Summary: Here Comes the Pain!
Review: Here's an excert from a WWE magazine......

F-5: A tornado of devastating, destructive power. Strong enough to send automobiles airborne, damage reinforced concrete structures and lift frame houses from their foundations.

Brock Lesnar: "The Next Big Thing" is a force to be reckoned with since his arrival in WWE. The Hardy Boyz, Rob Van Dam, Hulk Hogan, the Rock, Undertaker, Big Show & Kurt Angle have all been left in crumpled heaps ringside. And before the end of his rookie year, he became the youngest WWE Champion in history. WWE has never been rocked by a more powerful and devastating force of nature than Brock Lesnar!

Extras:

-Brock Lesnar vs. WWE World Champion The Rock (Lesnar wins World Title, from SummerSlam, 16:01, 8/25/02)
-WWE World Champion Brock Lesnar vs. the Undertaker in "Hell in the Cell" (from No Mercy, 27:18, 10/20/02)
-Brock Lesnar vs. WWE World Champion Kurt Angle (Lesnar wins World Title, from WrestleMania XIX, 21:04, 3/30/03)
-Two features on Brock Lesnar from Confidental
-3 additional matches!

Encoding: Region 1 (U.S. and Canada only. This DVD will probably NOT be viewable in other countries.)
Aspect Ratio: Full Screen (Standard) 1.33:1 Color
Dolby Digital Stereo

Summary: Excellent DVD
Review: I am a HUGE wrestling fan. My g/f bought this for me recently. It is a great dvd. It has extra matches that I have never seen. Well some of them. I can't get PPV so some of these matches were a treat. Brock and Rock at summerslam i watched twice and think it is a great match. Brock and Big show in their stretcher match was great too surprisingly. It goes into detail how Brock got started in the business and all. He went from a skinny little kid to a big monster. I recommend this dvd for any wrestling fan. Of course non wrestling fans are more harder to please. Check this out,you won't be disappointed.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: I already have this matches on other dvds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I don't know why wwe is releasing a dvd on Brock Lesnar.They could release another dvd on someone whose best matches aren't already out on dvd.WWE could release a dvd out on Rob van Dam,Booker T,Kane,Ric Flair,Kurt Angle,Chris Jericho, and many others.Of all the video footage they should put it out on dvd.They just bought the ECW video footage.Brock Lesnar Don't deserve a dvd give one to someone I mentioned in this review.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's to early for this...Not Now
Review: I guess the WWE was ahead on thinking about this release. When I originally wrote this review, I don't think as fans we ever thought Brok would leave.

Now instead of it being to early, this collection is a nice summation of a career that was much to short.

On a personal note, I do think he was given to much to soon as it relates to the Heavyweight Title.

I don't understand why the WWE rushes to do stuff like this. This happened years ago for both Chris Jericho & Kurt Angle. WWE (then the WWF) made VHS tapes for both guys when they really didn't make a true impact yet, this was also before WWF had access to WCW footage. There are tons of other guys that deserve a DVD before Brock. I am a Brock fan, but he's got a whole career ahead of him.(Yeah right) He hasn't even begun to scratch the surface. I would rather see a DVD for Chris Jericho like they did with Rey Mysterio where they have matches from various organizations or Rob Van Dam who had an impressive career in ECW (I would kill to have the footage on DVD when ECW invaded RAW the first time). I would also like to see a RAW matches DVD. They make Best of RAW but those are mostly segments, where are the great matches they have had over the years?

Not to mention there are a ton of "From the Vault" DVD's they can do...Andre the Giant, Randy Savage, Ricky Steamboat, and that's just the guys from the late 70's & 80's.

I don't think WWE thinks about their fanbase, they are always trying to attract the casual fan. Casual fans don't buy the DVD's these are for the diehards. Please Vince make us happy!

I am happy now, I have all the Brock footage in one place.

Summary: WWE - Brock Lesnar
Review: I thought I would make a review after the DVD was released and give actual facts of the DVD and it's features. Unlike the first four yahoos that just wanted to put in their two cents in before they knew anything. It turned out that they had no clue after all, big shock there. The first chapter of the DVD is the Brock Lesnar segment from Before They Were WWE Superstars 2, and is the only chapter that you actually hear from Brock. The rest of the DVD is Superstars, Officials, Agents, and other WWE personnel speaking very candidly and as them self's and NOT as their "turned up" ring personas. What Paul Hymen contributes is great cause you get to see him as a man and not the little worm he plays on SMACKDOWN! Other contributors include Big Show, Dreamer, Rey, Cena, Angle, and many many more. You learn of the extent of Lesnar's WM19 injury and other great stuff. Unlike what one of the other "review writers" wrote these events are not highlighted, (WWE SMACKDOWN! Ring collapsing, (it is shown but as a clip, it is not even talked about), WWE SMACKDOWN Shut Your Mouth commercial w/Lesnar, or the making of the SMACKDOWN! SYM commercial.) His "inside information" was more like outside information that much is obvious. If you want to write a review, I don't know wait till the product is released and state the truth, and not what your "sources" or imagination tells you.

In all, this DVD get a 5 Star rating. It is a great piece of business.

Summary: DVD Released to Early in Career: Wait. He Already Quit.
Review: This DVD was released in the summer of 2003 after Brock had only been in the WWE for a year and a half. Unfortunately, he has since left the WWE and has tried to start a career in the NFL. The DVD is actually pretty decent. The main part of the DVD is a biography about the life of Lesnar. It follows him in his days growing up, as a high school and college wrestler, and his young career in the WWE.

Again the WWE goes all out with DVD extras. This particular DVD contains six bonus matches.

1. Brock Lesnar vs. Hulk Hogan (8/15/2002 Smackdown)
If Hogan were to win this match, he would take away Lesnar's number one contendership to face The Rock for the Undisputed title at Summerslam. Not the best match, but the crowd was into it and it is important for historical perspectives. This match shows the brutality of Lesnar. (8/10)

2. Brock Lesnar vs. The Rock (Summerslam 2002 - WWE Undisputed Title)
This is Brock's first great match in the WWE. It really showed what Brock could do because he had to try to keep the crowd into the match after the amazing HBK/Triple H match. The crowd was on their feet the whole time. They actually started cheering for Brock and booing The Rock. There are tons of reversals in this match and a pretty decent announce table bump. (9/10)

3. Brock Lesnar vs. Undertaker (No Mercy 2002 - WWE Championship/Hell In A Cell)
This was not the most exciting and fast paced match you will see, but it is one the most brutal. Lesnar bleeds for most of the match and The Undertaker bleeds like no one has bled before. (8.5/10)

4. Brock Lesnar vs. Kurt Angle (Wrestlemania 19 - WWE Championship)
I was looking extremely forward to this match. Unfortunatly, Angle hurt his neck and was going to miss the match. He decided to go on with the match, risking possible paralysis and even death. For this reason, the match was not as good as it could have been, but it still turned out to be probably one the ten best matche sof the year. Amazing and scary spot when Lesnar does the shooting star press. (9/10)

5. Brock Lesnar vs. Big Show (Judgment Day 2003 - WWE Championship/Stretcher Match)
These two competitors built up quite the rivalry in towards the end of 2002 and into 2003. I was a little disappointed in this match because the WWE built this up to be a very bloody, brutal encounter, which did not happen. Nonetheless, it was still an exciting match. Good spot with Lesnar jumping off the forklift. (8.5/10)

6. Brock Lesnar vs. Big Show (6/10/2003 Smackdown - WWE Championship)
Not a great match, but it shows one of the craziest moments in WWE history. The ring collapses under the weight of Lesnar and Big Show. You have to see it to believe it. (7/10)

Other extras include: two Confidential segments, training for Summerslam by Brock and The Rock, and Brock's personal video diary on his first Summerslam experience.

This is a good DVD. I recomend picking it up, but it is not a necessity into your WWE collection.

Overall Rating: 8.5/10

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Mixed feelings
Review: This is like Hogan, Mistero, Micheals, and Guerrero dvds...its all done at the spur of the moment and you got either a few good matches or a bunch of good matches, depending on what dvd you purchase. The documentary on all those dvds I metioned, have poorly done documentarys and this one is the same. Micheals doesnt really have a documentary on his dvd though; Lesnar's matches are alright but not as good as I remember. The Undertaker Hell in The Cell match was good but Paul Heyman yelling at Brock was annoying, Brock looked like he didnt know what he was doing in some spots, and the camera was so annoying a second it would be in the cage, the next outside. I wish they'd decide what on one way and keep it that way. This guy is already gone, this dvd will just show you at how WWE is losing talent left and right.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Brock Edward Lesnar
Review: This WWE VHS video is one of the best ever released by World Wrestling Entertainment. It shows all Brock's highlights from when he a little kid sleeping in his hayloft to joining ametur wrestling at the age of 5. To becoming a three time NCAA Champion. Also, it shows when WWE signed Brock in April of 2001 to a developmental contract. Then it shows his first official match at Backlash 2002 VS. Jeff Hardy. To the match for the WWE Undisputed Championship VS. The Rock. To winning the 2003 Royal Rumble and beating Kurt Angle for the WWE Championship at Wrestlemania XIX. Also, it goes in depth and behind the scences from Brock flying on the WWE plane and pre- match and post match interviews. Also, Brock explains about his business dealings with Paul Heyman to his very good friendship with Kurt Angle. All in all this Brock Lesnar video is the whole complete package if you are a fan of the "Next Big Thing" Brock Lesnar.
