| In professional wrestling slang, the
term to Brock means to botch
the biggest move in the biggest match, or to double-clutch (see pro-wrestling slang) on the top rope.
The term is derived from Brock Lesnar's mishap during the main event of
WrestleMania XIX. This featured Brock Lesnar versus Kurt Angle in a World Wrestling Entertainment Championship match, Brock attempted a Shooting Star Press and nearly broke his neck in the attempt, forcing
Angle to improvise a finish in the ring. It was the first time he used the move in a televised WWE match (though he had used it
previously in OVW), and was allegedly supposed to end the match with this move instead of his
patented F5.
