Brock Lesnar vs AJ Styles (Survivor Series 2017)
Brock Lesnar was not exactly known for having long matches. He was a sprint rather than a marathon competitor, and only when he was given the right opponent would greatness occur.
The larger wrestlers couldn’t bump for him as the smaller ones could. Which is exactly why his Champion vs Champion tilt against A.J. Styles was such an entertaining affair.
Anything that Styles touches is going to turn to gold. He is one of the best wrestlers on the planet and could drag a good match out of a broomstick if motivated enough. Luckily, Brock Lesnar was no broomstick and was more than capable of putting in the work.
He and Styles put together a tight 15 minutes, seeing the Phenomenal One work on the legs of The Beast. A move that nearly saw him take the victory, but it was the power of Brock Lesnar that shone through.
At this point in Brock Lesnar’s career, the victory was almost a sure thing, but the journey that he and A.J. Styles took to get there was the best match of either man’s WWE tenure.
