7 Times Brock Lesnar went off script in the WWE

#5 The gory Hell in a Cell match against The Undertaker

There were times when chair shots and bloodshed were a staple feature on WWE programming. PG Ratings came in and WWE moved to a more family-friendly approach which has inarguably taken the sheen off an exhilarating product. Don’t we miss the good old days?

Nonetheless, the mere appearance of blood on WWE TV in the PG Era would have Vince McMahon throwing a fit backstage, albeit a few occasions where he would have sanctioned it himself. He wasn't prepared for what happened in the rubber match between Lesnar and Undertaker in their trilogy at Hell in a Cell 2015.

The brutal 18-minute showdown proved to be a fitting final chapter in the engaging rivalry between the veterans. However, while fans enjoyed the chaotic display in what was truly Hell in a Cell, Vince McMahon was reportedly ‘freaking out’ backstage after Lesnar was busted open a few minutes into the match. The boss sent a few doctors out to clean Lesnar’s cut up but the Beast reciprocated by attacking the medics.

As revealed by Mike Johnson of PWInsider, the attack on the doctors was a 100% shoot and happened in the spur of the moment. The bloodshed too wasn’t a result of blading and happened the hard way. Even the Undertaker was busted open by the bare-knuckle punches of Lesnar later on in the match, which further highlighted the alleged unprofessionalism of the Beast.

It’s believed that both Undertaker and Lesnar were trying their best to make the grand finale a spectacle and incorporated bloody elements to suit the Hell in a Cell theme without the approval of the boss of course.

McMahon wasn’t too pleased, especially with Lesnar for assaulting the doctors in a fit of rage.
