Brock Lesnar has dominated the sports entertainment industry for more than two decades now. WWE might have cut their ties with the star, but fans have not forgotten The One. Fans have been waiting for Lesnar to make a public appearance since his 2023 SummerSlam bout with Cody Rhodes. The match, which is considered one of the most entertaining of all, might be his last WWE match. While fans were waiting to see him once again, he did make a public appearance and it looks like The Beast Incarnate is getting old.

How are the forties looking for Brock Lesnar?

The former WWE Champion made an appearance at Colorado State University where his daughter, Mya Lesnar studies. His daughter, who also happens to be a shot-put athlete had participated in the Mines Alumni Classic.

What was The Beast Incarnate’s dream job?

Whenever someone looks at Lesnar, the first thing that comes to mind is that he is meant to be in combat sports. However, that was not his first choice. Lesnar had joined the Army National Guard in hopes of working with explosives. In his autobiography, he mentioned how a 17-year-old Lesnar navigated through the barracks as he suffered from red-green color blindness.

He mentioned that he was posted at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri where he worked in the artillery supply unit. Lesnar worked in the unit for 9 weeks but was unable to safely pursue the career as the boxes were marked in different color codes. Due to this, he was assigned a desk job but he was unable to fill the position as the star failed the typing test which is not related to his color blindness. But just imagine, if Lesnar had passed that test, fans might have never gotten to know one of the biggest stars of the pro wrestling industry. Share in the comments what you think about this surprising Brock Lesnar fact.
