Lesnar lost his championship to Eddie Guerrero after nearly five months at No Way Out 2004. He then before left the company to chase his dreams elsewhere.
Lesnar made a surprise return to WWE in 2012, but it was not until 2014 that he got a chance to win the WWE title once again. His opportunity came at SummerSlam against John Cena in a match that he dominated in an unprecedented fashion.
The Conqueror hit his opponent with the F5 seconds into the match. He then took him on a painful tour to Suplex City. Sixteen German Suplexes and a few F5s were enough for Lesnar to get the pin and recapture the title he lost about a decade earlier.
