Brock Lesnar is a tough, intimidating man – both on and off the squared circle. Not only does he embody the nickname “The Beast Incarnate”, but his rage and power are also world famous. So, when a loved WWE manager talked about how Lesnar threatened to kill him for touching his then-girlfriend, fans knew exactly what was up.

Kenny Bolin, famed WWE and NWA Manager, shared the story while appearing on Cafe de Rene with Rene Dupree. Bolin and Lesnar used to be tight friends, with the latter coming over to his place frequently to hunt and watch pay-per-views. Bolin even had an exceptional relationship with Lesnar’s then girlfriend Nicole McClain, and the pair used to express affection with a kiss on the cheek.

Why did Brock Lesnar threaten Bolin?

Bolin went into great detail, saying how he was too sweaty after a show at the Boys Club. “Brock’s girlfriend approaches me and she wants to give me a hug and I said, ‘No honey, I’m soaked in sweat. Please don’t touch me.’ So I did the old Hollywood thing to where I put my arms out, never touched her. I didn’t get within three feet of her,” said Bolin.

Lesnar was not happy with the situation at all, as he assumed Bolin had kissed Nicole. He threatened Bolin, asking him to “never ever f**king touch her again.” The confused Bolin thought Lesnar was just trying to work up the crowd. Although he denied the accusations, Lesnar pie-faced the WWE Executive, who didn’t go down. This made Lesnar angrier.

What happened to Brock Lesnar after the altercation?

Jim Cornette, another legendary WWE Manager, promptly asked Lesnar to apologise, saying, “Motherf**ker, you’re in deep s**t. You do not put your hands on anybody in the f**king office. You got beef with one of the boys, that might be one thing. Kenny’s office – you don’t f**king touch Kenny.” However, Lesnar’s apology shockingly made things worse.

As Bolin narrated, “I said, ‘What are you apologizing for?’ ‘For putting my hands on you.’ I said, ‘I just wanted to make sure that I was clear on what you were apologizing for.’ He said, ‘Yep, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have put my hands on you. I had to talk with Jimmy and I was told it’d be a good idea to call and apologize.’ ‘That’s alright, Brock. I appreciate that.’ He says, ‘Don’t ever touch my girlfriend again.’ I said, ‘Okay, Brock.’ So I made a point right then and there that I was never gonna f**king speak to Brock again.”

Further, Bolin added that Cornette suspended Lesnar for two weeks and made him do free appearances, and that they’ve never been on good terms since. Fans are by now well aware of Lesnar’s temper – the massive titan intimidates even his rivals and other wrestlers. However, this story shows what happens when one lets anger get the best of them.
