He Was Looking Down on Japanese People: WWE Star Exposes Brock Lesnar WhileRecalling His Emot
During his long career in WWE, Brock Lesnar has made plenty of rivals. His massive body and the personality that he carries scare the hell out of his opponents. That’s why he is known as The Beast Incarnate who once made a WWE superstar cry like a baby.
He was no one else but Shinsuke Nakamura, the NJPW legend himself. The five-time world champion confessed his worst day at pro wrestling was this one. It was the first time he cried after losing a match.
This historic match dates back to 2006, when Lesnar went to Japan. As per records, not many were satisfied with the fight. However, things looked different through the lens of Nakamura.
WWE Superstar Shinsuke Nakamura Claims Brock Lesnar Was “Unprofessional” in First Encounter
The intense match took place for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship, where The Conqueror was defending his title. More than 40,000 fans witnessed the ruthless fight in Tokyo Dome.
Nakamura on The Beast’s disrespect for the promotion
The match moved the Japanese pro wrestler to an extent that he mentioned it in his King of Strong-Style book. His words are quite straightforward in the book and explain a lot about Lesnar. He described Brock as being disrespectful to the promotion.
Even though The Next Big Thing spoke about how he respects New Japan, his actions depicted a different story.
He wrote, “First, Lesnar was saying all this stuff about how he respected New Japan, but it felt to me like that was just for show, that he didn’t really respect the promotion. Like, somewhere, he was looking down on Japanese people.”
It felt to The Black Saviour that the American wrestler had little value for the match. All this left Nakamura heartbroken.
WWE Superstar confessed a vulnerable truth about getting defeated by Brock Lesnar
In the book, he also shared a vulnerable moment that many wrestlers would never bring up again if happened to them. Nakamura talked about him losing against The Beast and getting emotional after it. He wrote, “I lost the match, and that was the first time I cried at pro wrestling after a match.”
Further, he explained his emotional turmoil at that time. To describe it, he wrote, “It was the main event at the Tokyo Dome. This was a pretty hallowed stage, and I knew I hadn’t fought the way I imagined I would.”
After all these events, the 42-year-old wrestler joined WWE in 2016. Since then, he has named several titles, including the NXT Championship and the WWE United States Championship title. Currently, he performs under the blue brand where he fights like no one else.
