Seth Rollins reveals how he 'won Brock Lesnar over' after a rocky start with Beast Incarnate in WWE
Brock Lesnar is not an easy man to win over and as Seth Rollins revealed, it takes some time.
During a sit-down chat with Stone Cold Steve Austin on Broken Skull Sessions, Rollins revealed how working with The Beast Incarnate is not an easy task early on.

So how did he win him over? With a bucket of Coors Light, of course.
“I really enjoyed working with him,” Rollins said of their match at WrestleMania 35. “I learned a lot from him and I knew he likes Coors Light, so I had a nice bucket of Coors Light in his locker room, just as a thank you.
“I think that really won him over. We sat down after and had a couple of drinks. Sorry to ruin your mystique, Brock, but you’re actually a nice guy when you wanna be,” Rollins said with a smile.
Of course, Rollins and Lesnar would open the show that night, something most unusual for a world title encounter at WrestleMania.

There were three huge babyface victories on the night with Kofi Kingston, Rollins and his now-wife, Becky Lynch, all claiming world titles.
But Rollins says it was Lesnar who suggested they open the show.
"Initially when the card first came out, we were supposed to go on right before them [first women's main event].
“Brock was like 'No, we need to do something different. It's going to hurt both matches if they're back-to-back... It's going to take the wind out of the sails of both finishes.

“'We need to switch this up, let's do something we've never done. Let's go on first.'
"It took some convincing to push Vince in that direction, but within an hour of the show, we didn't make the switch until an hour of going out."
Rollins had worked with Lesnar before, but they hadn’t jived as well in the early stages.
After Rollins cashed-in on Lesnar during WrestleMania 31, they would face each other at the next pay-per-view, Battleground.
However, the story was really about the return of The Undertaker and Lesnar wasn’t happy he was the last to know on the day.

“But he [Brock Lesnar] was like, ‘They’re gonna remember me and ‘Taker going off, so why do you wanna do all this cr*p?
“No one’s gonna care. Just tell a simple story, we’ll get to the end, and we’ll do the business with ‘Taker at SummerSlam.
“Sorry, but that’s how it is.’

“I remember being heartbroken. I remember being like, ‘Man, why is this guy like this? He doesn’t wanna work with younger talent? What is this bullcr*p?’
“But I didn’t get it, man. I didn’t see the bigger picture,” Rollins said.
