5 WWE Superstars who have defeated Brock Lesnar clean: Where are they now?

#4 Seth Rollins

The Beastslayer had defeated Brock Lesnar way back in 2015, by cashing in his Money In The Bank briefcase during the WWE World title match between Lesnar and Roman Reigns. Rollins pinned The Big Dog to win the top prize, and Lesnar lost the belt without even getting pinned. By the time 2019 arrived, Rollins had become a mega babyface and won the 2019 Royal Rumble match. He faced Lesnar at WrestleMania 35 and won the Universal title with the help of a low blow and three Curb Stomps.

Months later, Lesnar cashed in his MITB contract on Rollins to win back the belt. At SummerSlam 2019, Rollins faced Lesnar again. In the end, Rollins countered an F5 from Lesnar and hit the Curb Stomp seconds later to win the Universal title. The Beastslayer had finally beaten Lesnar without using any outside object, or by questionable means. Rollins carried his momentum forward and went on to defeat Braun Strowman a few weeks later. He is currently the top heel on RAW and dubs himself The Monday Night Messiah.

Abhilash Mendhe is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda with nearly five years of experience. He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
