Chael Sonnen spoke highly of The Beast Brock Lesnar

Brock Lesnar has done a stellar job in both his MMA career and WWE career. The American has won titles in both and has seamlessly transitioned to and from the organisations.

Lesnar is currently the WWE champion and will face off against Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36. The American has been incredible over the years and his domination in WWE has been unbelievable.

Ariel Helwani spoke about Lesnar’s debut almost 20 years ago, while Sonnen went on to suggest how Vince McMahon created The Beast:

“If you are in the presence of Brock Lesnar, you feel something. I think he was very carefully crafted by Vince McMahon.”

The former UFC star also highlighted why Lesnar didn’t speak much, and that was also down to McMahon:

“Brock has never spoken a whole lot. The reason he doesn’t come out and do interviews, the reason he has the advocate, Paul Heyman is because Vince McMahon has a belief ‘Monsters don’t speak’.

“And I believe, in a rare case for marketing purposes, less has always been more, and that is the case for Lesnar.”

Sonnen is right in saying that he never spoke much, but he didn’t need to thanks to his performances in the ring.

Lesnar looking to do it again on the big stage

The Beast did win the UFC Heavyweight title in his third fight in the promotion but didn’t spend too much time there.

He made a return to the WWE and then went back to UFC before returning to the wrestling ring. Lesnar would now be looking to keep the WWE title, and it is incredible that he has been doing this for almost 20 years.

WrestleMania 36 is another feather in his cap, and it will be interesting to see if he keeps his title.
