Untold Brock Lesnar Story from Vikings Tryout Fight Revealed by NFL Insider in New Video on WWE Icon

Legendary WWE Superstar Brock Lesnar is known for taking his opponents to "Suplex City," but NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero divulged Wednesday that Lesnar's propensity for suplexes is not limited to the ring.

While serving as a guest host on the Rich Eisen Show (beginning at the 4:50 mark of the video), Pelissero told a story about a memorable moment involving Lesnar while he was attempting to make the Minnesota Vikings' roster in 2004:

After leaving wrestling, Lesnar took part in the Vikings' training camp and saw action in some preseason games.

Pelissero specifically recalled a joint practice with the Kansas City Chiefs that devolved into chaos when a Vikings defensive player hit Chiefs quarterback Trent Green in the area of his knee.

That led to an on-field brawl, and Lesnar emerged from the mass of humanity by suplexing a Chiefs player.

Pelissero noted that Lesnar eventually emerged from the melee, strutting around with no helmet on, while his Vikings teammates patted him on the shoulder pads.

While Pelissero has been covering the NFL for over 20 years, he noted that Lesnar's suplex of a Chiefs player during training camp is still "one of the wildest things" he has ever seen in the sport.

Although Lesnar did not end up making the team, he left a lasting impression during his short stint as an NFL player.

Things still worked out for him, too, as he went on to become a heavyweight champion in UFC before returning to WWE in 2012 and adding to his already impressive résumé, becoming a 10-time world champion in his WWE career.
