Brock Lesnar and WWE Games: Unknown Fact That Hardly Anyone Noticed in Decades

‘The Beast Incarnate’ Brock Lesnar in real life is a massive athlete who loves to beat the living life out of his opponents. Given his reputation in UFC, NFL, and WWE, Lesnar has featured in all of these digital games.

Lesnar has been a playable character in WWE, UFC, and NFL games across different platforms. However, the first time Lesnar was featured as a playable character was in WWE SmackDown! Shut Your Mouth (2002).

The game was a massive hit amongst the WWE fans and Lesnar was later featured in probably one of the best wrestling games ever called WWE SmackDown! Here Comes The Pain in 2003.

However, after the success of ‘Here Comes The Pain’, Lesnar didn’t appear in any of the WWE-related games, up until WWE ’12. What is the big deal here? It means that Brock Lesnar was not a playable character in the famous SmackDown Vs. Raw series.

The ‘SmackDown Vs Raw’ franchise released a total of six games from 2006 to 2011. Eventually, ‘The Beast’ made his comeback in WWE games in 2011.

WWE didn’t feature Lesnar in the SmackDown vs Raw series because Lesnar quit WWE in 2004 and was not on the roster at that time. Interestingly, while Lesnar was away from WWE games, he was a playable character in UFC and NFL games.

Brock Lesnar attracted some heat from fans with his Royal Rumble win

At the Royal Rumble premium live event, ‘The Beast’ lost his match against Bobby Lashley, thanks to Roman Reigns and Paul Heyman. However, Lesnar surprised everyone when he entered the Rumble match as the last entrant.

On the same night, Lesnar won the Royal Rumble for the second time in his career and booked the main event spot at WrestleMania 38. However, not all fans loved the fact that Lesnar got the second chance just hours after losing his title.

Multiple fans think that Lesnar’s Rumble win felt pushed, and it already set the stage for a Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar match after Reigns screwed him for the title.

However, if we think deeply, Lesnar vs Reigns is a WrestleMania main event match. But if any other wrestler would’ve won the men’s Royal Rumble, then he would main event instead of Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar.

It looks like there are chances that WWE might unify the Universal and WWE Championship, keeping one major title in the company.

What do you think about the rivalry between Reigns and Lesnar? Do you think WWE will unify their titles? Let us know in the comments below.
