Brock Lesnar wins Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Wrestler Of The Year award

Brock Lesnar was voted as the best wrestler of the year

Brock Lesnar was voted Wrestler of the Year for 2014 in the year-end poll of Pro Wrestling Illustrated readers. Lesnar competed in just four matches in 2014, but they were enough to convince 30 percent of those voting that he was worthy of the honor for the second time in his career.

Lesnar made history by ending The Undertaker's WrestleMania unbeaten streak in April and then beat John Cena for the WWE World Heavyweight title at SummerSlam in August in perhaps the most lopsided WWE title match ever. Lesnar was followed in the voting by Daniel Bryan (23%), AJ Styles (17%), and John Cena (16%).

NXT's Charlotte was voted Rookie of the Year and she personally acknowledged her achievement via Instagram.
