Maven On Taking First Televised F-5 From Brock Lesnar, ‘Once He Grabbed Me, I Realized I’m A Child To Him
Maven has a number of distinctions during his WWE career, including winning the first season of “Tough Enough.” An under-the-radar accolade for Maven was taking the first televised F-5 from Brock Lesnar.
Speaking to Chris Van Vliet on Insight, Maven looked back on taking the F-5.
“There was no telling me how I’m gonna take it. It’s ‘I’m gonna grab you, put you up on my shoulders.’ ‘What do you need from me Brock?’ ‘Nothing, just lay flat.’ He’s like, ‘I’ll do the rest.’ And he did. I even asked him while we were working on it during the day. I was like, ‘Do you need me to hoist myself up? You need me to boost?’ He laughed at me. He said, ‘No, I got you.’ And then once he grabbed me, I realized I’m a child to him. Literally, the way you probably run and grab and pick your two-year-old up, that’s how he was with me,” said Maven.
Elsewhere during the interview, Maven commented on his future in wrestling. You can find his full comments here.
