On the November 24 episode of WWE RAW, during a high-stakes buildup to the upcoming Survivor Series WarGames 2025, the normally intimidating Brock Lesnar surprised the WWE Universe — but not with a suplex or knockout. Instead, the 48-year-old powerhouse slipped and fell flat on his back while making his dramatic entrance. As the pyros went off and fans braced for his signature stomp-pose, the ramp betrayed him: the floor was slick, and when he stomped, his footing gave way. In a split second, “The Beast Incarnate” was on his backside, mid-entrance.
What followed was not a panicked scramble — but laughter. Lesnar rolled through the fall, jumped back to his feet, and swaggered down the ramp with a grin, refusing to let the botch derail the moment.
Chaos in the Ring — and a Memorable Aftermath
The slip might have stolen the spotlight, but the show went on. Lesnar joined forces with Drew McIntyre, Logan Paul, Bron Breakker, and Bronson Reed as part of the heel side in the WarGames advantage match. Tensions exploded into a full-blown brawl involving face side stars like Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, CM Punk, and The Usos. Lesnar’s entrance flop didn’t prevent him from diving into chaos; by show’s end, the rival sides were trading blows as poison-hot as the Survivor Series hype.
Backstage, Lesnar reportedly returned to the ramp to inspect the slick spot, even gesturing to teammates. Meanwhile, reaction online exploded — memes flew, jokes were cracked, and comparisons were made to wrestling’s most famous blunders.
Mixed Reactions: Embarrassing Botch or Great Recovery?
Opinion among fans was split. Some felt the slip destroyed Lesnar’s aura: “The Beast” — feared, dominant, virtually unstoppable — had suddenly looked vulnerable. The imagery of him toppling on a simple entrance ramp felt jarring, even uncharacteristic for such a dominant force.
But others saw the silver lining. Lesnar bounced back. He laughed it off, kept his composure, and walked straight into the ring for one of the most chaotic segments of the night. For them, this wasn’t a sign of weakness — it was a show of resilience.
Redemption or Reputational Hit? What It Means for Survivor Series
With Survivor Series just days away, this botch might end up doing more good than harm — at least storytelling-wise. Cakewalks are boring; what fans love is unpredictability. Lesnar’s slip added humanity, tension, and a bit of humility to a character usually portrayed as unstoppable.
And thanks to the quick recovery and backstage checks, the WWE has signaled they’re aware: mistakes happen, but what counts is how you respond. If Survivor Series sees Lesnar deliver his usual Mayhem-inciting brutality — none of this will matter. If he stumbles again, though… well, that might not be as easy to laugh off.
