A few months ago Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart appeared in Wrestling Shoot Interviews where he opened up about being a fan of Brock Lesnar. Hart was vocal about the performances Lesnar was giving in the past fees matches in WWE, which he recalled.

The Hitman said, “What do I think of Brock Lesnar? I think Brock Lesnar is an awesome wrestler. I’m really impressed with some of his last 4-5 PPV matches that have been some of the greatest matches in the history of wrestling. In particular, his matches with Daniel Bryan were really good, CM Punk was really good. I think the match he had with The Undertaker a few years ago was just awesome. I think Undertaker, he’s a great, great wrestler.”

He added, “ Brock Lesnar, he’s obviously a tough guy and a great athlete, but he’s got a unique ability as a professional wrestler, which is a whole different thing than UFC. He’s won me over and he’s got a great psychology. He’s a great, great wrestler.”

The 5-time WWE Champion isn’t wrong while calling The Conqueror has a unique ability to understand the business. Even though Lesnar is a top star in WWE, in some of his matches, The Beast has taken to take that extra step to put on a great show.

In the comments below the YouTube, we can see a comment stating Lesnar is a good wrestler because the late Curt Hennig (Mr. Perfect) trained him. We can truly see the shades of Henning’s training when Lesnar performs a perfect German Suplex.
