Vera may be 10 times as talented as Brock technically, but if Brock wants to take Vera down and hammer him in the face until the ref stops it, there's nothing Brandon can do.

I actually kinda like this guy now. Ok Brandon’s description of a Lesner fight is absolutely histerical. I actually kinda like this guy now.
