I'm currently watching Lesnar vs. Mysterio in San Diago for Lesnar's WWE Title. Matches like this prove just how great Lesnar is with his ability to work with a huge variety of opponents & make them all seem legitimate. After the match Hardcore Holly made his return & I remembered how he even made Holly look like a legitimate threat to his title ... well ... as much as you could believe Holly as a threat.
Whether it's with Rey, Holly, London, Kendrick, Cena, Show, Angle, Eddie, or a mop; Brock has made them all look great.
Out of all his brilliant matches over the years, what's your favourite?

Cena at Extreme Rules was awesome.
But I still love most of his matches with Angle. WrestleMania was great, as was their Iron Man Match.

Taker in the Cell, without a doubt. I pretty much put it up there with Michaels / Taker, Triple H / Taker, and Triple H / Batista as possibly the best Cell match, and those aren't easy to compare to.

Vs Taker in the Cell.
Not just my favorite Brock match, but my favorite Cell match, and favorite Taker match. It was just plain brutality. It was what a Cell match should be. And the final sequence with Brock reversing the Tombstone into the F5 is still unreal.

As far as i'm concerned, it's one of the best matches in the past decade. Sometimes things just click & that was one of those nights. Brock was the perfect opponent for a guy like Cena. He actually did the impossible: make Cena likeable. Sure, that was ruined soon after with all the Laurinitus stuff, but for the time being Cena was an actual underdog who fought through the indestructible beast, took everything he could dish out & still managed to find a way to win with the help of a weapon. Most went into the match cheering for Lesnar & came out of it fans of Cena.

Either versus Angle at WrestleMania or on SmackDown (Iron Man Match), can't decide which I like more. Third'd be versus Guerrero @ No Way Out '04.

It's either against Angle at WrestleMania, or against The Rock at Summerslam.

And you're right it was perfect booking. Cena had been able to beat every monster in his path, and fans didn't like that. He's now facing the Destroyer of Worlds, and Brock just beat the shit out of him. Fans wanted Lesnar to win, but as the match went on and Lesnar just kept dishing out the pain, enjoying it, and Cena kept trying to fight, the fans started to cheer for Cena. That's how the match was booked and should have been booked, fans saw the hero get destroyed, but wanted to see the hero come back and slay the monster. Listen to the pop, and look at the crowd when Cena decks Lesnar with the chain wrapped fist.

Probably Extreme Rules vs. Cena, but he had a fantastic match with Benoit on a SmackDown! in I think December '03 that at least deserves my consideration.

Even with the botched ending I still have to go with Angle at Wrestlemania. Cena at Extreme Rules is a close second.

Eddie and Brock had one hell of a big vs small man match, with the only real flaw being the Goldberg presence, even if it had to be done.

Am i the only one who thinks that the Lesnar/Cena was average at best?
Anyways, Vs Taker HIAC. Vs Angle WM & Ironman Match. Vs Eddie NWO 2004 Vs Benoit SD 2003 Vs Punk Summerslam 2013.

Some of his matches with Big Show were just brutal (the good kind).

Cena at Extreme Rules, and Punk at Summerslam. Both were incredible.

I don't remember many of his first run matches, but I did feel that his match against Punk was phenomenal.

His match against Eddie at NWO 2004. One of the best big man/little man matches I've ever seen.

His match against Eddie at NWO 2004. One of the best big man/little man matches I've ever seen. I feel Lesnar is the best at the big man vs. little man dynamic. He's so strong & powerful yet can bump with the best of them. For a man his size to make guys the size of Rey Mysterio look credible & believable is quite astonishing.
