Zach Gowen Opens Up On his match With Brock Lesnar

WWE signed one-legged wrestler Zach Gowen in 2003, and he spent a short time with the Blue Brand. The 40-year-old was embroiled in feuds with TV moguls of the day, including Vince McMahon and Brock Lesnar.

He seems to have opened up about his match with Lesnar recently.

Brock Lesnar became a full-fledged heel again in August 2003, regularly targeting Babyface on SmackDown.

On August 19, 2003, while taping for SmackDown, he met Zach Gowen in a singles match and brutally beat him in front of his mother.

As a result, Gowen defeated Beast Incarnate by disqualification. Although Gowen was released from his contract with WWE in early 2004, he still continues to operate in an independent field.

While discussing his singles match with Brock Lesnar on an August 2003 episode of SmackDown, Zach Gowen said of a recent episode of “The False Finish” that the match was the most violent of all time. He said he felt it was one of the most intriguing matches.

“As I get there [to ‘SmackDown’], they tell me the idea of me and Brock, which I’m really ecstatic about because I’m like, ‘I know we can do something really, really special here, I know it.’”

“All the pieces are there, and we put the match together and it’s one of the most violent matches in WWE history.”

“It was only five, six minutes long. They needed Brock to be hated, and creative thought to themselves, ‘How can we get Brock [hated]?’ Like you said, beat up the local kid with one leg in front of his mom, bloody mess.
