Lesnar grew up on a farm near Webster, South Dakota. He took up wrestling and went from a 3rd place finish at the South Dakota prep championships to a 33-0 record in his senior year of high school! He attended Bismarck Junior College in North Dakota, where he earned his keep by winning the Heavyweight bracket in the North Dakota State University's annual Bison Open Tournament -- beating Brent Boeschans of Minnesota (a major force in NCAA wreslting). In 1998, Brock won the title again, and became the Heavyweight bracket champion on the National Junior College Athletic Association, just before BJC discontinued its wrestling program (due to financial cuts). J Robinson, couch in Minnesota, watched in awe as Brock wrestled at the NJCAA Finals, and got Brock to sign for a Minnsota team. In just 2 years at BJC, Brock had accumulated a 56-3 record!
Brock seized the attention of Big Ten and NCAA wrestling fans with his physique and domination of the game (24-1 record) while he played for the Minnesota Gophers -- His only loss belonging to Iowa State's Trent Hynek. Minnesota easily furled the competetion in the Big Ten, coming out on top and winning the title in 1999 -- thus ending a 25-year win streak of arch-rival Iowa. Lesnar, unfortunatly, lost in the finals of the NCAA Championships to Stephen Neal of Cal State (Bakersfield) in a 3-2 decision that cost Minnesota a chance to be National Champions; their arch-rival, Iowa State, won instead.
In 2000, Brock and his associates wanted to prove that the events of 1999 were no fluke. Lesnar tore the competition up, tossing aside his opponents like plastic figurines, coasting a 26-1 record, as he ranked the #1 Heavyweight in the Big Ten! Brock would go on to avenge his loss by destroying the Heavyweight bracket at the NCAA Finals, then defeating Wes Hand with a 3-2 decision in overtime with an escape in the final match! Overall, Brock's career record is 106-5, with a combination of both BJC and Minnesota.
Now--came the WWF (now the WWE after much controversy with the World Wildlife Foundation). Recalling his many trash-talks about Iowa State and various other schools, and with the fast success of former Olympic Gold medalist Kurt Angle, Brock signed for a training deal with the WWE.
If you saw Summer Slam 2002, you would have found that Brock Lesnar took The Rock's title, making him the undisputed champion of the ring! Now, with people fighting to take Brock's new, golden title, Brock builds in mass, strength, and skill to defend the title he holds so proudly. Good lucky prying those belts from his cold, dead fingers, men!
