Since Brock Lesnar’s Shocking Return in 2012, Only 6 Stars Can Claim to Slaying The Beast Incarnate Fair and Square

Brock Lesnar has been one of very few ‘undefeated’ wrestlers during his entire tenure of wrestling. He has conquered several wrestlers on his journey to become one of the most well-recognized faces in WWE. However, his nearly ‘undefeated’ record has been broken a number of times. While some talents have conquered him using unfair tricks, others have pinned him in a clean manner.

Reading along, you will find the names of six heroes who have slain The Beast Incarnate ever since he returned to the promotion in 2012. These six names have proven themselves worthy opponents by pinning down Lesnar fair and square.

Brock Lesnar’s clean conquerors during the initial years of his return

The 46-year-old’s first WWE run ceased in 2004. After exploring the world of sports independently, Lesnar finally returned to the promotion in 2012. Since then, he hasn’t left WWE, though his appearances have been scarce. His scarce appearances, mixed with his undefeated nature have made his clean defeats even more rare and precious for WWE fans.

Starting with his return year, one of his first defeats in his second WWE stint was at the hands of his long-running arch-nemesis, John Cena. The Hollywood star crushed his old rival during their match at Extreme Rules ’12. That year, Lesnar also ended up feuding with Triple H. Then the following year, Hunter refused to spare him and pinned him down during WrestleMania 29.

In 2015, Lesnar was reigning as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. His reign of terror came to an end when Seth Rollins dethroned him in a triple-threat match at WrestleMania 31. In a banger of a match, fans probably wouldn’t forget the iconic rivalry between Lesnar and Goldberg, especially at Survivor Series in 2016, where the latter cleanly pinned the former UFC champion.

The list doesn’t end here. In fact, two top-tier wrestlers were able to defeat Brock Lesnar fair and square on multiple occasions since his 2012 return to the promotion.

In 2016, Roman Reigns pinned down the beastly wrestler on Fastlane for the first time in their evergreen feud. Then, two years later, he pinned him again at SummerSlam ’18. The Big Dog bested his opponent for the third time at Crown Jewel in 2021. And in the following year, Lesnar lost to him twice, first at WrestleMania 38, then at SummerSlam in the same year, in 2022.

2023 wasn’t too generous with Lesnar either, as he started a feud with Cody Rhodes that didn’t end up in the WWE legend’s favor. First at Backlash ’23 then at SummerSlam, Rhodes won both matches against Lesnar by pinfall, ultimately conquering Lesnar’s heart and closing their feud for good.
