Brock Lesnar has won world championships in WWE and UFC, dominated amateur wrestling, and become one of the most feared athletes on the planet — and he says none of it matters to him. Speaking on Barstool Sports’ Spittin Chiclets podcast, Lesnar opened up about what truly drives him now, and the answer had nothing to do with titles.
“For me, none of my championships or none of my accolades, they all mean nothing. It means nothing to me,” Lesnar said. “My kids are my legacy. In today’s dark-ass world that we’re living in, if you can come out and have good kids — I take a lot of pride in that. When parents come to me and say, ‘Man, your boys are really respectful.’ That pumps my tires, you know?”
Lesnar Says the TV Version of Him Is Not Who He Really Is
Lesnar discussed being a hockey dad to sons Duke and Turk, who are rising through the game in Canada, and also credited daughter Mya, a champion shot putter at Colorado State University. He also addressed the gap between his public persona and the real person behind it. “People see the entertainment Brock Lesnar and they think that that’s who I am, but it’s not who I am. I don’t let people into my circle enough to know. It’s been a mystique for a long time.” Lesnar faces Oba Femi at WrestleMania 42, with retirement rumors swirling around what could potentially be his final WrestleMania appearance.
