Brock Lesnar’s dominance is nothing new, but a specific moment during the 2026 Men’s Royal Rumble has reportedly rubbed some of his peers the wrong way. During the match, Lesnar completely no-sold a flurry of chops from former United States Champion Ilja Dragunov before effortlessly eliminating him. While the live crowd ate it up, the locker room reaction was apparently less enthusiastic.
Wrestlers Send “Eye-Rolling Reactions”
According to Fightful Select, multiple wrestlers responded to the spot with “eye-rolling emojis” and frustration that fans were cheering for Lesnar effectively brushing off Dragunov’s offense. The moment highlighted the disconnect that can sometimes exist between live crowd reactions and the perspective of the talent backstage. As of now, there is no confirmed creative direction for Lesnar, with reports indicating that a rumored match against Oba Femi is not locked in.
