Since entering the PG era, WWE hasn't been the same as it was earlier, but there are some feuds which remind us of the old days. Some rivalries need to go beyond the term "PG", otherwise, they feel incomplete. Besides, fans really enjoy watching hardcore wrestling in this era.

Wrestling is just incomplete without some destruction and carnage. It's an aggressive sport, which needs some chaos around it to give fans the feeling of aggression.

WWE usually doesn't go for brutal storylines in this era, but from time to time, fans get to see some classic storylines, which have a lot of brutality in them to make them look as real as possible. Some Superstars just go on to a path of destruction against their opponents.

In this article, let's take a look at five wrestlers who got out of control in recent memory and destroyed their opponents.


#5 Charlotte Flair

One match which played a big role in WWE's Women's Evolution was Ronda Rousey vs. Charlotte Flair at Survivor Series 2018. Although the match ended in a disqualification due to Charlotte Flair not being able to defeat Rousey and breaking the rules, Flair's actions after the match showed that the women in WWE can get vicious too.

Flair and Rousey had a classic match, but Flair snapped while it was taking place because she failed every method she used to attempt to defeat the former RAW Women's Champion. When everything in Flair's arsenal failed, she went out of her way to give Rousey the beating of a lifetime with a kendo-stick. The Queen hit 'The Baddest Woman On The Planet' with countless kendo-stick shots.

However, Flair did not finish there. She brought out a chair and fixed it around Rousey's head, followed by a brutal kick to it, to damage Rousey's neck.

Although Flair cost herself the match, she was the one standing tall in the end, after beating the daylights out of the former UFC star and leaving her bleeding and in need of assistance to get out of the ring.

#4 Roman Reigns

'The Big Dog' Roman Reigns usually does his talking in the ring, but when things go too far, he is the last man you would want to make angry. Going back to the feud between Roman Reigns and Sheamus in the fall of 2015, we saw a different version of 'The Big Dog'.

Roman Reigns faced Sheamus in a TLC match for the WWE Championship at the TLC pay-per-view in December of 2015. Roman Reigns was pretty optimistic about winning his title back, which he had lost to Sheamus at Survivor Series that year, just after a few seconds of winning it.

However, outside interference from Sheamus' League Of Nations allies led to Sheamus retaining the title.

Reigns reached his breaking point and there was no stopping him then. 'The Big Dog' went on a rampage against Sheamus and his allies, hitting them with multiple chair shots.

Reigns would not stop, which caused WWE COO Triple H to come out. However, it proved to be an awful night for The Game, because he was the one who was brutalized the most by Reigns. Triple H got hit by a Superman Punch, multiple chair shots, a Powerbomb on a table, an elbow drop through a table and a deadly Spear.

#3 Ronda Rousey

There's a reason why many call Ronda Rousey "The Baddest Woman On The Planet". Rousey has always been known for her strong character who brutalizes her opponents whenever she steps inside the ring. She had several monumental achievements in WWE after making her debut at the Royal Rumble in 2018.

Rousey's first feud for the RAW Women's Championship was against Nia Jax. The two faced off at the Money In The Bank pay-per-view in 2018, where Rousey almost won her first championship in WWE, but unfortunately, Alexa Bliss stole Rousey's moment.

The Goddess hit both women with her case before throwing Rousey into the ring post. Bliss then sent the former UFC Champion over the announce table and stepped back into the ring where she assaulted the champion with the case.

Rousey could not control herself the following night on RAW and went on to a path of destruction. Bliss's trash-talking just added fuel to the fire. She viciously attacked Bliss and beat her down with the Money In The Bank briefcase. When former RAW General Manager Kurt Angle tried to stop her, Rousey landed some punches on him as well. The referees who interrupted also suffered the same fate. The assault ended with Rousey hitting Bliss with a Powerbomb through the table.

#2 Braun Strowman

Braun Strowman has made a career out of destroying wrestlers. A year ago, Strowman was feuding with Kane and Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship, on the road to Royal Rumble. Strowman went as far as trying to crush Kane and Lesnar under a lighting truss.

The Monster Among Men was fired the following week by former RAW General Manager Kurt Angle, because of his actions against Kane and Brock Lesnar. Strowman could not handle the news, and went on a path of destruction, destroying everyone and everything in his way backstage.

He first started by dismantling a group of security guards who tried to escort him out of the arena. Following that, he headed towards Angle's office and changed the entire shape of the room. Strowman then headed to the catering area and destroyed everything. While that wasn't enough, he entered the production truck and started yelling over the employees.

After disengaging the production truck, Strowman stepped outside and pushed over the whole truck. Finally, he headed back to the arena and destroyed the entire commentary team of RAW, specifically Michael Cole. Strowman only stopped when Stephanie McMahon rehired him.

#1 Brock Lesnar

The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar is arguably the most destructive wrestler in WWE. Every year, we see several wrestlers getting dismantled by Lesnar, but there's one specific wrestler every year, who Lesnar makes an example out of. This year, it was Seth Rollins who was the victim of a ferocious beat-down by the Universal Champion.

Brock Lesnar and Seth Rollins have been engaged in a rivalry since the road to WrestleMania 35. Lesnar's hate for Rollins increased when he lost his Universal Title to the man at WrestleMania. While that wasn't enough, Lesnar was embarrassed at the hands of Seth Rollins at WWE Super ShowDown earlier this year, when Lesnar tried to cash in on The Architect, but instead, got hit with several chair shots from Rollins.

Lesnar won back the WWE Universal title at Extreme Rules last month. He appeared the following night on RAW and was nowhere to be seen after the show. Surprisingly, Lesnar appeared during the main event of RAW this week and attacked Seth.

He brutalized The Architect outside the ring, by hitting him with a German Suplex on the floor. Following that, Rollins was hit with an F-5 on the ring-post. The Beast was far from done and took Rollins to the ring, where he hit him with three F-5s on a chair, which severely injured Rollins' ribs, and apparently caused internal bleeding.

When everyone thought it was done and dusted, Lesnar headed towards the Ambulance and brought Rollins outside, while he was lying on a stretcher. Lesnar ended the vicious assault by hitting Rollins with an F-5 on the stretcher.
