Every athlete has a surge from being the underdog and being undervalued at some point in their career, but Brock Lesnar is an exception. The Beast Incarnate, who may give a person one of the most terrifying experiences of his life, joined the three-letter corporation. He soon crossed the curtain for the first time, at which point it became obvious that he would be the next big thing.
Notably, Joe Rogan became a fan of his after seeing one of his matches from his initial WWE run. Rogan has a Spotify podcast named The Joe Rogan Experience, which is widely popular all over the world. It has no predetermined structure as it covers a wide range of subjects. Once, the UFC color commentator mentioned Lesnar’s botch at WrestleMania 19 during which he almost escaped death, which led to Rogan becoming a fan.

On a 2011 episode of his podcast, Rogan noted that Lesnar was always a freak and everyone knew he was just an alien. Moreover, he talked about the day when The Beast Incarnate made Rogan’s jaw drop.
He stated, “He was 300 pounds of solid muscle, right? He gets on top of the f** turnbuckle or whatever the hell it is. And he stands on the ropes and flips through the air and lands on his head. Lands on his f*** head, he flew through the air and landed on his head, and he was still conscious. And he climbed on top of the guy and still got the pin. And if you watch, you’ll know that supposed to kill the people. How did that not kill him? Who is this guy?”
