Remember those old video games from the early 2000s? Those old enough to have experienced the gameplay should also remember Brock Lesnar from the SmackDown games in PS2. He was one of those menacing characters from the set and would pummel his opponents like they were destined for cruel punishment.

On the latest episode of Monday Night RAW, a 32-year-old female star displayed one of those moves from the games, bringing back memories of The Beast Incarnate.

Who is the powerhouse RAW star and who faced her wrath?

It is none other than former Women’s Tag Team Champion Raquel Rodriguez. The 32-year-old went toe-to-toe with WWE Hall of Famer Trish Stratus for the final qualifier match at the Women’s Money In The Bank. Rodriquez took control early on and dominated inside the ring. She caught Stratus in a bear hug and literally shook her.

If you want to want to see the visual representation of rag-dolling, Raquel’s attack was the best example. It also resembled the move that Lesnar’s character performed in the aforementioned games. Sharing the moment on Instagram, WWE proclaimed that fans shouldn’t underestimate the power of Rodriguez. They also put the caption: Like a rag doll!

Unfortunately for the former Women’s Tag Team Champion, an ill-timed move from Becky Lynch cost the former the match. The Man, who lost her match against Stratus at The Night of Champions in May, after an intervention from Zoey Stark, deemed the RAW episode right to exact revenge. Accordingly, she attacked the 29-year-old main roster rookie.

Ultimately, it ended up with the referee disqualifying the match and Stratus’ win as a result. Meanwhile, earlier this year, Lesnar rag-dolled one of his opponents after a massive twist.

The Brock Lesnar heel turn that put a 37-year-old star in extreme pain

Brock Lesnar squashed Omos in less than five minutes at WrestleMania 39 on April 2. Just a day later, the 45-year-old appeared on RAW after ‘Mania and offered to be Cody Rhodes tag team partner in the latter’s bout against the Roman Reigns-Solo Sikoa duo.

But just before the bell rang, Lesnar suddenly attacked Rhodes. This also led to his heel turn as spectators watched in shock. What followed was mayhem that left The American Nightmare severely battered. This also gave rise to the Cody Rhodes-Brock Lesnar feud, keeping away the 37-year-old’s rivalry against Reigns for the moment.

Lesnar and Rhodes have already faced one another in two PLEs. The score is currently tied at one each. They are likely to compete in a mega clash at WWE SummerSlam, which will decide the winner of the rivalry.
