The Undertaker has achieved legendary status in the world of pro wrestling. There are many things about the Undertaker that amaze us and his WrestleMania streak is certainly one of them. For years, the Undertaker fought legends of the sports at Wrestlemania and was able to overcome them all. However, the outcome did not go in favor of Undertaker when he went toe to toe with Brock Lesnar. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wwe-news-you-wont-believe-how-much-brock-lesnar-is-getting-paid-in-wwe/amp/] The WWE Universe was shocked when Brock Lesnar broke the most iconic streak in the sports entertainment and overcome the Phenom. Brock Lesnar had already made a name in WWE thanks to his glorious run over the years and a win over Undertaker at Wrestlemania just made his resume more impressive. BROCK LESNAR WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BREAK UNDERTAKER’S STREAK Brock Lesnar [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/15-12.jpg] However, Brock Lesnar was the first choice of WWE to break the iconic streak. It was the rated R superstar, Edge. The Undertaker fought Edge at Wrestlemania 24. However, it was Edge who did not like the idea of ending Undertaker’s streak. Michelle McCool, wife of Mark Calaway, in a recent interview with New york post stated that: “I remember a few years prior at WrestleMania [24] versus Edge, they talked about Edge breaking the streak and it was Edge that was actually like ‘That makes zero sense. I don’t want to do that. Why would I do that? The fans already love him. What’s it going to do for Edge?’” She further shares her though on the Undertaker losing at Wrestlemania in the hands of Brock Lesnar [https://www.wwe.com/superstars/brock-lesnar]: “I don’t think it needed to happen,” she said. She added, “Mark [Calaway] was fine with it. People don’t understand he’s gonna do business. He understands that business is business.” It was not the last time the Undertaker lost at Wrestlemania as he again tasted defeat when he fought the Big Dog, Roman Reigns.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Brock Lesnar: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Wife and More</strong></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Who is Brock Lesnar? </b></h2>
If there is one Superstar that does not need any introduction, it's Brock Lesnar. The Beast Incarnate was one of the most dominant wrestlers in WWE history, as his sheer physical and athletic superiority gave him an undeniable edge over his opponents. Lesnar has been in the business long enough to add a huge blend of experience to his already superhuman abilities. He has had a well-decorated career so far and is one of the strongest athletes to ever grace the WWE ring.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnar’s Early Life </b></h2>
Brock Lesnar was born on July 12, 1977, in Webster, South Dakota to Ricard and Stephanie Lesnar. His parents did not have any connection with the wrestling world and ran a dairy farm. He has three siblings, two brothers and one sister named <span style="font-weight: 400">Troy Lesnar, Chad Lesnar, and Brandi Nichol Lesnar. Speaking of his education, Brock studied at Webster High School and was a big football fan throughout his school days. </span>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnar’s Wife and Children</b></h2>
Brock Lesnar met his life partner, Rena Greek, renowned by her ring name Sable while working with WWE. The couple finally tied the knot in May 2006 following an extensive dating period. Just like her husband, Sable has also made a name for herself in the wrestling world. She majorly dominated in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

As far as children are concerned, Lesnar became a father for the first time in 2002 as he welcomed a daughter named Mya Lynn and a son named Luke Lesnar with his then-fiancée Nicole McClain. Lesnar also has two kids with his wife Sable in the form of two sons, Turk and Duke Lesnar. Brock also essays the role of a stepfather for Mariah, who is Sable's biological daughter from her previous relationship.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnar Net Worth 2024 (Update)</b></h2>
As per wealthygorilla.com, Brock Lesnar has a net worth of $25 million. The wrestler majorly earns from WWE while he also has a partnership with brands like Dymatize Nutrition and Death Clutch.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnar’s Career Timeline</b></h2>
Brock Lesnar joined the World Wrestling Federation in 2000 and formed a team with Shelton Benjamin named The Minnesota Stretching Crew to win the OVW Southern Tag Team Championship a total of three times. His initial foray into WWE came in March 2022 during RAW. In his first game, he defeated The Hardy Boyz, and in June of the same year, won the King of the Ring tournament. He also became eligible to participate in the Undisputed Championship at SummerSlam where he outshined <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-rock/">The Rock</a> to become the youngest world champion in WWE's history.

[caption id="attachment_1963171" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1963171 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-1393475587.jpg" alt="Brock Lesnar" width="1920" height="1264" /> GLENDALE, ARIZONA - APRIL 22: Brock Lesnar, former WWE champion and UFC champion, flexes for the crowd during a game between the Arizona Coyotes and Washington Capitals at Gila River Arena on April 22, 2022 in Glendale, Arizona.

Further, during his time with the company, Lesnar competed with a lot of wrestlers including <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-undertaker/">The Undertaker</a>, Hulk Hogan, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/john-cena">John Cena</a>, Kurt Angle, and many others. In a surprising turn of events in 2004, the superstar decided to put a halt on his wrestling career to pursue his passion for football. Following his childhood dream of playing the sport, Lesnar didn't want to turn 40 with any regrets of what could have been. He joined the training leagues and soon caught wind of the scouts.

He was then called up for trials. However, a short while before the trials, Lesnar met with a big motorcycle accident, which injured him badly. According to Paul Heyman, Lesnar still went for the trials and completed the dash in record time. Sadly, the groin injury that he had sustained as a result of the accident proved to be the poison to his NFL career as it kept acting up. Lesnar was released from the Minnesota Vikings just half a season after he had joined.

Following his very short stint in the NFL, Brock decided to join the Japan-based wrestling promotion named New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). He was quick to make an impact there also as he defeated Kazuyuki Fujita and Masahiro Chono to win the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. In 2007, the star wrestler lost to Kurt Angle and thus decided to take a break from wrestling till 2012.

It was a dramatic comeback for Lesnar in WWE in 2012 as he lost to John Cena before defeating <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/triple-h/">Triple H</a>. The rivalry between Triple H and Lesnar continued for months as the two took turns to defeat one another. In 2014, the star returned to Raw to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship by defeating The Undertaker and Cena.

He then went on to carry the Universal Champion title for a record 504 days following a victory against Goldberg at WrestleMania 33. It was <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roman-reigns/">Roman Reigns'</a> who put a dent to the Brock's winning streak by defeating him at the SummerSlam. Following that he won the WWE Championship and after some months took a break from the company.

Lesnar made his comeback to WWE at SummerSlam PPV after being out of action following his loss at WrestleMania to Drew McIntyre. The most surprising part about his comeback was that he rocked a ponytail and a beard, something that the WWE Universe never expected. The Beast then feuded with the reigning WWE Universal Champion, Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship at the Crown Jewel PPV in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and lost.

[caption id="attachment_1908643" align="aligncenter" width="1920"]<img class="wp-image-1908643 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Brock-Lesnar-Roman-reigns-2.jpg" alt="Brock Lesnar: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, wife and more" width="1920" height="1280" /> Image Courtesy: Imago[/caption]

The pair was again set to face each other at the Day 1 event, but Reigns had to pull out of the match. Lesnar was then added to the Raw WWE Championship match in which he defeated Lashley, Rollins, Kevin Owens, and defending champion Big E. 'The Beast Incarnated' then faced Lashley at the Royal Rumble event and lost his title after interference from Reigns. Later that night, he entered the Rumble match at the 30th spot and won the whole thing. Following that, he continued making appearances at WrestleMania and Smackdown taking on different opponents.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><b>Brock Lesnar’s Contracts</b></h2>

<h2 style="text-align: center"><b> Brock Lesnar’s Records</b></h2>
Brock Lesnar once made it to the history books for holding the Universal Champion title for a record 504 days. The feat was later achieved by a handful of other superstars as well, and thus he currently occupies the sixth place on the esteemed list.

Brock Lesnar: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Wife and More

<h2><img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200625131518/wwe-edge-wrestlemania-36.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="577" data-iml="79004" /></h2>
<h2>Edge 2022 - Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
If there ever was a man who put extreme on the map, it would be ?The Rated-R Superstar ? Edge. This name rings long and hard in the minds of WWE fans that respect and love the legend dearly.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

Edge is a star that always gives it his best in the ring. There is nothing that he cannot do and manages to stun everyone with his daredevil-like attitude in the ring.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://newyork.cbslocal.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/14578484/2020/01/Edge-3.jpg?w=1024" alt="" width="1024" height="615" data-iml="3893.0000000000005" />

Over the years, fans have grown accustomed to seeing him do the unthinkable in the ring. Edge is one of the most successful Superstars in WWE history and one of the best current wrestlers in the ring. His work in the ring is unparalleled and he is one of the few who carry on the torch of old-school wrestling.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>
<h2>History<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span></h2>
<h3>Early career</h3>
Edge began his career wrestling in several independent promotions across Canada. As a college student, he trained in the school boxing ring which had a hard mat. He learned how to limit his damage during falls from here which helped him later on in his career.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fwQrJ1xNrGs/maxresdefault.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" data-iml="23041" />

His skills were noticed by Bret Hart?s manager Carl De Marco, who recruited him under the WWE banner once he was president of WWF Canada. Edge worked in development territories and lived with a colleague until his career took off.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>
<h3>WWE</h3>
After impressing superiors, Edge made his debut on Raw on the June 22, 1998 episode. He soon climbed top the pecking order and formed a vampiric faction with Gangrel and Christian called the Brood.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/gallery_img_l/public/photo/image/2012/06/Edge_Classic_005.jpg" alt="" width="686" height="384" data-iml="22683" />

The Brood would eventually work with The Undertaker during the Ministry of Darkness Era. Edge worked with Christian a lot since they were best friends. Their pairing goes back decades and they work very well together.

Edge broke out as a solo Superstar once he had received enough recognition. His work as a tag team had cemented his character in the eyes of fans and his time had come.

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.ringsidenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/edge-christian.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="579" data-iml="13472" />

After a couple of tries as a solo character, the crowd seemed to back him and he was given the green light. Over the next few years, edge spent his time in legendary feuds with The Undertaker, John Cena, and Randy Orton before heading towards multiple Championship reigns.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/wwe_16_9_s/public/2020/01/24_WM22_040220006rf_1545R--a87179a33ea7a9499c46c3e3ac30629c.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="360" data-iml="4284" />

?The Rated-R Superstar? won the World Heavyweight Championship a record 7 times and is widely recognized as the face of the title which does not exist in WWE today. He also held the WWE Championship and Tag team Championships multiple times with Randy Orton and Christian.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://fanbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2019/07/edge-wwe.png?w=1200&amp;h=627&amp;crop=1" alt="" width="1200" height="627" data-iml="18649" />

Edge competed in a number of legendary matches and was no stranger to hardcore. He fought against the best names in the business such as Mick Foley, The Hardy Boys, The Undertaker, Randy Orton, and John Cena, all of which were known to take things over the limit.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://media.bleacherreport.com/f_auto,w_800,h_533,q_auto,c_fill/br-img-slides/004/369/791/3edae1d34e679f6662bc29fcaa86cdca_crop_exact.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" data-iml="32096.000000000004" />
<h3>Retirement</h3>
He often performed the most dangerous moves and stunts. The Superstar was known for giving his body to the ring for entertainment, a feature that ultimately took its toll on him.

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.thesun.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/NINTCHDBPICT000455338150.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="1200" data-iml="11364" />

After years of taking hits to his back, Edge finally pulled his last straw. In 2011, shortly after his victory at WrestleMania against Alberto Del Rio, ?The Rated-R Superstar? underwent a medical scan.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

He then received the news that he had spinal stenosis due to the hits he took throughout his career. He was also given the sad news that if he wrestled again, he risked paralysis or even death.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/gallery_img_l/public/photo/image/2011/04/RAW_933_Photo_087.jpg" alt="" width="686" height="384" data-iml="4539" />

The neck injury sustained during the WrestleMania fight proved to be the decisive point in his career. In an emotional speech, Edge bid farewell to his fans and was forced into an uneasy early retirement.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

He was subsequently inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame in 2012 for his contributions to the wrestling world. Edge continued to appear for WWE in various segments as himself but never wrestled.

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/gallery_img_l/public/photo/image/2012/04/HOF_03312012ca_2649.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" data-iml="4710" />
<h3>Return</h3>
No one expected Edge to ever return, but he shocked the world when his music hit at Royal Rumble 2020. As it played through the silence, the crowd roared in what was one of the loudest pops in WWE history.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/RuWNWc-RhP8/maxresdefault.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" data-iml="34481" />

No one could believe what they were seeing as Edge made his way down to the ring, full of emotion. He speared his way through the Rumble and eliminated his friend Randy Orton, who was just about to betray him himself.<span class="Apple-converted-space">?</span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.sportsnet.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/edge-returns-to-the-ring-at-royal-rumble-1040x572.jpg" alt="" width="1040" height="572" data-iml="20639" />

Edge 2022 &#8211; Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements If there ever was a man who put extreme on the map, it would be ?The Rated-R Superstar ? Edge. This name rings long and hard in the minds of WWE fans that respect and love the legend dearly.? Edge is a star that always gives it his best in the ring. There is nothing that he cannot do and manages to stun everyone with his daredevil-like attitude in the ring.? Over the years, fans have grown accustomed to seeing him do the unthinkable in the ring. Edge is one of the most successful Superstars in WWE history and one of the best current wrestlers in the ring. His work in the ring is unparalleled and he is one of the few who carry on the torch of old-school wrestling.? History? Early career Edge began his career wrestling in several independent promotions across Canada. As a college student, he trained in the school boxing ring which had a hard mat. He learned how to limit his damage during falls from here which helped him later on in his career.? His skills were noticed by Bret Hart?s manager Carl De Marco, who recruited him under the WWE banner once he was president of WWF Canada. Edge worked in development territories and lived with a colleague until his career took off.? WWE After impressing superiors, Edge made his debut on Raw on the June 22, 1998 episode.

Their pairing goes back decades and they work very well together. Edge broke out as a solo Superstar once he had received enough recognition.

Retirement He often performed the most dangerous moves and stunts. The Superstar was known for giving his body to the ring for entertainment, a feature that ultimately took its toll on him. After years of taking hits to his back, Edge finally pulled his last straw. In 2011, shortly after his victory at WrestleMania against Alberto Del Rio, ?The Rated-R Superstar? underwent a medical scan.? He then received the news that he had spinal stenosis due to the hits he took throughout his career. He was also given the sad news that if he wrestled again, he risked paralysis or even death.?
