Brock Lesnar is without a doubt one of the most intimidating performers to ever step foot in the squared circle, and the people who would legitimately step up to the former UFC Champion are few and far between.
Last year on the Road to WrestleMania 36 Drew McIntyre found himself wrapped up in a feud with Brock Lesnar, and it sounds like McIntyre really got into it.
In his new book A Chosen Destiny the former WWE Champion explained that during their feud he got so intense that he was ready to drop Brock Lesnar if the occasion called for it.
“Brock swaggered out to take up my challenge and I saw the manic look in his eyes. You know when Brock’s into it. You can feel it. The air bristles with electricity. He generates a forcefield of malevolent energy and he was bringing that into that ring like he was about to have a brawl in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.”
“If you could have read my mind, you’d have known I was thinking, If you pull a funny one out here, Brock, if you pull a fast one, I’ll drop you in a second. That was the stuff that was going through my head. I worked myself into such a frenzy of aggression that we could have done that match in a bar, no cameras there. I was so focused and fired up like I was going into a real fight.”
Ultimately Drew McIntyre went on to challenge Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship, and he defeated The Beast Incarnate to become the WWE Champion for the first time in his career.
