in the face as Strowman attempted to rush through his spot and was forced to act to calm him down. Lesnar delivered a punch to the face of Strowman, which was a clear, stiff punch to slow him down and take him off his feet.

This was followed by the former WWE Champion telling The Monster Among Men to calm down so that they could continue the match. If Strowman had continued at that speed, then someone would have been injured. Lesnar wanted to hit Strowman hard enough to make him see that he needed to slow down and it was something that the two men laughed about backstage following the match.

Both Strowman and the former WWE Champion have worked together since without any issues.
