This incident happened during Brock Lesnar's media tour after he was announced to make his MMA return at UFC 200 back in 2016. The Beast and the dog met in the green room of ESPN.

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

In the video above, The Beast Incarnate can be seen feeding treats to a dog. Lesnar even tricked the puppy and ate off one of the treats after an epic tease. We must say, Lesnar would make an excellent dog trainer.

Brock Lesnar wasn't giving in to the adorable dog's enthusiastic desire to have more treats as he told the dog to 'beat it'. What else did the dog expect, eh?


#5. He went out of his way to put Drew McIntyre over

It's a shame that Drew McIntyre winning the WWE Championship from Brock Lesnar happened without a single fan in attendance at the WWE PC as it would have gotten a massive pop from a live audience.

WWE did a fine job of building up towards Drew McIntyre's coronation, and credit has to be given to Brock Lesnar for being motivated towards the cause.

During an interview with talkSPORT and Sportskeeda's Alex McCarthy, Drew McIntyre revealed how Brock Lesnar helped him behind the scenes leading up to their WrestleMania showdown.

McIntyre called Lesnar an elite Superstar who was on a level of his own. He highlighted an unscripted moment from RAW when Brock Lesnar signalled McIntyre to hit him with another Claymore kick as the crowd was really into the segment. McIntyre said that only a select few people understand the business the way Brock Lesnar does.

In my experience, Brock has gone above and beyond to ensure I look as good as I can possibly look.
I'm sure you probably noticed, one of those kicks wasn't necessarily planned! He went out of his way – he felt the crowd because that's how good he is and I'm a professional. There were no physical cues so we just kept going. And I was like, 'Wow, this guy is unbelievable' and I'm glad I'm at a level where I can read him at the same time. We're working together here, and he's more than willing to go overboard to make me look as good as possible and make me.
In my experience of anyone I've been in the ring with – and even talking with him backstage – in terms of learning it's like wow… this guy gets it more than anybody I've ever spoken to. There's a superstar level and being over level, and then there's the elite level that very few people get to.

A backstage report also revealed that people in the WWE were really impressed with Brock Lesnar's efforts in putting McIntyre over at the Show of Shows.

Irrespective of what you've heard about the man, if Brock Lesnar likes you, then he'd go out of his way to make you look like a million bucks.
