Brock Lesnar is a genetic freak and has been a major attraction in the sports entertainment business. Right from his days in OVW, WWE groomed The Beast Incarnate as the next superstar in the company.

However, one wrestling legend claimed Lesnar purposefully hurt his then-girlfriend, and even had to warn him not to do so. The legend threatened to fire Lesnar for his actions in the OVW.

Some time ago, Jim Cornette shared how Brock Lesnar hurt his then-girlfriend and now-wife Stacy Goff during their OVW feud. This happened when Lesnar and Shelton Benjamin were feuding with Disciples of Sin. One of the big highlights of the feud was Cornette’s wife Stacy, who went by the name Synn, receiving a Press Slam from The Beast Incarnate.

Cornette said, “Stacy and she wouldn’t mind me saying this because she is open with everybody. (She) just had certain parts of her anatomy pierced. These certain parts would be where Brock’s right hand went, when he picked her for the press slam.”

Synn had talked to The Beast earlier that day about not touching the newly pierced region while delivering a press slam. However, Lesnar didn’t listen and did what Synn not tell him to do. She came backstage and started crying after that. Even Cornette claims Stacy has a high tolerance for pain.

Further, Synn and Lesnar started cussing each other backstage. Also, Synn claimed saying The Beast about the pain area. This did not sit well with Cornette and he went on the shoot at Lesnar.

Cornette said, “He’s saying I didn’t do it, I didn’t mean to do it, I was just kidding. In the process, he says f**k you to her in front of me. That’s where I said look motherf**ker, you need to know this now. Don’t say f**k you to her in front of me because I won’t fight you. I will shoot you.”

As per Jim Cornette, Lesnar only respected two people in OVW. Those two people were his coaches, Jim Cornette and Danny Davis. The Beast later felt a bit sad and told Davis about what Cornette said to him.

Brock Lesnar wrestled only for money

Jim Cornette was very vocal about the intentions of Brock Lesnar in pro wrestling since the start. The wrestling legend believes Lesnar never had an interest in the business and only did this because money was good.

He said, “He was doing it for the money. He quit on the spot on top making millions dollars a year because he didn’t like the f**king travel because he’s a farm boy whatever the f**k.”

Further, Cornette added about how Lesnar went from WWE to NFL but failed. He shed a light on The Beast going to the UFC, which he didn’t go to earlier because of financial reasons. Later, Lesnar returned to wrestling after his health issue limited him to perform in the octagon for a while.
