Braun Strowman and Brock Lesnar are two of the toughest competitors to ever step foot in the ring, and when they face off fans know they don’t go easy on each other.
At the Royal Rumble in 2018 Brock Lesnar defended the Universal Title against Kane and Strowman in a triple threat match, and things got pretty intense when Lesnar punched Braun in the head for real.
Braun Strowman recently spoke to talkSPORT about what the vibe was like backstage after the match and he noted that he and Brock had a nice laugh after.
“We laughed about it afterwards. It is what it is. We got to the back and I said ‘Hey, my bad” he said the same thing and we went about our business. We’re both grown ups, we both knew what we were getting into and at the end of the day, we’re both very dominant males and neither of us wanted to give in an inch, so in the end we took an inch from each other.”
The Monster Among Men went on to say that he always approaches matches involving Brock Lesnar as if they’re a real fight.
“Working with Brock I go in with the mentality that it’s a real fight. You have to. I remember Royal Rumble a couple of years ago, I got a little ants in my pants, so did he and we threw some heavy hitters at each other and carried on from there. Let’s face it, Brock’s one of the baddest human beings on the planet and I enjoy it, I like the physical aspect of it. I didn’t get into this thinking it was water polo or tennis or anything like that, I knew this was a full contact sport and when you’re in the ring with Brock Lesnar it is full contact. Ask anybody’s that’s worked with him. Brock brings the big fight and that’s why people pay money to see him.“
