There are two types of wrestlers in WWE- Brock Lesnar and all the others. Why is it so? Because he is Brock Lesnar! It is as simple as that. Don't think I am highly exaggerating things here. He is truly a one of a kind, once in a lifetime wrestler, and that indeed is the fact that we have been witnessed over the years.
To someone watching WWE for a long time, this wrestler is no common wrestler. Is that a paradox? Not really. Brock Lesnar is portrayed as an entity that is larger than life. He is a force that can conquer the dead, the alive, the big, the small, the invincible and anything under the sun.
We have seen many great wrestlers like The Rock, Triple H, Stone Cold, Hogan, The Undertaker and John Cena, but none of them was portrayed this way. The treatment that WWE is rendering towards Brock Lesnar is something that the company has never and obviously will never render to any other wrestler.
As part of this slideshow, let us have a look at reasons why no other wrestler in WWE will be acclaimed like Brock Lesnar-
#5 No character adjustments
The best thing about Brock is his character gimmick. He will be loved either plays a heel or a face. There is no need to make any character adjustments with time. No matter which storyline he is a part of, the WWE universe longs to see him fight. He can handle a faction like the Wyatts all by himself, main-event WrestleMania and even be suspended indefinitely.
Whatever the scenario is, Brock always had the support of the WWE universe. He may not be a great worker on the microphone but his manager, Paul Heyman compensates all that.
Now we are comparing him with all other wrestlers, tell me which other wrestlers on the current roster have all the aforementioned attributes. At one point or the other, we hate a particular superstar's gimmick and he becomes a little irrelevant. But you are dealing with Brock Lesnar and boredom is out of question here!
#3 Never went after the Championships
'Number of Championships won' is one of the key parameters to judge the greatness and accomplishments of a wrestler. Any wrestler in WWE except Brock! He never went after the Championships throughout his career. His presence would be enough to blow the roof off the arena.
He was a 4 time World Champion and that is it when it comes to his Championship quota in the company. He was won more than the titles and indeed he is an entity bigger than life.
You have 16-time World Champions, 15-time World Champions and guys who have won all the Championships on one side and Brock Lesnar on the other. The interesting thing is Brock always tips the balance.
#3 The Forever Big Thing
In his initial days in the company, Brock was called the 'Next Big Thing' and this phrase exemplifies his career perfectly. Tell me one minor title other than the WWE World Heavyweight Championship that was won by Brock Lesnar. Even John Cena won the US title and Tag team title on multiple occasions.
That is the 'Beast' for you. His journey was different- No minor titles, no Money in the Bank contracts nothing! Even in the UFC, Brock went for the Heavyweight title and won it at his first opportunity.
People don't judge Brock by the number of titles he wins. They just look into his eyes when he makes his thunderous entrance and that is it.
#2 UFC reign
As a company, would you like to allow your top employee to work with your rival firm? No company does it. But WWE allowed it in the case of Brock Lesnar. They permitted Brock to work with their competitor UFC in the UFC 200 episode and he competed against Mark Hunt in a winning effort.
This is truly remarkable as this shows the face value Brock has among the wrestling circles and how WWE would want to leverage it. Brock emerged victorious in this once in a blue moon cross-company bout and improved his UFC winning record.
#1 The streak breaker
Brock Lesnar is very famous in breaking streaks. Whenever we talk about streaks and Brock Lesnar, you go back to the WrestleMania 30 match but there are a couple of other matches you should recollect at this juncture.
Brock Lesnar defeated The Rock in his first ever match against him and broke all the existing records and became the youngest WWE Champion. A decade later, he defeated John Cena at Summerslam for the same title by delivering 16 German suplexes. Remember, Cena is a 15-time World Champion and he lost to Lesnar rather easily.
The alpha, the biggest accomplishment in the career of Brock Lesnar, is the WrestleMania 30 match in which he ended the undefeated streak of The Undertaker and this is the night on which he became the 1 in 21-1.
