Top Ten: WWE Superstar Debuts

October 14, 2011

Number 3: Brock Lesnar: March 18, 2002 WWE Monday Night Raw

The night after WrestleMania 18, Lesnar made the biggest impact in one night. Even though he interfered with Maven, Al Snow, and Spike Dudley, Lesnar completely annihilated these guys, and was later deemed as "The Next Big Thing." It was his look, his skills, and his F5 that shocked the crowd, that had kids closing their eyes, and adults picking their jaws off the ground. He would have a feud with the Hardy Boyz, managed by Paul Heyman, and become King of the King. Later on, he would turn a crowd against The Rock and to him at Summerslam. He would become the WWE Champion, and the fastest rising star in the history of the company. Was his debut memorable, yes. It may not have been as shocking, but the way he was booked and the overall success he had at such a quick time, made the fans believe this was the future. If it wasn't for that damn NFL, Lesnar could have become The Next Best Thing.
