#2 Brock Lesnar vs Santos Escobar

Santos Escobar is the perfect antithesis for Brock Lesnar.

Whereas Brock Lesnar is a cyborg capable of steamrolling armies and the best of the best, Santos Escobar is of smaller stature and substitutes power and strength with his cunning, speed, and affiliations.

Santos Escobar has built his own militia with Legado Del Fantasma, bringing in the tandem of Joaquin Wilde and Raul Mendoza, and the femme fatale Elektra Lopez as he looks to take his rightful place on the throne of NXT.

As a one-man wrecking ball, Brock Lesnar would find his antonym in Santos Escobar. Like a bull vs the matador, the former NXT Cruiserweight Champion Santos Escobar would use his speed and intellect to dance around Brock Lesnar.

Lesnar, on the other hand, would look to close the distance and manhandle his opponent, domineering and stripping his enemy piece by piece.


#1 Brock Lesnar vs Johnny Gargano

Brock Lesnar is a talent that works really well when employed against spirited underdogs. His matches with Daniel Bryan, Finn Balor and AJ Styles are prime examples of the styles and their chemistry. Those stars were smaller, technical wrestlers looking to piece together innovative, rapid and intense offense while avoiding the silverback gorilla grappling of former UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar.

These are the in-ring tales that Brock Lesnar tends to tell best.

Johnny Gargano is one such underdog, capable of enduring savagery and brutality to the delight of the fans rooting for him. Johnny sells every match he is in like it could be his last and tells the story of a man determined to defy expectations and reach the top of the mountain.

Brock Lesnar, on the other hand, is the monster sat atop the mountain, the final labor for someone like Johnny Gargano.

If the comparison can be made: If Johnny Gargano is like Superman, enduring an unyielding offense and always rising above those who try to defy him, then Brock Lesnar is Doomsday.

Brock Lesnar is designed to destroy those like Johnny Gargano and assert himself as the most dominant Beast in all of WWE. However, the multi-time WWE Champion would have to throw the kitchen sink and everything underneath at Johnny Gargano should they meet.

Meanwhile, Gargano would have the largest mountain to climb of his career in the Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar.
