It wouldn’t be incorrect to state that Brock Lesnar is one who stands out among the rest of the wrestlers in WWE. There are several reasons behind it. One is obviously the immense strength that The Beast Incarnate has. However, the other feature of the superstar is the giant body that he has. And recently one WWE legend highlighted it even more. 

Being a hardcore athlete who is a former mixed martial artist as well, Lesnar’s physique is commendable. It is one of the features of the former Heavyweight Champion that has scared his rivals over the years. Now, it has also captured the attention of the Hall of Fame legend, Rob Van Dam. 

A WWE Hall of Fame legend described his honest reaction to seeing Brock Lesnar

Speaking on his 1 OF A KIND podcast, RVD spoke about meeting several WWE stars upon his return to the company last month. He was part of the WWE Draft episodes, where he went out to announce some of the picks. 

During his visit, he ended up meeting multiple wrestlers and superstars backstage. Some of those names include Paul Heyman, Triple H, and also the Raw star, Dexter Lumis, whom he called the guy, “with the psycho look in his eyes.” 

However, who stood out for the WWE legend was none other than The Beast Incarnate. And upon meeting him, RVD was left shell-shocked by the giant physique he has. 

He said, “Cool to see Paul Heyman, Didn’t see Vince. Saw Trip. Saw Triple H, he’s the boss now, he’s cool. One which sticks out is, I saw Brock.”

“He was leaving, we crossed paths. ‘Hey Brock’ you know, I said hi to him, and man, he’s bigger than I remember, he looked like a giant. Maybe he had cowboy boots on, thinking about it right now,” the 52-year-old legend added.

Further, he compared Lesnar’s look with that of the Bigfoot action figure from his teenage days.

From these statements of RVD, one can easily conclude what a magnificent impression Lesnar left of him on the legend. It appears like he is never going to forget this interaction with the superstar and will always remember him as the giant.
