Brock Lesnar

For some reason, Brock “Don’t ever say I’m on steroids even though I’m always on steroids” Lesnar had a giant tattoo of a sword drawn onto his chest. To say this is a bad tattoo is an understatement, for no other reason than how many people joke about what else it resembles.

Lesnar is a dominant wrestler/mixed martial arts fighter who got his start in the WWE and now bounces back and forth between the pretend fighting league and the UFC in between doping violations.

Lesnar and his goofy tat were dominant at one point, but now serve as Dana White’s go-to side piece when Conor McGregor is resting or taking a never-ending hiatus. It’s too bad because it would be exciting to see Lesnar clean up and fight Stipe Miocic, though I doubt he would at this point given the money he is making from the boost in stardom after returning to the WWE.

Joking aside, I actually like Lesnar. The dominant heavyweight lives in Saskatchewan, Canada, on a giant ranch in a small town outside of Regina that includes his world-class training facility. He was extremely entertaining to watch in the UFC (and assuming the WWE also) and as bad as the tattoo is, I would never say any of this to his face.

“Yeah, Brock. It’s so cool! I was thinking of getting one myself!”

Brock’s tattoo hits the bad side of our list here, but if he asks, we’ll say it’s great. So great!
