The current Mr. Money in the Bank Brock Lesnar takes a lot of criticism from the WWE Universe for his lack of motivation and skill, but looking back on his career, The Beast has been great for a long time.
His part-time contract and constant push means he'll always be criticised, and for that, we understand, but given how many great matches he's put on, the WWE Universe need to cut him some slack.
He's been with the WWE for over 10 years, and with a list of legendary opponents, he has had some fantastic bouts, and narrowing it down to just 5 was a lot tougher than anyone could have expected.
He may not get motivated all the time in WWE today, but Lesnar has been great for quite some time, so sit back and read along as we look back on his iconic career, and rank the top 5 matches he's ever had in WWE.
Honorable Mentions: Finn Balor (Royal Rumble 2019), Daniel Bryan (Survivor Series 2018), AJ Styles (Survivor Series 2017), The Rock (SummerSlam 2002)
#5 Kurt Angle: Smackdown Ironman Match
In terms of opponents, there were none better for Brock Lesnar throughout his career than Kurt Angle, and on this night, the two came together to create absolute magic. This match is considered the greatest TV match in WWE history (alongside HBK vs. John Cena), and for 60-minutes, these two fierce rivals went at it in a very physical Ironman match.
From the beginning, the two were beating the hell out of each other, with Lesnar using a chair to fall behind but gain a bigger physical advantage, and it would work perfectly for The Beast.
The action between the two friends was wrestled at a furious pace, and ultimately, Lesnar was able to hang on for the 5-4 victory in a match that any wrestling fan needs to see.
#4 CM Punk: SummerSlam 2013
We'd come to learn later that CM Punk wasn't too happy with the booking behind this match, but it's safe to say that Punk made all of us believers on this night. The Best vs. The Beast was such a fantastic build and the match itself was incredible, and although most people knew that Lesnar wasn't going to be pinned here, Punk gave it his best shot, and made it into a very competitive match.
The storytelling and the action was fantastic throughout, but at the end of the day, the combination of Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar was just too unbeatable around this time.
This would end up being one of the last big matches of CM Punk' illustrious WWE career, and apart from the John Cena match at Money in the Bank, this may be the best match of Punk's career, as it's one you need to go back and watch multiple times.
#3 Roman Reigns: WrestleMania 31
At this time, Roman Reigns was one of the most hated babyface's in WWE history, and the build-up was terrible, but when these two big men came together in Santa Clara, magic was made.
As you'd expect, it was nothing but raw physicality and brutality, and despite the fans not taking to Roman Reigns, it was hard not to get behind him as he stood up to the dominant Beast.
At the end of the match, Seth Rollins appeared to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase, and turned this one into a Triple Threat, where he would ultimately pin Reigns to become WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
These two would have a rematch three years later that was nowhere near as good, and it's safe to say that the quality of this one is something that they would never be able to top, as it was such a fantastic match.
#2 John Cena and Seth Rollins: Royal Rumble 2015
The Royal Rumble is one of WWE's most exciting shows each and every year, so it always comes as a shock when another match steals the show, but that's exactly what happened in 2015.
At this time, Lesnar was reigning as the WWE Heavyweight Champion, and looked completely unbeatable, but John Cena and Mr. Money in the Bank did their best to take that aura away.
Like he always does, Lesnar started the match with plenty of German Suplexes, and looked very dominant, but the heart of both his challengers didn't let them go away, and they made it quite competitive.
As the match went on, there were plenty of big spots, and plenty of drama, and while it was Lesnar that eventually came out on top, Seth Rollins was made a star on this night, and all 3 men looked fantastic.
#1 Eddie Guerrero: No Way Out 2004
For many people, this is the best pure babyface vs. heel match in WWE history, and given the quality of the babyface, this could be regarded as one of the best matches in WWE history.
The match started as many expected, with Brock Lesnar dominating, but slowly Eddie Guerrero grinned his way back into the match, and as he did it, the WWE Universe in the Cow Palace began to believe.
Then came an appearance from Goldberg as the referee was down, and it led to what many consider the greatest upset of all-time, as Latino Heat hit his Frog Splash and pinned The Beast 1-2-3.
The crowd went absolutely insane, and when Guerrero embraced his family at ringside, it was hard to hold the tears back, and although Brock came out on the wrong end of this one, it's easily his best match inside a WWE ring.
