5 Things Brock Lesnar is yet to accomplish in WWE

Even the average wrestling or combat sports fan is cognizant of 'The Beast Incarnate' Brock Lesnar and his impressive accomplishments. No other athlete has been as dominant as he has been in the industry.

The Beast had a successful career in amateur wrestling, where he held the NCAA Division I Heavyweight Championship and, after signing with WWE in 2002, he went on to capture the WWE Championship within six months of his debut. He also won the King of the Ring tournament that very same year.

Brock Lesnar won the Royal Rumble match the following year and went on to win the WWE Title in the main event of WrestleMania XIX. After he left the company, he joined New Japan Pro Wrestling where he captured the IWGP Heavyweight Championship in his inaugural match.

He also competed in the UFC where he enjoyed a successful run with the UFC Heavyweight Championship. After returning to WWE, Brock Lesnar shattered The Undertaker's streak, won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Universal Championship, and the Money in the Bank contract.

That's a lot of feats for one man. Despite all this success, Brock Lesnar still hasn't done it all. So, what is he still lacking, you ask? Well, even if you didn't, here are five things Brock Lesnar is yet to accomplish in WWE.

#5. The United States Championship

The Beast is yet to win the US title

The WWE United States Championship has been around since 1975 and since that time, many legends have worn the title around their waste. The most notable US Champions include Harley Race, Ric Flair, Lex Luger, "Stunning" Steve Austin, Bret Hart, and John Cena.

The U.S. Title is the second oldest active championship belt in the company (behind the WWE Championship), though it has only been commissioned by WWE since 2001. Nevertheless, it's still a prestigious belt that many Superstars strive for.

It is also one of the championships that Brock Lesnar hasn't competed for or held in his entire career. Winning the title will elevate its status and make it even more worthy. Adding another prize in his stacked collection will make The Beast Incarnate's career even more decorated than it already is.

#4 Competing/appearing in NXT

Lesnar has never appeared on the black and gold brand

Brock Lesnar may have come up through WWE developmental, but he's never performed in NXT.

NXT has been the hottest brand in professional wrestling for a long time. It was originally created as a competition show to find WWE's next breakout star, but it went on to become the company's developmental territory, which showcases the Superstars of tomorrow.

Even after the black and gold brand replaced FCW (Florida Championship Wrestling) as WWE's development brand, many big names still appeared on the show. Former world champions Chris Jericho, Randy Orton, Batista, Sheamus and Rob Van Dam have all wrestled in NXT.

Even 'The Leader of the Cenation' John Cena appeared in NXT in 2013 while he was the WWE Champion. This tells us that NXT is also capable of holding even the biggest Superstars in WWE - even one as huge as Brock Lesnar.

Another huge name that fans wouldn't mind seeing on the show is former Universal Champion Brock Lesnar. Matt Riddle took multiple shots at Lesnar and even stated multiple times that he will retire The Beast.

It would've been awesome if Brock Lesnar made a surprise appearance on NXT and attacked Riddle with an F5. Even though Matt Riddle is now a SmackDown competitor, it'll still be a great moment to see Brock in NXT one day and he could confront another upcoming star such as Keith Lee.

#3 Capturing the Tag Team Championship

Brock Lesnar has rarely competed in tag team matches in WWE. His last televised tag match in the company was in 2004 when he teamed up with Big Show to take on Eddie Guerrero and John Cena on the February 12th episode of SmackDown.

Before joining the main roster, however, Brock Lesnar formed a tag team with his friend Shelton Benjamin in Ohio Valley Wrestling under the name The Minnesota Stretching Crew. They won the OVW Southern Tag Team Championship on three separate occasions.

That was in OVW, then WWE's developmental territory. Since then, The Beast has never held tag team gold in WWE, and it doesn't look like he'll be Tag Team Champion anytime soon.

It would've been good to see Lesnar reunite with Benjamin to challenge for the Raw or SmackDown Tag Team Titles. They could've been a legitimate tag team. They even had a very short lived reunion at the Royal Rumble - before Lesnar punked him and tossed him out. Lesnar's career is nearing its end, so it's most likely that The Beast will retire without holding tag team gold.

#2 The Intercontinental Championship

The Beast Incarnate hasn't held a mid-card championship in WWE

Another championship that Brock Lesnar has never held is the Intercontinental Championship. He did receive an opportunity at the title in 2002 though when he faced Rob Van Dam for the belt at WWE Vengence, but he lost via disqualification.

Just like the U.S. Title, the Intercontinental Championship is a coveted prize that has been held by many top Superstars namely "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Jeff Hardy, The Rock, Edge, Shawn Michales, Bret Hart and many others. Superstars such as Chris Jericho, The Honky Tonk Man and Mr. Perfect have been considered by many to be the best IC Champion of all time.

Even though Brock Lesnar has competed in the main event picture in his entire career, he could've also had a decent reign as Intercontinental Champion. This would've elevated the championship's status and whoever defeated Lesnar would've been a credible champion.

Adding the title to his long list of achievements would've put Brock Lesnar in the discussion for one of the greatest champions in WWE.

#1. Becoming a Grand Slam Champion

Brock Lesnar needs to win the IC title, US title and the RAW/SD Tag Team Championship to become a Grand Slam Champion

Brock Lesnar may be a decorated athlete, but he's not a Grand Slam Champion.

What is a Grand Slam Champion? A Grand Slam Champion is a wrestler who has won every major championship (typically four titles) in a promotion - of their gender, anyway. In WWE, you need to win one world title (currently the WWE or Universal Championship), United States Championship, Intercontinental Championship and any variation of the Tag Team Championship.

Some of the Superstars who accomplished this milestone include Edge, Big Show. The Miz, and most recently Kofi Kingston and Rey Mysterio. The current SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley is recognized as the first-ever WWE Women's Grand Slam Champion.

The Beast Brock Lesnar is just three titles away from joining the hall of Grand Slam Champions. Although holding that title isn't a major feat, it's still a great accomplishment. A huge star such as Lesnar joining the list of legends to achieve this glory would be another great career attainment for The Beast.
