A couple of weeks ago, Mya Lesnar made it to the headlines by proving she is The Beast Incarnate’s daughter. The daughter of Brock Lesnar made waves as she broke the record in the women’s division for shot-put at Colorado State University. Her 18.5-meter attempt at shot-put made fans compare her to her father.
