Brock Lesnar is not someone who usually finds himself with egg on his face, but he will struggle to live down tonight’s episode of Raw.
The legendary WWE star and former UFC heavyweight champion is one of the most intimidating men on the planet, walking around at 6’3 and over 286lb according to his ‘billed weight’. But he flopped tonight while attempting to make his big entrance to the ring live on Netflix.
Lesnar made his return to the ring earlier this year and is still one of the top stars in professional wrestling even at the age of 48. He is expected to compete again this weekend at Survivor Series in California, captaining a team that includes Logan Paul.

Brock Lesnar tumbles on the entrance ramp during live WWE show
During tonight’s episode of Monday Night Raw, Brock Lesnar made a rare appearance with his long-time ‘advocate’ Paul Heyman. He also brought along his Survivor Series team that features Logan Paul, Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed and Drew McIntyre.
However, as the team made their way to the ring, Lesnar went to stomp into a pyro segment during his part of the entrance. As the fireworks went off, he fell to the ground comically, landing on his backside before rolling through and quickly getting up to continue the walk.
He seemed to take it well and laughed the moment off, even placing his cowboy hat on the head of Breakker, whose real name is Bronson Rechsteiner. Fans were quick to notice and take to social media, while WWE’s social media pages spliced the clip to remove his embarrassing botch.
Fans claim Brock Lesnar lost his aura during embarrassing WWE botch
After the comical moment, fans seemed to think the way that usually super serious Lesnar handled his slip-up wasn’t enough to save him from ‘negative aura’.
“He’s funny as hell,” one fan wrote. “Brock is the GOAT confirmed.” Another added: “For my own safety I’ll act like it didn’t happen.”
Unfortunately, many fans concurred that he had “lost aura points” for the gaffe, comparing him to Titus O’Neil who famously slipped and slid all the way under the ring apron during the 2019 Greatest Royal Rumble.
