5) Triple H, SummerSlam 2012

The Game and The Beast went one-on-one live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles on Aug. 19, 2012. Lesnar and Triple H threw everything they had at each other, with Lesnar kicking out of the Pedigree and Triple H being able to break out at two after an F-5.

In the end, Lesnar won by locking in the Kimura Lock for the second time in the match, leading to a spent Triple H tapping out as The Beast picked up his first SummerSlam victory since a decade earlier at the 2002 event.

4) Kurt Angle, SummerSlam 2003

The Olympic hero is the only man to ever eke out a win against Lesnar at SummerSlam and the victory occurred at the American West Arena in Phoenix Ariz., on Aug. 24, 2003.

Lesnar and Angle put on an excellent match and Vince McMahon interfered on behalf of The Beast, but it didn't help as Angle was able to use the Ankle Lock to make Lesnar tap in the ring.

As a result, Angle retained the WWE Championship and got revenge from WrestleMania XIX. The match was a classic, but ranks this low due to Lesnar being on the losing end.

3) CM Punk, SummerSlam 2013

The Beast vs. The Best occurred live from the Staples Center on Aug. 18, 2013, as Paul Heyman led Lesnar against his former charge in CM Punk. The match was a brutal war as both men used weapons and brawled for over 25 minutes of back-and-forth action.

The only thing that hampered it, perhaps, was Heyman's constant involvement, but it showed his desperation to help his client win.

After Punk took Heyman out for interrupting a pin fall and submission he had on Lesnar, which in the process made The Best in the World look good as a threat to The Beast, Lesnar nailed Punk multiple times with a steel chair. Lesnar then hit a devastating F-5 onto a steel chair to finish off Punk and collect another victory.

2) John Cena, SummerSlam 2014

Two of the WWE's biggest names collided under the summer's brightest lights when Lesnar and Cena went toe-to-toe for the richest prize in the game live from the Staples Center on Aug. 17, 2014.

Lesnar welcomed Cena to Suplex City, hitting 16 German suplexes during the match and maniacally enjoying the punishment he doled out.

While the match wasn't a five-star classic, it established Lesnar as the true Beast Incarnate following the end of The Streak and gave Cena haters something to enjoy as the face of the WWE's offense was limited and he was beaten down mercilessly.

Lesnar, finally bored enough to end the match, hit Cena with one final F-5 and pinned him to the mat to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship for the fourth time in his career, setting off the storyline of an unstoppable monster atop the WWE that lasted all the way up until WrestleMania 31.

1) The Rock, SummerSlam 2002

Lesnar's first ever SummerSlam triumph may have been his greatest of all-time as he battled The People's Champion for the Undisputed Championship at the Nassau Coliseum in Long Island, N.Y. on Aug. 25, 2002.

The match was a memorable back-and-forth affair with the veteran Rock taking on a rookie in Lesnar in a true pass-the-torch type of moment for the WWE. One great spot even saw The Rock deliver a Rock Bottom to Paul Heyman through the announce table for good measure.

In the end, The Beast thwarted off a final Rock Bottom attempt from The Great One and hit a scintillating F-5 to notch the three count and capture his first World Championship. Lesnar, then at age 25, was at the time the youngest WWE Champion in history.

The Beast has had several awesome opponents and memorable matches at SummerSlam, and things get even more interesting on Aug. 23 when he takes on The Undertaker at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
