A few years ago, Bruce Prichard talked about the early 2000s WWE  on his Something to Wrestle podcast with Conrad Thompson. Thompson asked Prichard about a photo that was visible from his camera that showed him with a broken nose. Prichard revealed that it was Lesnar who broke his nose while they were in Saskatchewan.

He explains that in a segment, Lesnar was locked in a room by the FBI, which had a forklift. Prichard continued, “When the forklift was starting to remove the walls start to cave in on Brock, and Brock being Brock, decided to break out of the room on his own and started kicking the walls in, and when he did the wall met my face and that was a result of it. He broke my nose in three different places. He broke my orbital socket, split my eye wide open, and caved in my sinuses.”

Then he made sure to mention that his photo was taken after three days of the incident. As there were no cameras back then on the set, no one got to see the real injury. Prichard also mentioned that by the time they took the photo, the doctor had already reduced much of the damage.

While this was an accident, Lesnar doesn’t go easy on wrestlers in the ring at all. Just a few years has enough evidence about the chaos and mayhem that Lesnar brings to wrestling which is unlike anyone else.

The most recent one has to be his Raw after Mania segment with Cody Rhodes. While agreeing to partner with the American Nightmare, he shocked everyone by turning on Rhodes and beating him to a pulp.

Apart from that, his brutal rivalry with Bobby Lashley also saw segments of both heavyweights destroying arenas when they clashed. Lesnar’s clash with Roman Reigns at SummerSlam was also iconic when he brought a tractor to flip the entire ring during their match.
