Brock Lesnar hasn't been seen in action ever since his WWE title loss to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36. The Beast is bound to come back at some point though, as he still manages to move the rating needle, around 18 years after his WWE debut.

Lesnar is someone who was pushed initially as an intimidating behemoth who gave off a "lone wolf" vibe. He appeared first on the main roster during the post-WrestleMania 18 edition of Monday Night RAW, attacking a bunch of mid-card acts in the process, and brutalizing Spike Dudley in the ring.

His first reign saw him quickly become one of the biggest Superstars in the business and Lesnar's second run only made his star grow more.

In the following list, we'll take a look at eight WWE Superstars who teamed up with Lesnar during his WWE run, including his stint in OVW.

Lesnar has mostly been portrayed as someone who likes to work alone and this fact makes these following pairings all the more intriguing.


#8 Tajiri

On the road to WWE No Mercy 2002, Brock Lesnar was forced to compete in a Tag Team match alongside none other than Tajiri. Lesnar was in a feud with The Undertaker at the time and was clearly upset wuth the situation.

Tajiri and Lesnar took on Edge and Rey Mysterio on an episode of WWE SmackDown. The match ended with Rey and Edge picking up the win. Brock wasn't thrilled with the loss and ended up destroying Tajiri. He would go on to annihilate The Undertaker inside Hell In A Cell at No Mercy to retain his WWE title.


#7 John Cena

Back in late 2003, Lesnar was the most hated heel on SmackDown. Two weeks after winning the WWE title in a 60-minute Iron Man match against Kurt Angle on SmackDown, Lesnar competed in a Tag Team match on the blue show.

Lesnar teamed up with one of his most formidable opponents, John Cena, who was another despised heel at the time. The duo took on The Undertaker and Kurt Angle and ended up defeating the legendary makeshift team. The ones who saw Lesnar maul Cena at SummerSlam 2014 would certainly be intrigued at watching these two on the same side in the past.

#6 Eugene

Soon after Lesnar left WWE in March 2004, Eugene made his way up to the main roster and was featured heavily on RAW for the next few months, including a main event caliber match against Triple H at SummerSlam 2004. He donned the gimmick of a special person who was happy to be wrestling alongside his favorite Superstars.

Around four years before he was promoted to the main roster, Eugene competed in a 6-Man Tag Team match at OVW, alongside Brock Lesnar and Big Show. The trio defeated Mr. Black, Rob Conway, and The Collector in what was Lesnar's third match in OVW.


#5 X-Pac

Days before making his first-ever main roster appearance, Brock Lesnar competed in a string of dark matches as well as live show bouts. On the March 10, 2002, edition of WWE Live, Lesnar teamed up with former D-X member X-Pac. The duo took on Crash Holly and Randy Orton and managed to score a win over them.

Both Lesnar and Orton would soon make their way to the main roster shows and go on to become the youngest WWE and World Champions respectively in the next two years.

#4 Randy Orton

At SummerSlam 2016, Brock Lesnar launched a barbaric attack on Randy Orton during the main event of the show. Orton ended up getting busted open and the victory was awarded to Lesnar.

Around 14 years before this match took place, Orton and Lesnar teamed up on one occasion while both were honing their craft in OVW. The duo surprisingly lost a Tag Team match to Steven Richards and ECW legend Tommy Dreamer.


#3 Mr. America

Soon after WrestleMania 19, Mr. McMahon fired Hulk Hogan, prompting the latter to come back as Mr. America on SmackDown. The patriotic fan-favorite Superstar soon got into a feud with some of the top heels on the Blue brand.

On the June 24, 2003 edition of SmackDown, a blockbuster 6-Man Tag Team match took place. The villainous trio of Big Show, Shelton Benjamin, and Charlie Haas took on Lesnar, Mr. America, and Kurt Angle. The heels stood tall when all was said and done, with Big Show pinning Mr. America to score the win for his team.

#2 Batista

When Batista returned to WWE in 2014, he won the Royal Rumble match and sealed his ticket to the main event of WrestleMania 30. During that time, Batista and Brock Lesnar shared the ring in a segment on an episode of WWE RAW.

A fight between the two behemoths was teased, but nothing came of it. The match remained a pipe dream and it doesn't look like we will ever get to see these two monsters go at it.

Back when Batista was in OVW, he was known as Leviathan. Mere months before making their way to the main roster, Lesnar and Leviathan teamed up on WWE Live and defeated the makeshift duo of Shelton Benjamin and Randy Orton.

After WrestleMania 18, all four of these competitors went on to make their debuts on the main roster in a span of two months. Benjamin made a name for himself as the best pure athlete of the time, while the other three Superstars ended up becoming larger than life characters in WWE.

#1 Eddie Guerrero

At No Way Out 2004, Eddie Guerrero took on Brock Lesnar with the WWE title on the line, going into the match as the ultimate underdog. He had won the 15-Man "SmackDown Royal Rumble" to earn the opportunity.

Guerrero ended up defeating Lesnar in one of the biggest upsets in WWE history, after some assistance from Goldberg. He went on to successfully defend the title against Kurt Angle at WrestleMania 20. Around two years before they collided, Lesnar and Eddie once teamed up on an episode of RAW, in June 2002.

This was when Lesnar had recently made his WWE debut, and Eddie was a heel. Lesnar and Eddie took on two fan favorites in Bubba Ray Dudley and Rob Van Dam. The villains stood tall when the match came to an end. Lesnar would go on to defeat RVD in the King of the Ring finals to bag an opportunity at the WWE title at SummerSlam, where he would put down The Rock to become the youngest WWE Champion.
