Brock Lesnar On Fighting His Way Through Childhood

Brock Lesnar may be known for being a fierce opponent in the ring but apparently, his love of fighting might be genetic.

During a recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, Brock Lesnar spoke about his childhood including coming from a known family of fighters and his early experience throwing people through tables, saying:

“I was fighting as a kid. The local people from Webster, South Dakota will tell you the Lesnar family were fighters. I was six years younger than my two older brothers who were getting out of jail on Monday mornings and going to school because of street fights. I grew up with that stigma. We went to street dances, I went there to fight. That’s what we did. That’s what I did, anyway. Then it was girls and have a couple of drinks. My mom said, ‘You have to make some money with this stuff.’ It put my mom and dad through hell. We were fighting all the time. My brothers were fighting and it was World War 3. I fought my older brothers, put them through kitchen tables when I finally grew up and had enough of their shit. I was probably 18. I put my brother through the China cabinet. My mom and dad just cracked a beer as was, ‘ah, this needed to happen’.”

Brock Lesnar won the WWE Championship at the Elimination Chamber in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia after defeating Seth Rollins, Riddle, AJ Styles and Austin Theory inside the steel structure whereas Bobby Lashley was removed from the match due to injury.

As previously speculated, Lesnar is scheduled to face Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 38 in April.
